Hey! I'm Close-Up Chris
I've been professionally entertaining with magic for 28 years (I performed my first magic show aged 8) and have since perfected the art of making someone laugh whilst surreptitiously stealing their thoughts, their wallet, and their watch - which, let me tell you, is no mean feat.
Think of me as the Swiss Army knife of magicians - sleight of hand, mind reading, pickpocketing, comedy. Simmer nicely for two hours and you'll get OMGs and WTFs like they're going out of fashion. Whether you're booking a magician for a wedding, a corporate event, or a party - not a cowboy in sight.
Need to spread the magic?
Table magicians, mind readers, pickpockets, comedy acts - I've assembled a handpicked team of professionals who deliver the same standard I do. Ideal for large corporate events, exhibitions, and conferences where one magician isn't enough.
