"Deceptive Practice: The Mysteries and Mentors of Ricky Jay"


Steve Martin is onstage at the Warner Grand in San Pedro for a 1991 TV special featuring Ricky Jay: "Learned Pigs and Fireproof Women." The footage is included in "Deceptive Practice: The Mysteries and Mentors of Ricky Jay" (Kino Lorber, 2012). Molly Bernstein directed.



Steve Martin and Ricky Jay offstage right at the Warner in a clip from "Learned Pigs..." The dimmerboard we see has been removed and is now in storage. The rigging got replaced with a new counterweight system.



Another look offstage right.

See the pages about the Warner Grand on the Los Angeles Theatres site for a history of the building and many photos. It's currently doing well as a performing arts center owned by the City of Los Angeles.
