SUMMARY:March 2026 Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:IBM Ring 60 – March 2026 Monthly Meeting\n\nChildren’s Magic with Trixie Bond\nEvery magician has performed for children at some point—and for many of us\, children’s shows aren’t just “something we do”… they’re the foundation of our careers and the bread-and-butter that keeps the calendar full. \nThis month\, IBM Ring 60 welcomes internationally acclaimed children’s show entertainer Trixie Bond for an energizing mini-lecture designed to pack decades of real-world experience into one practical\, inspiring evening. Whether you love kids’ shows or avoid them like a thumb tip full of glitter\, you’ll leave with stronger tools\, smarter thinking\, and material you can put to work immediately. \n\nMini-Lecture + Member Showcase\nAfter Trixie’s talk\, members are invited to bring and perform their favorite children’s show magic trick. This is your chance to share what plays big\, learn what others rely on\, and walk away with a list of audience-tested routines and ideas. \n\nLecture Highlights\nHere’s just a taste of what Trixie will cover: \n✨ Booking shows (and keeping them coming)✨ Character development that kids instantly connect with✨ Trick selection—what works\, what doesn’t\, and why✨ Handling difficult children (without losing the room) \nPlus\, Trixie will wrap up with a short Q&A\, so bring your questions and real-world challenges. \n\nAbout Trixie Bond\nFor magician Trixie Bond\, the future was practically written in the cards—her father named her to reflect his beloved craft of magic. As she grew up\, she embraced the art wholeheartedly: cards\, sleight of hand\, classic stage magic\, and the kind of showmanship that keeps audiences laughing\, leaning in\, and wanting more. \nToday\, Trixie is one of the most popular magicians in the Southwest\, with a career that spans children’s entertainment\, corporate events\, country clubs\, theaters\, and prestigious venues like The Magic Castle and Houston’s legendary Magic Island\, where she performed close-up for five years as the first (and still only) female house magician. \nHer expertise has even been called on by film and television producers\, and her performance stories are the kind you don’t forget—like doing magic barefoot in a mosque… and on the lawn of the White House. \n\n🎩 Whether you’re building a kids-show act\, sharpening your current one\, or just want to understand what truly works with children—this meeting is for you. Bring a trick\, bring questions\, and get ready for a fun\, practical night of Ring 60 magic. \n  \n \n															\n															\n															\n																														 \nBurt Rosenbluth Presents: A Rich Tapestry of Magic — The Legend of Dunninger\nStep into a night of mystery\, history\, and mind-reading mastery as IBM Ring 60 welcomes the always-engaging Professor Burt Rosenbluth for a deep and fascinating presentation on one of the most influential mentalists of all time: Joseph Dunninger. \nIf you’ve ever wondered where modern mentalism truly began—why certain techniques still hit like thunder a century later—or how a single performer helped shape what audiences believe is possible… this is the meeting you don’t want to miss. \nBurt isn’t just bringing a talk. He’s bringing a Rich Tapestry of Magic—a vivid journey through Dunninger’s methods\, mythology\, and impact\, presented with the kind of clarity and spark that makes you feel like you’re attending a secret lecture in a candlelit classroom. \nAnd if you’ve seen Burt present before\, you already know: his talks are always enlightening\, always educational\, and never boring.It’s not a lecture… it’s a magical masterclass. Honestly? It’s like a class at Hogwarts—only with more mind-reading. \n\nWhy Dunninger Matters (And Why This Matters to You)\nDunninger wasn’t just a performer—he was a cultural phenomenon. In the era of radio\, early television\, and the golden age of live stage entertainment\, Dunninger stood at the crossroads of showmanship and psychology\, mystery and method\, belief and deception. He became famous for feats that felt impossible: thought reading\, predictions\, uncanny revelations—done with confidence\, command\, and theatrical polish. \nIn Burt’s hands\, Dunninger becomes more than a name from the past. He becomes a living blueprint for the modern magician and mentalist—showing us how to: \n✨ Build credibility and authority onstage✨ Structure routines for maximum impact✨ Understand why audiences want to believe✨ Balance method with presentation so the mystery feels real✨ Create “legend” around your work—so people talk about you after the show \nWhether you perform close-up\, parlor\, stage\, or mentalism\, the lessons from Dunninger’s approach can sharpen your thinking and strengthen your performances immediately. \n🎩✨ Member Participation Announcement – Let’s See Your Kids’ Magic! ✨🎩 \nAfter Trixie Bond presents her engaging mini-lecture on Children’s Magic\, we’re turning the spotlight over to you! \nMembers are encouraged to bring and perform their favorite children’s show routine. Whether it’s a guaranteed laugh-getter\, a colorful classic\, a puppet bit\, a rope routine\, or that one trick that always saves the show — we want to see what works in the real world. \nThis is your chance to: \n✨ Share proven material✨ Test new ideas in a supportive environment✨ Learn what other performers rely on✨ Strengthen your children’s show repertoire \nChildren’s magic is more than tricks — it’s timing\, personality\, interaction\, and heart. Let’s learn from one another and build stronger shows together. \nBring a prop. Bring energy. Bring the fun. \n🎈 After Trixie’s lecture… the magic is in your hands! \n															\n			 \n📅 When: Tuesday\, March 3\, 2026🕖 Time: 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM📍 Where: Heroes Night Out (Heroes Resource Center)🏠 Address: 1150 South Bell Blvd.\, Cedar Park\, TX 78613
