Joshua Jay Masterclass Live Week 1

Session 1: Josh’s Favorite Tricks – Dec. 1, 2024 (4pm ET | NYC Time)

Join Josh as he reveals a mind-blowing new, unpublished trick called “Nameless Ship”. A borrowed and signed dollar bill is transformed into a functional matchbook. This is an unusual and impossible object that audiences post to social media and keep forever, ensuring they’ll never forget you. “Nameless Ship” is Josh’s go-to effect when he needs to leave a lasting impression and the one trick magicians have been clamoring to learn after seeing Josh tease it at Magifest and other magic conventions.

Other highlights include “The Wager”, a reworked coin trick that Eugene Burger used to completely fool Josh (you will use this). Total Recall is a completely impromptu, borrowed-deck version of Simon Aronson’s all-time classic “Shuffle-bored” that is a true worker and is the perfect card trick for parlor performances. Josh pairs this with updated handlings on some of his other most popular effects—”Casual Cassandra” and “Shadow”—that have never been recorded anywhere else like the.

Pepper in Josh’s philosophy of magic combined with candid stories about the successes and failures of his creative pursuits, as well as stimulating conversations about the the importance of collaboration, and you end up with a lecture that’s worth the price of this Masterclass on it’s own. And that’s just week 1!
