Description
Our Magicians and Illusionists entertain with impressive sleight of hand, misdirection and dexterity of the digits, we’ll leave your guests amazed, astonished and scratching their heads in wonder! Our outstanding, award-winning magicians are members of the world famous Magic Circle and have performed all over the world.
When you hire a magician there are 3 main styles of performances, however by far the most popular style is Close Up Magic.
Close up Magician: Best suited for drinks receptions and table magic. The Close up Magician performs jaw dropping magic right in front of your guests own eyes- sometimes the magic even happens in their hands. This more intimate style of magic is hugely interactive and great for engaging guests in the entertainment.
Close up magic is very popular as it allows the guests to be as close to magic as possible. Tricks can include card tricks, rope, rubber bands or coins. They cab even use everyday objects borrowed from the guests or found on the dinner table.
Depending on the number of guests it may be more effective to hire multiple close up magicians. This will allow everyone the opportunity to get involved. This is a great ice breaker and is a popular roaming entertainment option.
A standard close up performance consists of 2 x 45 minute sets. We find this time frame works especially well at weddings. It allows guests to be entertained during the photos and again during dinner. Alternatively, they could be entertained right unto the beginning of the speeches.
If you require a magician for longer time period such as for at a corporate event we can provide this also. Just let us know your needs when you enquire to hire a magician or illusionist.
Magic Styles
Stage Magician: A stage magician provides a real element of mystery and wonder to your event. They usually include plenty of interactive comedy too. Magic is a classic that all guests can identify with in someway and you will see unbelievable visual magic with a huge selection of props.
When you hire a magician the stage shows may involve audience participation and can be spoken or silent – making them perfect for international audiences. Our standard stage show is a solo performance of 1 x 10 minute but most of our magicians have plenty more tricks up their sleeves.
We can provide a full 45 minute show on request. Just let us know what you need when you enquire. We also offer duo shows if you’re looking for something a little different.
Stage Illusionists: Our jaw dropping illusion shows will astound your guests with high energy, large scale, visual magic and a touch of sparkle and glamour. These heart stopping, fast paced shows are great for larger stages and venues or just to add that extra impact to your event.
Some of our illusionists can even magically make your CEO appear on stage or involve audience participation. Our illusion shows usually consist of a solo magician (plus assistants) providing 1 x 10 minute illusion show. They can offer up to 45 minutes so if you require a full evening show please let us know when enquiring to hire a magician or illusionist.
Performance
Got something specific in mind? We also have a selection of specialist acts including dove magic, children’s magic, mentalism (mind reading style magic) and more.
Please Note: Due to the nature of this performance our illusionists require venues with suitable access for large props (minimal stairs or alternative access) and the props must be able to be set somewhere safe where they will not be interfered with by guests prior to the performance if not on a stage.
Having a large event, need more magicians? No problem – we’ve got you covered. You can hire multiple close up Magicians who will work together to circle the room entertaining guests as they go.
We are happy to tailor set lengths to suit your event needs, just make sure you let us know what you need when you enquire to hire a magician.
