Anniversary Edition Ultimate Chair Test (Stage) by Luca Volpe and Alan Wong

15 Years Ago Luca Volpe published his Ultimate Chair Test Act, and it was a blast in the mentalism community! Performers like Chuck Hickok, Richard Osterlind, and many other professionals raved about it. This routine has been performed all around the world by top mentalists!

After years, it is now available again, but fully updated and with the full props included so you can perform it straight out of the box!

As always, the Professional Line of props, released by Luca Volpe and Alan Wong, is designed with the performer in mind. This allows you to confidently present it on any stage without any failure.

There are no electronics or anything that can go wrong. You are in full control of the routine from start to finish.

It contains many moments of amazement and will guarantee you a standing ovation! Plus it can be personalized with the company message, making it perfect for corporate shows!

The act comes with everything you need to perform right out of the box and includes:

• A combination-lock box
• Custom-made manila envelope and gimmick
• Bulldog clip with a string
• Four plastic placemats (A4 size) each with a little clip for easy lifting from the floor. On the front of each placemat, a colorful image is printed.
• Four brown customized tick envelopes with printed numbers on the back
• Colored A5 pieces of paper (yellow, blue, red, and green)
• Opaque switch bag
• Four plastic A4 sleeves with four of the same colorful images as the placemats

You also get:

• PDF with detailed instructions
• Full Workshop Video Download with full performance

EFFECTA randomly chosen audience member freely selects a banknote, which is then secured in a sealed envelope around their neck for the duration of the presentation. Four placemats with a big X on the back, are positioned on stage, and four volunteers are invited to participate. Each volunteer can then choose where to stand behind a placemat.

A locked box with a combination dial is displayed prominently on a table throughout the experiment. Each participant is offered the opportunity to attempt unlocking the box by entering any combination they wish. Unsurprisingly, none will succeed.

Four numbered envelopes, clearly marked 1 through 4, are presented. The spectator with the secured envelope shuffles them face down to ensure randomness. Each volunteer then freely selects an envelope, showing then the chosen sequence. A bag containing four colored, crumpled paper balls is shown. Each participant chooses a ball without revealing its color.

The anticipation builds as the spectator wearing the secured envelope opens it and reads aloud the final four digits of the banknote's serial number. Remarkably, these digits unlock the previously unyielding box!

Inside, the spectator retrieves another envelope, which holds a written prediction.

The prediction details:

The precise order in which the participants selected the numbered envelopes (e.g., 3-1-4-2).
A perfect description of the participant's clothing who chose the blue paper ball. (e.g., brown trousers, blue shirt, dark blue jumper).

The Final Revelation:
The four envelopes are opened, revealing cards with colorful images. As each participant lifts their placemat, behind each one is the exact image they are holding, culminating in a perfect match!


Finale:
When the four images are turned over, a customized message for the event is revealed, spelled out in perfect order.

Reviews from the original manuscript"Just purchased and read the routine. AMAZING routine! I have been performing a similar multiple climax routine for years. The BOLD MOVE alone is worth 10 times the price of the manuscript. I never thought of that and I am glad I learned this subterfuge now. Priceless! From the viewpoint of a professional, I must say this is really a worker's routine and a dream effect. What appeals to me is the flexibility of the routine, which means you can adjust all the various effects to your needs and style. Make it bigger or smaller as you want. I am very happy with this product. Thank you Luca Volpe for this very very good piece and Vanishing Inc Magic for making it available for us!"

"Very clever routine with some strong ideas."
- Chuck Hickok

"I used to close my show for a while. It was a jaw dropper that got me a standing ovation. There are some aspects of it that are tricky to pull off as a 1 man show that sometimes took away from the awe of it. But i Think this is absolutely worth the money and the work. Great closer for a stage show."
