Whether you want to be left in stitches or completely in awe, magicians can do it all
Berkshire
Everyone loves a good party (and boy do we have a lot to catch up on!), and so, that's where I come in, with my lively, engaging sleight of hand, entrancing performances and those OMG moments (not to mention my uncanny ability to memorise everyone’s names on the spot). Fusing comedy with magic will have your guests aching with laughter, which makes for fantastic candid photo ops if you have a photographer present. It also helps captivate crowds, creates a convivial atmosphere, saves your guests from all those awkward first impressions, gets them mingling in minutes and forming new and lasting connections in no time at all. And I love every single minute of doing so. For more information or to arrange a call-back to chat through your plans and to see how I can help, visit: www.icebreakingmagic.co.uk. If I'm available for your event and fit your needs, then I'll send over an email via Bark and directly to your email address for ease. Magical Regards Leigh Edgecombe The Professional Icebreaker
Leigh was bitten by the magic bug from a super-early age, when he witnessed his very first trick performed by his grandad… and “just like that!” he was hooked!
From that moment on, life for Leigh was all about performing for his family and bamboozling his buddies at every opportunity, magic sets for Christmas and Birthday prezzies and entering as many school and local talent shows as was humanly possible.
Up Close –
This is Leigh’s favourite way to perform his magic up close to your guests, right in front of their eyes, under their nose and in their hands. This style of magic is perfect for most occasions where Leigh can mingle through your guests and create little shows in their groups using borrowed objects such as pens, rings, string, rubber bands, coins, notes and anything else Leigh can get his hands on!
Table Top Magic –
This is very similar to up close magic but where your guests are seated around a table. The tricks Leigh performs in this style are normally much bigger than the usual up close magic so that everyone around the table can be involved. Most of the magic Leigh performs happens in your guests hands, however when a table is present Leigh may take advantage and use it for ease.
Stage/Cabaret/Parlour Magic –
Leigh has created a performance for each of these platforms that is tailored towards the audience. The length of these performances range from 25 minutes to an hour and a half, depending what your event is and what your needs are. The shorter performances are an ideal way to end off the evening having everyone involved or highlighting the lucky person celebrating their birthday by a special magic trick – just for them! They also can be great ways to make the CEO, MD or VIP appear in a magical way on stage.
I have the pleasure of bringing people together and forming lasting friendships and have been for the past 12 years :)
To think that I would be making a living from being a full-time magician is still unbelievable to me that I get to break the ice and bring people together through entertaining them with my magic.
At first it was just a hobby that grew into a career which I love to bits!!
I have kept my business going throughout the lockdowns having adapted to the virtual world performing to clients on there, however I am now craving to get back out into the in-person events as much as you are looking forward to having them.
I can't wait to be with you, breaking the ice, kicking off your events for them to be etched in the minds of your guests for years to come. I can guarantee a fantastic experience for you all to share.
"It's just possible, that you've come here seeking a magician. Let me tell you now you've come to the right place! But you've found a lot more than a guy who does tricks. Leigh is a charismatic young man who works hard at what he does. He engages people in front of their very eyes, draws them into his work and leaves them amazed. He performed at my 60th birthday gathering and from the ripples of applause and gasps of "no way" I knew they were enjoying his performance. Two days later and I'm still bumping into people who say "who was that magician, where did you find him, he was excellent" So if you came here looking for an entertainer whose also a top class close up magician to perform at your special event then look no further. You've found him. Thanks Leigh"
Testimonial: John K, Private Party - 08.01.18
Yes, since May 2020 I adapted my services to the virtual world and currently provide interactive shows, team building session for team events and can host/facilitate digital conferences. Get in touch to find out more at: www.icebreakingmagic.co.uk/virtual-events
I have created a new style of magic coined I.C.E which stands for Interactive, Contactless, Entertainment and is the perfect engaging experience to celebrate small weddings, garden gatherings or parties.
For smaller gatherings, my ICE act is best enjoyed together as a full hour of stand up magic for everyone to be involved in or as a walkabout act entertaining guests where they sit or stand.
