International Grand Illusionist Ryan Joyce

Recent Photographic Work

by Ryan Joyce on Jul.25, 2010, under Pictures

Kinetic Elements - Kendra Hughes

Wanted to share some “recent” photographic work I did for my good friend Kendra Hughes and her dance company Kinetic Elements.  They recently performed at the Toronto Fringe Festival and since I owe Kendra a bunch of favours :) I gracefully offered the use of my lens and natural talent to make photographic mistakes.  The show was excellent.
I say recent because I’m playing ketchup catch up on the blogski and recent for me could be Christmas.

Kendra also worked with us on some choreography elements to an illusion that is re-appearing in the 2010 tour.

Anywho, hope you enjoy.

Criss Who?

Ryan Joyce and Criss Angel parody

Timothy Drake as Criss Angel & Ryan Joyce as Me

Back in what feels like a year ago, we were the closing act at the Canadian Association of Magicians National Convention held in Kitchener, ON.  Last minute we decided to have some fun.  From beginning to end we died of laughter this video was conceived, shot and edited in 16 hours.

Special thanks to my buddy Gord Gardiner for some comedic genius!

Walter Blaney’s Visit

Walter Blaney's Visit to Canada - Ryan Joyce, Tim Drake

Walter Blaney Visits

Ryan Joyce, Walter Blaney and Timothy Drake

Several years ago I had the fortune of being introduced to a legend in the magic business, Walter “Zaney” Blaney.  Since then I’ve had the fortune of getting to know Walter – learning from him and about him.  He is an amazing man.

When people ask who would be your influences or aspire to be I can’t help but wish for an ounce of Walter’s talents, kindness and spirit!

A great week was had by all!

Tour Update: Sad Sick Little Lights.

by Ryan Joyce on Jul.22, 2010, under News

Ryan Joyce International grand illusionist

We’ll we are gearing up for the 2010 tour and as expected lots of positive; mixed with a little ice and a liquor of choice and some negative.  After the ‘explosion’ that took place 10 minutes before our Kitchener show… the one that destroyed every piece of lighting equipment I own…the lights are still not back from repairs.  This shall be interesting.

Perhaps by the 2011 tour they’ll be ready :)

A few new surprises in this years show;  if I mentioned they wouldn’t be a surprise… but knowing me I’ll be too excited to keep it in for too long.

The tour schedule will be posted shortly… stay tuned.

I hate admitting it….

by Ryan Joyce on Mar.29, 2010, under News

Victoria's masterpiece

One of the lines in my script is  ”I need someone close to my age… 28….” on and on…

It gets a laugh.  Every time.

Funny thing is its not a joke :) . Not sure if I should be flattered because the  laughter means I look younger…  all of me knows it’s the other way around :)

Oh well… March 27 was birthday number 29, we had some good celebrations at Vic and Andrew’s.  Great night, great friends, amazing cake :)

I think I am going to stop counting up the birthdays… but still partake on the cake eating part.

Best,
Ryan

Pushing A Car…

by Ryan Joyce on Mar.28, 2010, under News

Have you ever helped someone move a stalled car?

The first few seconds seem impossible, but all it takes is a few ounces of momentum.  The car starts to move and things get a whole lot easier.

Things have been very busy, this post is short but powerful.  It’s not about the exertion… its about the momentum.

Happy New Year!!!!

by Ryan Joyce on Jan.01, 2010, under News

Happy New Year from all of us at Theatrix International Inc.

Well  it’s officially 2010.

Happy New Year!  Wishing everyone a successful 2010.

With another year in the basket; its customary for people start weighing sizing themselves up and making short lived resolutions.

No official resolutions this year, however there are some exciting projects in the works that I am fortunate to be a part of.

2009 is gone, cheers to a New Year with new adventures.

Best,

Ryan
