Adam just performed for a birthday party of ours and he was so brilliant. Try as we might (we followed him round the room) we could not see how he does it. We've concluded that he is actually magic. More...

Adam was absolutely brilliant at our small party. He performed some fantastic magic that left the room stumped and talking about it since. His showmanship and charisma communicating with the whole party was excellent and communication leading up to the event kept me confident and comfortable. I would whole heartedly recommend booking him for a small event, and would confidently assert he would be just as fabulous at a larger event. More...

Adam is remarkable. An 18th birthday with lots of noise and maybe some short attention span cynical teenagers and yet by the end they were all talking amongst themselves about the existence of real magic. Not only is Adam supremely talented he manifests grace under fire and elegance whatever the audience. A class act. More...

We had the pleasure of hiring an up-close magician (Adam Keisner) for a 4-day opening event at work, and he was nothing short of amazing. From the moment he arrived, he had everyone completely captivated. His magic was mind-blowing—slick, professional, and full of surprises. He mingled effortlessly with our guests & staff, creating moments of wonder and laughter wherever he went. His style was engaging and personable, and he made sure everyone had a chance to experience the magic up close. We received so much positive feedback from staff and visitors alike. He truly elevated the atmosphere and added a touch of magic to the entire week. We wouldn't hesitate to book him again for future events! More...

I work for a publishing company, and last night we had a 10 year anniversary party for about 100 people. We thought it would be fun to hire a magician and I'm so glad we did. Adam was BRILLIANT! The absolute star of the night. He was so good with the guests, wowing them with awe inspiring close up magic. His tricks are just incredible, and he really did add something special to the evening. I had so many conversations with guests that started 'how does he do that! It's just not possible!' I would totally recommend him, and can't wait to find another excuse to hire him!

We were thrilled to welcome magician Adam Keisner to The Fishmongers’ Company Families’ Day on June 14th, 2025, and he was a fantastic new addition to the festivities. Adam’s performance was polished, professional, and full of surprises—his signature trick, “I steal watches,” was absolutely mind-blowing and had everyone buzzing with disbelief and laughter. Even the boss couldn’t help but comment on what a top act Adam was, which says it all. Adam interacted effortlessly with guests of all ages and seemed to glide through the party, leaving a trail of smiles and “what just happened?!” expressions in his wake. His ability to engage, astonish, and entertain was absolutely top tier, and we’re already hoping to see more of his magical flair at future events. More...

**Brilliant magician for our street party!** Found Adam online by chance for our community street party (1,400 people throughout the day). Professional from the start and easy to book. On the day he was fantastic - arrived on time, worked the whole event doing walk-around magic. Everyone was genuinely impressed and I watched people asking for his contact details! Fair pricing, excellent attitude, and we will be booking him for next year's summer party. Highly recommend Adam if you need a reliable magician who magics up what he promises! More...

We booked Adam to perform during canapes at our wedding. I wish I had a picture of the guests' faces whilst he was performing the magic tricks, it would capture perfectly how amazing they were. It added a nice unique aspect to the event and kept everyone entertained. Adam turned up on time and was ready to spring into action the second the ceremony ended which is exactly what we pre-planned. I will look for the first opportunity to book him again. More...

How long have you been interested in magic?
25 Years and counting, I use to watch Paul Daniels as child and got hooked. I had no idea how any of this was possible so curiosity got the better of me.
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
I perform Close-Up Magic whether guests are seated or standing I entertain accordingly. I’d mix and mingle amongst small groups 2,3-4+ guests at a time. If people are sat I engage in Table Magic.
I've experience performing for kids too, please see my profile photos.
I specialise in Close-Up, sleight of hand Magic with cards, coins, Rubik's cubes and borrowed objects. Finger rings, bank notes, pens, mobile phones, watches, rubber bands, napkins, bottles, glasses and cutlery. No rabbits. No doves.
Basically common familiar objects, which can always be examined prior, during and after the show.
What do you love most about your job?
The fact that actually love my job and I always meet different people in different locations all over the world.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I've always wanted to work for myself and performing magic is basically show-business, I'm constantly working on my show, adding new tricks etc and I love the business side of it too. I met a Magician at a wedding when I was 15 and I got chatting to him, he was a really nice guy and I wish I could remember his name or what he looked like but he got me thinking if he made a living from performing then it must be a viable thing.
Why should our clients choose you?
As a full time pro with over sixteen years experience as an entertainer, performing magic is my full time job. Sixty percent of my work comes from repeat bookings. I’ve won awards for performing magic from The Magic Circle and the annual International Magic Convention. I’m always on the hunt for new magic effects to advance my repertoire and I will fool you but I’ll be nice about it at the same time, that’s guaranteed. Above all it’s my living and what I love doing.
