Card magic doesn’t have to stay small. Standup Card Magic is the missing link between close-up card tricks and commanding a room full of people. While thousands of card books focus on the tabletop, this one asks a bigger question: how do you make card magic play strong for banquets, theaters, trade shows, and corporate stages? Roberto Giobbi—author of Card College and one of the most respected teachers in magic—answers that question from real-world experience. This isn’t theory for theory’s sake. Every idea, sleight, and routine has been pressure-tested in front of paying audiences. Giobbi starts by redefining what standup card magic actually is—and why it’s different from close-up. You’ll learn how to choose the right spectators, bring them onstage smoothly, manage their behavior, and keep the focus exactly where you want it. From there, he breaks down the specific sleights and techniques that read clearly at a distance, followed by detailed explanations of professional routines built to hit hard for larger crowds. What makes this book special isn’t just the tricks—it’s the thinking. You’re shown how to adapt close-up material for the stage, how to construct card magic that scales up without losing clarity, and how to develop your own standup routines long after you’ve finished the last chapter. If you’ve ever felt boxed in by close-up-only card magic, this book opens the door. Clear methods. Strong structure. Bigger reactions. Standup Card Magic is the guide for card magicians ready to step away from the table, raise their fees, and let their card work finally fill the room.
