Your Act, Your Colors
You can order props such as foulards, bags for various props (linking rings, cups and balls, different sized cards) in a chosen palette of colors.
Working with Color to Make your Act Pop!
How do we present our props, silks, table cloths, etc.? Sparkles can make props appear more expensive. Do our props follow a color scheme in our act? Mickey Hades wrote several books on colors for props. He favored primary colors with white and black as basic color themes.
Saturated colors work better on stage than pastels. Pick timeless colors such as Orange over Peach, Kelly green over Celadon, Royal Blue over Sky Blue. Decide between Red and Burgundy. Decide between Gold and Yellow. The colors used to mix secondary colors such as Purple or Brown change every year and in every country, so if you choose purple for your stage, get an entire roll of purple or brown fabric. You will never get a repeat. These colors will last longer for your act than trending colors of the year.
Magic is a fluid art form. You can experiment with your own collection of colors. The colors of your props should give you a boost of dopamine. Your act, your colors, your individuality.
