Event Description

Deceptive Practice: The Mysteries and Mentors of Ricky Jay

February 9th  – 2 PM, Academy of Music

General Admission: $8 Advance/$10 Door

Film Screening of the documentary “Deceptive Practice: The Mysteries and Mentors of Ricky Jay.”  Ricky Jay is a world-renowned magician, author, historian and actor (often a mischievous presence in the films of David Mamet and Paul Thomas Anderson) -- and a performer who regularly provokes astonishment from even the most jaded audiences. DECEPTIVE PRACTICE traces Jay's achievements and influences, from his apprenticeship at age 4 with his grandfather, to such now-forgotten legends as Al Flosso, Slydini, Cardini and his primary mentors, Dai Vernon and Charlie Miller. Featuring rare footage from his 1970s TV appearances (doing 3-card Monte with Steve Martin on The Dinah Shore Show) and told in Jay's inimitable voice, this is a remarkable journey inside the secretive world of magic and the small circle of devotees who are its perpetual devotees. Special guests will be present for a Q&A after the film.
