January 1971
Creation of “The Light Fingers” with the act “The Pianist” (act copyright), linking Black Art magic and short clown skits. James Hodges draws the costume for the character and collaborates in the adjustment of some magical effects and of the pantomime and comedy parts.
After a few months of experience, Michelle & Ernest recast the act : it comes down from 14 to 8 minutes, condensing the scenario, reducing the pantomime part, adding magic effects and doing a new sound track’s arrangement.
