Six-Card Repeat - A venerable classic with the Finney touch, complete with a story that hangs it together and a pure show-biz ending.
Professor's Nightmare - A trick many have discounted comes to life in the hands of a comedy master.
" No" - It's an old gag but with the right timing, can still send an audience into convulsive laughter.
1-2-3-4 - A surprising piece of mentalism that stuns even jaded comedy club audiences.
Lady Rope Routine - One of Michael Finney's trademark pieces. This is the multi-phase routine that has taken him around the world.
Sponge Ball Routine with Watch Steal - Two sponge balls, a spectator, a missing watch and a whole lot of laughs!
Card on Forehead - Michael's other signature piece; a routine that has everyone in stitches and the guy on stage wondering what's so funny!

Motivational Speech - This is a rare and extremely candid glimpse into the mind and heart of a top professional. In this segment, Michael opens himself up to the audience (and to you) as he relates the story of his rise up the show business ladder. Hear how Michael overcame tremendous obstacles to reach his goals and he will surely inspire you to reach for the stars in your own career ... and life! What's more, he shares many of the promotional ideas and marketing tools he uses to maintain his position as one of America's busiest performers.
