good ending to a show

[Road Mage]

Figo,

I currently end my show with this trick. We'll have a proper session about it when I get to Glasgow if you want mate.

Figo,
here's a radical and scandalous thought................

Don't close your show with that trick!
It's NOT a closer.

Yes, it's a very effective & entertaining bit of business, but you can give your audience a better ending than THAT, can't you?

How bout you're attempting of something thruout the show.
could be anything from a physical/juggling stunt, to something easy like a magic "botania" (which I actually use). You try it twice thruout the show, to failure, and then, at the very end of the show (right after you get the correct cup without the nail underneath), you go back and FULFILL the trick/stunt, and the CROWD GOES NUTS FOR YA!!! CLOSER BABY!!!

good luck,

TC

I'm with Todd on this one. You could also fill one cup with lee press-on nails, and have a pleasant mistake surprise on route. Low-level original, but original.
