Magic shows are best for events where you want to get everyone ‘together’ for a shared magic experience. They work best in a focused environment.
Your guests experience more magic with a show than with close up magic. Usually shows last 20 to 40 minutes rather than 6-8 minutes per group of close up magic. Shows also give that collective ‘magic moment’ and fill a room with laughter and applause.
Christopher has diverse types of magic shows to suit different sizes and styles of events. He is a Magic Circle magician with many years of professional experience, has appeared at The Magic Castle in Hollywood and has a solid track record of satisfied clients and critics live, on television and in theatres worldwide.
