The Stage & Cabaret Magician is the focus and driving force behind this New Collection…My own career in Magic began with winning ‘The Young Magician’ of The Year’ in 1967 and to this day I am still a Stage Magician at heart…
It is from this particular aspect of Magic where most of my inspiration and creative energy comes from… even the ‘Close Up’ Effects & Routines that I have developed in recent years have their roots within the disciplines of Stage Performance and Showmanship…for example …”The Baffle Box” , although finds its niche in ‘The Close Up’ & ‘Parlour Magic’ Venue, it was the spectacular performance of Richiardi Jnr and his use of this classic magic principle in his’De Kolta Chair Illusion’ that inspired me to create a smaller version more suited to an intimate presentation…The new ‘Cabaret’ version is a perfect example of this and remains my personal tribute to one of the greatest Stage Magicians that ever lived! The Stage Magician calls on all the Theatre Arts to perfect his Performance, Lighting, Music, Special Effects, added to which comes The Magician himself and how he looks and moves across the Stage…Effects & Illusions with a finish designed to catch every available source of Light creating an atmosphere of enchantment, enhancing the audiences experience of ‘Live Theatre & Entertainment’…and giving them a Magical Moment that will stay with them forever…Even the smallest of tricks can play ‘BIG’ when these disciplines are applied in the preparation & rehearsal stages. The defining element of this ‘Collection’ will be Polished Aluminium which will add a Contemporary Look & Feel to many of the effects featured in this new line…over the coming months we will bring something for every performance discipline…it is my hope that you will find something in this Collection for your Magic…
