Masterclass 2: July 12, 2026 (4pm ET | NYC Time) Impossible Journey: A multi-phased card transposition that escalates beautifully. A selection is sandwiched between the tabled Kings, and an indifferent card is placed under a glass bowl. In a stunning climax, the sandwiched card appears under the bowl — and a signed selection from the deck appears between the Kings. Not Expected Flush: A tight, one-minute gem. The four Aces are placed on the table. One is placed back onto the deck — but immediately returns to join the others. Then, in a moment nobody sees coming, all four Aces change to the royal flush. The Fastest Trick in the World: "I want to show you the fastest card trick in the world. But I didn't say the best!" Dominqiue jokes. In an instant, two red Queens transform into the four Aces. Fast, funny, and completely disarming. Signature Deck: Dominique shares something deeply personal: a blank deck bearing over 500 signatures from people he has performed for throughout his career. He then turns one of these cards into a named playing card. Wild Card: Dominique's handling of the Wild Card plot, in which eight Aces of Spades cleanly and visually turn blank one by one. At the end, every card can be freely examined. Running Gag: Introducing his concept of "demystify to mystify better," Dominique performs a full routine in which he openly exposes the concept of lapping — and then challenges the audience to catch him doing it. Published here for the very first time, this has been one of his prize performance pieces for over fifty years. The Blank Cards: A beautiful and puzzling effect in which the backs of four blue-backed blank cards repeatedly change to red-backed blank cards and back again. Simple in premise, startling in execution. The Card That Almost Doesn't Exist: A card vanishes in a way that is genuinely strange — not just technically surprising, but conceptually interesting. Toulagli: An asymmetrical transposition built around the four Aces. Dominique finds the Aces, then finds the selection. Then, in two separate and surprising moments of magic, the Aces and the selection change places — and then back again. Joker Collectors: A squeaky-clean Sandwich routine with a visual twist: a blue-backed selection appears between two tabled red-backed Aces. The colour contrast makes the impossibility completely undeniable. Joker Salt Shaker Without Salt Shaker: A blockbuster closer inspired by Albert Goshman's legendary Salt Shaker routine. A purse appears, vanishes, and transposes — along with the coins inside it — in a routine that showcases just how far Dominique is willing to go to turn a single idea into a masterpiece. Moves Dominique also gives a deep dive into three moves that he uses frequently in the Masterclass: Duvivier Double Cut: A double undercut that secretly maintains a break throughout. Elegant and entirely natural in handling. The Donald Move: Also known as Holding Clout. A versatile and deceptive sleight that appears throughout the Masterclass. Lapping: A thorough exploration of one of close-up magic's most powerful techniques, including how to set it up, execute it invisibly, and build it into performance-ready routines.
