Dan rocked up at a Social Event I was at the other evening, luckily for us he had his playing cards in his back pocket.
This kid can keep up with the best of them, stunned with how silky smooth his moves were, I was blown away, such a nice reserved lad sat at the table eating but with a pack of cards in his hand this guy is Dynamite !!
I’m usually skeptical of this kind of stuff but this up and coming magician is the real deal, shame he couldn’t turn my drink of rum & coke into 4 glasses of the stuff, after all he is a magician and not jesus!!

How long have you been interested in magic?
I was probably 6 years old when I got my first magic set at Christmas
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
I do not take my magic too seriously when performing. Yes I have to (and will) amaze people with the tricks and material. However the main goal is not to fool anyone (that happens by itself. It is a bonus). It is to help them enjoy their day just a little more than they would if they had not seen me. I do this through having a fun time with them, making jokes, and showing them fantastic magic.
What do you love most about your job?
The joy on people's faces when they see something that makes them feel like a kid again for a short second of wonder and amazement. I feel extremely proud that I have the ability to give that feeling to people.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I started making money from my childhood hobby at 14 years old. How could anyone not love that?! From there I just never grew out of it and eventually had to make my hobby into a professional business.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am young, fresh, and ultimately extremely passionate about my art form. This definitely translates to the guests watching and makes it all the more exciting.
