Being in the House is like being in a circus tent. The characters put on a show just by being there, and watching whatever happens during our cypher sessions- a frog appearing out of thin air, a one dollar bill vanishing and reappearing on a handicap man's shoulders in the form of four quarters, a 300 pound lady being levitated- adds astonishment to life. These guys are crazy, and sometimes I can barely stand their eccentricities. Philosophies clash, and new ones are salvaged. Egos are either high fived or slapped. Crowds are rocked. Arguements are splendid until spun out of control, and it's so funny to watch these guys go at it. I sit in the corner, one of the more quiet mages in this place, and take everything in as it happens like a spectator myself. I'm amazed at what this place has become. A cardboard carnival, playing cards flying everywhere, and a bunch of kids chasing down every last one.

About Me
- the house of flying cards
- Florida, United States
- The House of Flying Cards is an independent troupe of young performers from Florida who express themselves through the art of magic. Each individual in the House has their own creative way of breaking the mold of the traditional magician, with abilities, personalities, and performing styles as unique as they are astonishing. When united in performance, they play off one another in a jam session of mind-blowing happenings, and surround their audience like a wonder-house filled with cards flying everywhere. The mission of the House of Flying Cards is to create an alluring and original form of special events entertainment, as well as to promote individual expression through a performing art that has been largely confined to commercialized molds.
