Effervescent is a 180-page hardback beauty filled with amazing routines featuring fresh plots, streamlined methods and tons of playful audience interaction. While these effects were initially created for close-up work, many of them are scalable for larger parlor performances
âThereâs always real joy in reading a new book by Oliver Meech, and he manages to be both creative and practical, a rare combination. His tricks use unique plots, novel methods, and I really enjoyed the theory he shares about creativity too. A great book, and an appropriate title, as it will make your brain fizz!â Liam Montier

On Point

Coin Jar
A coin vanishes from a participant's hand and appears inside a sealed jar of pasta sauce that still has its safety button pressed down.
All of this and so much more!
âIâm a huge fan of Oliver Meech but there has always been one thing I didnât like about his material - there simply wasnât enough of it! Well, he has remedied that, and in spades. ... There is so much brilliant material to read, study and learn here that it confirms what some of us have known for a while: Oliver is a genius when it comes to creating clever, offbeat and fooling magic. Put this on your âBuy Immediatelyâ list.â Mark Elsdon
"The one word that best describes exploring Oliver Meechâs books and material over the years is simply âFUN!â And it must be all in capitals to emphasise just how fun it actually is!" Nikola Arkane
