Follow on Google News | Magic Classes Re-Appear at Houston Museum of Natural ScienceDue to popular demand, magician Richard Hatch returns to the Houston Museum of Natural Science for three days only to teach magic classes on July 31, August 1 and August 2, 2011. Students will be required to sign the magicians' oath of secrecy.
By: Richard Hatch "Theatrical Magic is based on scientific principles," All students will be required to sign a non-disclosure agreement regarding the material in the class. "This is the traditional Magician's Oath of Secrecy," explains Hatch. "It is really not to protect the secrets, but to protect the audience from unwanted exposure to those secrets. Harsh experience over many centuries has shown that most non-magicians are disappointed to learn that "magic" is based on science, rather than something more mysterious. So magicians have learned that the best way to preserve an audience's experience of wonder is not to spoil that emotion by revealing the science behind it." Each two hour workshop will begin at 6 p.m. at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. Students must be age 15 or over and the class size is strictly limited to 25 in order to private individual attention to students. To register for the classes, visit the Museum website here: http://www.hmns.org/ or call (713) 639-4629 About the instructor: Richard Hatch holds two graduate degrees in Physics from Yale University, but finds it easier apparently to violate the laws of nature than to discover them.
