Can Your Performance Be Tailored to Our Event Theme?

Yes! Though it clearly depends on how you want it customised. I can certainly deliver your important message or brand value in a creative way. I work closely with organisers to ensure my performance aligns with your vision. It's all about enhancing your event's atmosphere and making sure the guests are fully engaged and entertained.

What Makes You Different from Other Magicians?

For me, it's all about audience engagement. I'm not interested in simply delivering a scripted routine that I've done hundreds of time before. For me, an event is a great success when those on stage and those in the audience, are working together to create an epic atmosphere. I've performed for every demographic and in many different contexts. My...

A Swing Band at Reception

Picture this: your guests arrive, stepping into a venue alive with the vibrant sounds of a swing band. It's not just music; it's an instant mood lifter, setting the tone for what's to come. The feel good music not only lifts spirits, but it's a conversation starter, an icebreaker, and perhaps even an excuse for a little impromptu dance on the way to their seats....

The Five Do's & Don'ts When Having Entertainment At Your Event

Entertainment can be the highlight of any event, but ensuring it enhances rather than detracts from the experience requires careful consideration. Here are five essential do's and don'ts to keep in mind when planning entertainment for your next event: 

Do's:

  1. Ensure Quality Sound and Lighting: Invest in a reliable PA system and lighting setup to enhance the performance of your entertainers. Avoid relying solely on in-house systems, especially in hotel venues where the quality is usually terrible. Not only that, but the hotel staff rarely have the technical knowledge to deal with issues or make improvements on the day. 

  2. Communicate in Advance: Inform your audience about the entertainment scheduled for the event beforehand. Surprising them with unexpected acts can lead to confusion and diminish the impact of the performance. Transparency builds anticipation and excitement among attendees.

  3. Keep It Short and Sweet: While entertainment adds HUGE value to your...

Award Ceremonies Redefined: When Comedy and Magic Spark Joy & Applause

In the sparkly world of Award Ceremonies, where achievements are lavishly celebrated, have you ever wondered what truly makes an award ceremony unforgettable? It's not just about the shimmering trophies or the prestigious accolades. It’s about creating moments that linger in memory long after the last round of applause fades away.

It's going to be way harder than you think to create peaks. But once you've done it, you're going to consider every ounce of effort worth it.”

Why a Comedy Magician is Your Best Bet for Engaging Events

In the world of event planning, there's always that one golden question: How do we make this event unforgettable and exceed our guests expectations? The answer might just be hidden up a comedy magician's sleeve! 

Bear with me, let's consider why hiring a comedy magician (you know, that's what I do, right?...) can transform your next corporate event, award ceremony, or charity gala from standard to spectacular.

  • The Magic Touch of Humour 

A stand up comedian friend that I often work with, always invites me to headline any show I'm working on with him. Why? Because even he believes that comedy combined with magic is unbeatable. If you're not a magic fan, but the magician has you belly laughing, then the fact you aren't into magic is forgotten and it's considered a win. Equally, if you don't align with the humour, but love the tricks, that's a win too. If you love both, then that's a total win-win scenario! It's a unique blend that not only...
