Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

Strolling performances require no technical setup. I move naturally throughout the room, engaging guests in conversation, mentalism, magic, and theatrical pickpocketing. For stage performances, technical needs are minimal, and I'll walk through the details with you in advance.


What information do you require about a venue?

Only the location, how early Ken can arrive, and where he can settle in. Ken's a solo performer offering stage or strolling performances, or a combination of both. Ken is adaptable to any venue or setting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

I’ve had some remarkable opportunities, from performing for Bruce Springsteen and Colin Powell to appearing on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Performing at Rao’s in New York is another experience that stands out. For me, what makes a great gig is the connection with the guests. There’s something special about seeing people who thought they’d seen everything suddenly look at each other and say, “How did that just happen?”


What's your favourite type of event?

I especially enjoy corporate events and intimate private gatherings where I can get to know the guests and make them part of the performance. A simple conversation can turn into something no one can explain. Watching people relax, laugh, and connect over that shared experience is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started exploring magic at eight years old. At 22, I spent three years traveling through Europe and South America, studying with mentalists and illusionists and learning about psychology and perception. Those experiences helped shape the way I perform today. I now have more than 30 years of experience and perform at over 250 events each year, from corporate gatherings and private celebrations to exclusive events around the world. My work combines mentalism, magic, and theatrical pickpocketing in performances tailored to each audience.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Timing is planned around your event. Strolling performances need no technical setup, while stage performances have a few basic requirements that we'll discuss beforehand. We'll agree on my arrival time, performance length, and any breaks in advance. I can provide strolling entertainment, a stage show, or a mix of both to suit your schedule.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, and can also do indooPlease share the details of your outdoor venue when you enquire. I'll review the setting, weather arrangements, and performance area with you to confirm whether it's suitable and which type of performance would work best.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Absolutely. I work with you to create the right mix of mentalism, magic, and theatrical pickpocketing for your guests. We can include strolling performances, a stage show, or both. We'll discuss the occasion, your audience, and the flow of the event so the entertainment fits naturally. You're welcome to share special requests in advance, and I'll explain what's possible.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Clients often describe my performances as mind-bending, engaging, and full of laughter. They also mention how personable I am and how naturally I fit into their events. Whether I'm performing for a small group or a full room, guests feel involved and leave with something they can't quite explain.
