Schools
Attention Principals Or PTA / PTO:
Here's The Secret To Educational Assemblies, That Focus On Topics That Are Relevant To Your Curriculum Needs. Yet Highly Engaging!
This program, "The Simple MachineScience Show" is designed to take the science lessons of simple machines off the textbook pages and bring science to life.
How Science Comes To Life!
In this 45-50 minute program, some student participants will not only learn about an inclined plane, but actually ride up one. Through the use of custom made props designed specifically for this program, your students will see wheel and axle, pulleys, levers, a wedge and incline plane in action. The students will experience how simple machines can reduce man's effort, just like magic! Imagine some of your students being lifted by a first class lever.
How Much Space Will You Need For Your Program?
One of the reasons why this program is an effective learning tool for simple machines study is because of its many colorful props. The minimum space needed is 23 feet wide, left to right, and ten feet from front to back.
Comments from some of the teachers that booked this program.
"It was perfect! This program was everything we studied in class. It provided us with all the tools I could never do in my classroom"
"We plan to include Mr. Rick as part of our science unit yearly"
"This program was very appropriate and right on target with our simple machine unit. The children were better to see simple machines in action, with an explanation that they could easily understand. I would like to repeat this again next year. Very, very nice!!!"

Also Available for Elementary Schools."The Anti-Bully Program"
A Growing Social Problem That Can Effect Our Children's Ability To Learn,
And What You Can Do About It!
In recent years, bullying in schools has become such a serious problem, that legislation has been passed to help curb it. Schools and even law enforcement
agencies are taking bully prevention very serious.
WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT IT?
The experts seem to agree that educating the students through school
assemblies, should be a part of any bully prevention program. That is why
I developed the "Anti-Bully" magic show.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Let's face it, talking to children about bullying, can come off as a real boring
lecture.By adding mind-blowing magic, audience participation, interesting
stories, and music, your students will be more engaged and take the following
lessons to heart.
Your students will learn;
1. How to stop being bullied.
a. Ignore the bully.
b. Walk away.
c. Tell an adult
d. Tell the bully to stop.
e. Hang out with friends.
2. How to help others being bullied.
a. Stand up for the person.
b. Make them your friend.
c. Tell an adult.
3. Be a friend.
a. Befriend other children.
b. Everyone can be a friend no matter who you are.
The "Anti-Bully magic show is our newest program, and will be available after January 1, 2009.

Recent Comments From Librarians.
"Rick is an exceptionally talented magician and I highly recommend him for public libraries. He is wonderful about promoting reading during his show. He builds rapport with the audience. He is respectful to the audience members that he chooses to work with him on the stage. He is also aware whether everyone can see and offers pointers on how people can have a better vantage. His pacing and anecdotes are great. Additionally, he utilizes a sound system and music which are highly engaging. As you can tell, I can't say enough good things about this performer. If you try him out I guarantee that you will not be disappointed."

Attention PTA/PTO
Imagine Hosting A Family Fun Night That Is Well Attended And Possibly Cost Your School Nothing!
Many groups like to sponsor ice-cream socials, or family fun-nights. It is a great way to bolster fellowship, or a way to simply say thank you.
HERE IS A SURE FIRE SECRET THAT ALMOST GUARANTEES SUCCESS!!!!
In the annoucement of your event, mention that your group is going to host "The Magic and Illusion of Rick Allen." Feel free to download the appropriate photos from my website. Because magic is an entertainment that the whole family can enjoy, this program will be a sure-fire draw for your event. Be sure to let your group know that Rick will levitate someone from the audience!
Why "The Magic And Illusion Of Rick Allen?"
In this particular show, your audience will not only experience my mind-boggling levitation of someone from the audience, but will also see the baffling "Walk thru Glass" illusion. These are routines that you don't see in a lot of magic shows. Add to this fun audience participation, music accompanment, stunning appearance of beautiful white doves.
Rick, How Can We Possibly Get This Show For Free?
I have had some groups charge a small nominal fee to parents and school age children (younger children were free). In these instances, my reasonable fee was recovered and in some cases, a profit was realized for the school.
Comments From Teachers About My Magic Performances.
"How you kept 250 students listening for 60 plus minutes and so gently got them to quiet down was truly magical. You were very authentic despite probably having done the show hundreds of times."
