I booked Paul for my husband’s birthday; he was just brilliant!!!! it was a small family group ages ranged 12 to 87yrs. Paul read the group perfectly. Not only were his tricks amazing but he also had a fantastic sense of humour. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. *****

Wedding Magician
Nothing enthrals wedding guests more than a lively close-up magician and provides a great way to keep your guests entertained. During the photograph session, after the speeches or during the evening party are ideal times when I can enthral your guests with mindboggling magic. It brings a special atmosphere to the day which everyone can enjoy.
It also adds a special feature to the occasion that gets great reactions and people talk about for ages.

My amazing close-up magic is a jaw dropping experience which is great fun to watch and amazing to enjoy. Close-up magic is hard to beat for its entertainment value and versatility and suitable for a wide range of events including dinners, parties, anniversaries, almost any special occasion.

Cabaret Magician
I also perform a comedy style ‘stand-up’ magic act. It’s great entertainment for an audience of 15 to 100 people. It’s especially suitable for family get-togethers, after dinner entertainment, fund raising events, banquet events and small-scale theatre venues.
As well as several tricks including members of the audience is the dramatic levitation of a volunteer and the classic sawing a person in half. Running from 20 to 50 minutes it can be tailored to suit your evening and provide some fantastic ‘live’ entertainment for all ages from teens upwards.
