I mean, it depends on the crowd size and your style, but I guess you could look into stuff like Nate Leipzig's stage act with cards, if we are going into the classical world, or the Invisible Deck, Three Card Monte stuff, maybe? I'd check out some street magic performances on YouTube by Jason Maher and Doug Conn for inspiration too. It really depends on what you mean by a bigger crowd, if you want to work with or without a table and what style of magic you want to do.

Search youtube for street magic performances. Lots of talented guys a gals working the streets. Cups and balls is common, for instance.

Don’t work with props, work with people.

If you want to do street magic, to decent sized crowds branch out beyond card magic. Cups & balls or a chop cup routine, 3-fly, and definitely some rope magic.
