Frequently Asked Questions

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

I have performed at the Mercedes Benz Arena in Shanghai (capacity 10,000) in a show I wrote and co-produced called "Ocean of Dreams" in 2018. My favourite venue to perform magic is the Magic Castle in Hollywood California.


What's your favourite type of event?

We love performing at all sorts of events but small theatre magic shows at the magic castle are my favourite! Private parties of 52 people or less and small corporate events are also fun when I can get a chance to interact with everyone in the audience.


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

I started gigging since high-school, playing the piano in the lounge at the granite club and doing close-up magic in between sets.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Victor Borge and Tim Minchin are big influences of mine from the world of music and comedy. I also draw a lot of inspiration from Penn & Teller, Mack King, and Derren Brown who are my heros in Magic.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Performer can arrive 30 min - 1 hour prior to show time for set up as needed.

Solo Performances range from 30 min to up to 1 hour in length.
MC/Hosting services may be longer pending event run time.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I have done out door festivals, but would much prefer to perform indoors at a venue where the audience can relax into their seats and be fully immersed in the dream that I create.


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

I am happy to work with clients, in fact, one of my acts involves 3 volunteers from the audience to come to the piano, each choosing a random note on the keyboard from which I compose an original piece.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

"I was surprised to see a magician named Dr. K. Combining spontaneous musical composition on the piano, while executing a number of Illusions, He managed to create nothing short of real magic. he successfully combined music, a romantic art form with Illusion, considered to be a variety art.
Many before him have tried and failed to fuse these two disciplines.
What I saw him do that evening was uplifting, inspirational and fun. " - Franz Harary (Illusionist)


How do you customize your act to an event?

One of my favourite things to do is to create! Whether it's a new magic presentation or a new piece of music, I am always eager to make something that is unique for my clients to create a special memory together. Whether it's a new product launch where you'd like me to make something appear, or write a special jingle or song for your special someone, or even if you just wanted to make your wife disappear on your anniversary party, given enough time and budget, there's always a way to make anything happen!
