Unfortunately, I think trying to tell it from any other perspective would leave out the basic information. If I tell it from the point of view of the audience, then you may not even realize it's not a normal trick, save for a couple of hints about the strange box. If I tell it from the volunteer's perspective, you get the visceral portion, but you don't get to know how the audience reacts. Both of those are important, and the only one who knows them both is the guy doing the trick. Otherwise, I'd be all about trying another draft from the perspective of the audience, butvto mee, it feels like it leaves out important information.
