[edit] Request for member comments to assist NPOV
I have added a few paragraphs based on my visits to the Castle. My sense of enjoyment comes through, but perhaps a bit too much. It would be good to include observations from members or regular visitors so this doesn't read like an advertising brochure. My practice was always to bring lay friends with me, because my enjoyment was amplified by their amazement. Also, magicians generally perform better for a lay audience, which can be much better for learning. Obviously, technical discussion must be conducted separately. KSmrq 2005 June 29 00:56 (UTC)
[edit] New Section
I propose a new section of the list of "secrets" that the Castle is famous for. Just a suggestion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kingurth (talk • contribs) 13:49, August 29, 2006
[edit] Inaccuracies
the most famous magic club in the world
Not only is this NPOV, it isn't even remotely true. Has no-one heard of [The Magic Circle?]
The building is an authentic Victorian mansion built in 1908
Queen Victoria died in 1901. The mansion is Edwardian.

[edit] Penn and Teller?
P&T claim (eg: in this clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPyvAtQYVok&NR=1) that their version of the cups and balls trick with clear plastic cups got them thrown out of the Magic Castle. Worth mentioning? TheHYPO 05:35, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
