Hey! I'm Close-Up Chris
I've been working Stratford-upon-Avon venues since the late nineties - the Welcombe Hotel, Wootton Park, Stratford Manor, Billesley Manor, plus the village halls and private gardens out in Tiddington, Welford-on-Avon and Hampton Lucy. I know the venue coordinators, the back doors, and which ballrooms need cordless mics. By the time your guests arrive, I've already worked out where to set up for maximum impact.
I combine four disciplines into one set - sleight of hand, mind reading, pickpocketing and comedy. Most magicians in Stratford-upon-Avon do one. I do all four, and I've had 28 years to get good at it. Whether it's a wedding reception in Bidford-on-Avon, a corporate evening in Henley-in-Arden, or a milestone birthday in Alcester, I'll read the room, work the crowd, and make you look like the host who thought of everything.
