 Think It Again, Sam: Marc Salem's
Mind Games And All That Jazz
Marc
Salem's psychic serenade combining Mentalism and music opens June 27th at
NYC’s Feinsteins at the Regency. "Mind Games And All that
Jazz" brings a new slant to mind reading by highlighting material
that is musically oriented; that music in particular being jazz.
Incorporating elements of Salem's previous successful show,
"Mind Games," this new production features Vibrations, a four
piece, all woman band. Vibrations provide interstitial music to
open and close the show as well as interacting with master mind
Salem. The addition of music to his presentation is both a nod
to broadening the appeal of what is basically a one man
show/platform demonstration and an opportunity to expand the
envelope of psychic entertainment. ...Go
to full story.(5/22)

Woody Allen's latest movie, Picking up the Pieces, where
"...he fantasizes he's a magician performing a trick and
takes a chain saw to his unfaithful wife Candy, played by Sharon
Stone" is having trouble getting a theatrical release. It
seems that her severed hand is found in the desert and it becomes
a religious shrine -- curing the people which come in contact with
it. The townspeople in the movie believe that hand belongs to the
Virgin Mary -- and some movie distributors feel it is in poor
taste. Until it gets a theatrical release Cinemax worked out a
deal to air it on Friday May 26 at 8pm ET. Lou Lumenick writes that "Allen, who appears to have
written or improvised many of his own lines, gives a daring,
hilarious performance as Tex - his best in years. To read the May
23 New York Post article titled "Woody Goes Straight To
Cable" click: HERE.(5/26)

Maskelyne featured as "Maxim's Man Of The Year" in an
article by Charles Coxe titled "Poof! Daddy" in their
Circus Maximus section. Several of Maskelyne's adventures during
WWII are recounted, when he served for the British forces in Egypt
-- fooling German bombers into attacking fake armies and cities.
He managed to save the Suez Canal and the port of Alexandria from
being taken over by the German armies. Eventually he was placed on
the Gestapo's blacklist. The article concludes with, "All
that, and he never once got to date Claudia Schiffer. Life is
unfaire." The article appears in the June issue of Maxim,
which is available at most magazine stands.(5/28)
