Dynamite In A Small Package by Doc Dixon

Build a stage act around audience interaction, using just a deck of cards and a marker. In Dynamite in a Small Package, Doc Dixon teaches a five-routine set designed to entertain for up to 20 minutes while keeping the focus on the people in the room.

The 60+ page book covers how to shape the routines into a complete act, with two minutes of preparation before showtime. Use the full set or keep it ready as a compact stand-up act when you need one.

• Five stage routines: The set includes a visible opener, spectator comedy, card magic, and audience-participation effects.
• Plays to a large audience: The routines are designed to make the performance engaging beyond the cards themselves.
• Small prop list: The act calls for a deck of cards and a marker.
• Practical guidance: Dixon explains routine selection and how audience interaction can shape the entertainment.
• Bonus discussion: The book includes a password-protected link to a discussion with magician Michael Misko.

Take the set to a stage or after-dinner show, where a few simple props leave room for the audience to become the memorable part of the performance.
