DON’T TELL JEEVES — by Sam Dalal
 
An original (we hope!) combination of one borrowed effect and one pinched method.
 
"Be a friend… just DON’T TELL JEEVES I DID IT. He’s still blaming that fella Geller for all the twisted cutlery around the house, and I’d rather he kept believing it."
This fun routine plays on the idea of spoon and fork bending without actually bending any real cutlery. Instead, pictures of twisted utensils are used for a visual and comedic presentation.
 
Spectators are handed cards showing cutlery, along with the instruction to concentrate — “BEND, SPOON, BEND” and “BEND, FORK, BEND.” To everyone’s surprise, the pictures really do change! The cards can be inspected, and there’s nothing tricky about them.
A lighthearted, interactive effect that’s easy to carry and perform, with plenty of room for humor and audience participation.
