I perform magic and mind reading entertainment at Christmas parties, whether they are company or private functions.
They can be rather boisterous - so you need someone who can adapt to any situation, including dealing with Christmas cracker pulling and balloon rockets! It is one occasion where close-up magic and mind reading may be more appropriate than after dinner entertainment.
Comments
“Now that we have all recovered from the bathstore Christmas party, I thought I would drop you a line to say many thanks for the contribution you made to the success of our big day. It is never easy to ensure a smooth transition from the business part of the day to the fun part – especially when the promise of a free bar awaits! But for the second time in four years you have really caught the mood of the day."

"We would just like to thank you for another absolutely splendid performance at our Christmas lunch. Everyone was absolutely enthralled and totally baffled by how on earth you do it. I think your sense of humour and general delivery of your tricks greatly adds to the enjoyment and we thank you again for a really great couple of hours. The mix of close-up at each table followed by a general show makes an ideal combination."
EC Heathcote, Managing Director, The Cabair Group Limited
"Thank you for the excellent show you gave at our Christmas party. I know everyone really enjoyed your performance and there was a lot of positive comment the next morning – you greatly enlivened what can and has sometimes in the past been something of a dreary evening. I haven’t laughed so much at my colleagues for quite a while. I admire the way you managed to get everybody to perform as you wished and with such good humour."
