Close-up magic is an all-involving piece of personal entertainment designed to be fun, mystifying and above all memorable. It is magic performed to small groups of people by a magician who carries all he requires on his person and who can move smoothly from one area to another providing an unusual mobile entertainment service. Because the performer is working to various small groups, he is able to totally involve the onlookers in a way that virtually no other type of entertainer can. Many people have never seen magic performed at close range, and it is a source of enormous fascination and amusement! Close-up magic is extremely versatile. It can be used at dinners (both private and business), wedding receptions, private parties, as an ice-breaker at cocktail parties or in hospitality suites at trade shows, seminars and business meetings, in wine bars, restaurants, hotels and public houses. In fact, at any gathering of people, either formal or informal. It is suitable for any group of virtually any size. It requires no special staging, lighting or venue. It is perfect as a creator of atmosphere and an ideal adjunct to music, dancing or eating. Close-up magic is a different and modern way to bring your function to life.
