SAK Comedy Lab Event

One of the Magic Center's favorite annual events, the SAK Comedy Lab show and Q&A talk-back session will be held Saturday, Jan. 18, 2020, at 1 p.m. at SAK Comedy Lab, 29 S. Orange Ave., Orlando.
SAK's hilarious players entertain with a family-friendly improv show, then answer questions from Magic Center OMERs about the tactics they use to be able to think on their feet more effectively. These skills help teams take their spontaneous problem-solving to the next level.
Tickets are $12 each, and team members, coaches, parents and siblings all are invited. Seating is limited, and when capacity is reached, a wait list will be started.
Coaches must follow the registration instructions to the letter for two reasons: SAK requires advance payment, and accurate record-keeping is vital to a smoothly run event.
To register, coaches must:

Complete the Register for SAK Event form and include all of the information requested. Only one registration per team please! Include all attending team members, coaches, siblings and parents on one registration.
Collect all parents from their team.
Send a single check*, made payable to FLOMA or Anna Long, for the full amount of your team's requested tickets to be received no later than Friday, Jan. 3, 2020. The mailing address is Anna Long, 5633 Donnelly Circle, Orlando, FL 32821.

If payment is not received by the Jan. 3 deadline, the coach will be notified that the team's registration has been deleted and that its spots have been offered to wait-listed teams. Teams with deleted registrations that attend regardless will be turned away at the door. We appreciate your understanding.
When payment is received, the coach will be emailed a receipt with ticketing instructions.
Join us for a fantastic opportunity to laugh and learn!

* We also will accept online credit card payments. A convenience fee, based on the cost of the tickets ordered, will be charged. If you are interested in this option, click the button in the registration form, and an online invoice will be sent to you within 48 hours. After receiving this invoice, you have the option to pay by check instead if you prefer to avoid the convenience fee.

Kits to Make Coaches' Jobs Easier!

Spontaneous Kits

Theatrical Makeup Kits

Coaches can save the time and effort of coming up with spontaneous problems and the materials to do them by ordering a spontaneous kit from the Magic Center.
This year's kit contains 10 verbal problems, 7 verbal/hands-on problems and 7 hands-on problems. Kits include everything your team will need to solve the problem except for markers, scissors, masking tape and a container to hold response cards. No problems have been repeated from past kits.
The cost is $25. To order, complete the Spontaneous Kit Order form and bring a check or cash (exact change, please!) to an upcoming New Coaches Training or Spontaneous Workshop. If you would prefer to pay by credit card, click the invoice box on the order form. A $1.35-per-kit convenience fee will be added to the invoice for credit card payments. Kits can be picked up at any coaches training or spontaneous workshop.

Coaches may order theatrical makeup kits as part of the Magic Center's bulk order.
