Losander couldnāt have put on a more spectacular evening ā magical. It is the very best of āup close magicā. We have gone to other large magic shows in Las Vegas. They were very good, but this is special. The venue is quite small ~ 100 people. We were right up front. Therefore, we really saw up-close magic, rather than seeing it projected on some large screen. I wonāt go through every part of the performance because each was confounding. He did everything from levitation, to catching floating bubbles, to card tricks. The one my wife and I found unexplainable (as they all were) was that he came up to us with black electrical tape. He touched his thumb to his first finger to make a loop, then wound the tape tightly over the tips of the two fingers to make a closed loop. He did this about 18 inches in front of our faces. Then he took out a metal chain that was closed by a keyed lock which made a circle about 18 inches in circumference. He then took the closed loop chain and passed it through the closed loop of his fingers so that the chain was trapped in the loop of his fingers! I thought, well the chain has some special defect. He then asked for my wifeās purse, which had long leather looped handles. He took the purse and āmagicallyā passed the purse handles through his fingers! This was all done 18 inches in front of our face. At the end he unwound the tape and gave it to me. Up close magic doesnāt get better than this.
All during his performance he tells you stories about his history in Germany and how he learned magic. Also, note that the cost of this performance is quite modest compared to the shows on the strip.
