"The Art of the Steal" combines the entertainment aspects of the show with "The Serious Side of Stealing," and incorporates advice on how not to become a victim of international scams. This option includes a visual exposé on various con games likely to be encountered by worldwide business travellers. The message behind the performance
suggests how easy it is to become a victim and how gullible we all are to con-men and their gimmicks.
"The Illicit Acquisition Game" is yet another variation on the theme. This presentation is geared toward sales representatives, marketing executives, and others who may find it beneficial to know who they're dealing with in the day-to-day business game. In this presentation, the entertainment is entwined around a lesson: how to judge an opponent based on the image he projects, and thereby gain an advantage by selecting a strategy.
