You'll learn how to turn imminent disaster into instant success."120 pages, 25 years of experience, over 200 put down lines and why you should be very careful about using them! - Duncan Trillo
"If you perform in front of an audience of strangers, it is likely that, at some point in your career, you will be heckled. How you handle this situation will, in some degree, determine your success as a performer. Conventional wisdom says to fire back with your best heckler stopper. The brilliance of Mr Fields book is that this is not his suggested course of action. In fact, he offers several strategies, the first of which is: ignore and carry on.
Not every heckler situation is the same and Mr Fields analyzes many different ones. Studying these scenarios will provide a performer with many more tools for their audience-interaction toolbox. Remember: If your only tool is the hammer (the heckle stopper), then you will see every problem as a nail. And there are many times that bringing down that big hammer is not the judicious thing to do.
...you should buy this book because it contains some of the best advice ever offered on audience control and management' - Michael Close Magic Magazine
