Magic New Zealand® is proudly sponsored by International Entertainment



The night of December 27th 2008 to January 1st 2009, 1.00am

**Convention Bonus**


Late Sessions at the lounge
The late sessions are for people to gather in a less than formal environment and talk with each other about magic, possibly learn something, and perform some magic for each other, as they wind down from the days events. The start times will be 10 minutes after the end of the previous events on the daily schedule.

Both nights Greg Chapman will introduce the session, and then introduce the scheduled performers who will help get things rolling with a quick performance (or not so quick, as they choose). A short Q & A will follow. Conversations and close-up magic will likely continue amongst the night owls.

Saturday 27th December
Guest performers: Wayne Rogers & Guest #2 (to be confirmed)
Host: Greg Chapman
Q & A: Tips on Strolling? The guest performers will join the host in an informal Q & A, which people may join in conversation.

Monday 29th December
Guest performers: Steve Walker & Mike Easterbrook
Host: Greg Chapman
Q & A: Approaching a group (in a strolling situation). The guest performers will join the host in an informal Q & A, which people may join in conversation.

The Q & A sessions will likely be skipped if there are lay audience members present in the Waipuna lounge.
