Photo of Sofeya Sofeya "Sofeya was engaging for her 15mins performance and carried the audience along. Great personality too. Feedback from guests really positive" Based in London, England 16th June 2026 Michelle O - Birthday party Photo of Athina-Maria Athina-Maria "Absolutely fantastic performance. From start to finish you brought incredible energy, professionalism, and presence. You created a great atmosphere and engaged everyone effortlessly, making the whole experience memorable and enjoyable. The timing, movement, and overall performance were excellent, and it really elevated the event. Thank you for your hard work and for making the night so special — would highly recommend." Based in Leeds, England 6th April 2026 Max Taylor - Birthday party Photo of Matt Barber - Close-Up Magician Matt Barber - Close-Up Magician "We booked Matt to perform at our wedding at Hedingham Castle, and he was truly amazing. From our very first meeting, he completely blew us away with his warmth, professionalism, and talent. On the day, he engaged with our guests so beautifully, even where there were language barriers, and everyone loved him. He brought such joy, energy, and magic to our wedding, and we honestly couldn’t have imagined a more perfect evening." Based in Maidstone, England 11th February 2026 Alexandra Margarit - Wedding Photo of Chasing The Illusion Chasing The Illusion "We recently had the pleasure of experiencing Chase's magic at our Christmas party, and he was absolutely outstanding. His performance was on a completely different level — not just traditional magic, but truly mind-blowing mentalism and touch magic that left us speechless. His ability to read thoughts, predict choices, and reveal personal details with impossible accuracy had the entire room captivated. The mentalism routines were eerie in the best possible way — the kind that makes you look around to check whether someone must be in on it (they weren’t!). But the moment that everyone is still talking about is his touch magic. Feeling a tap on your shoulder or hand without him being anywhere near you is something you can’t fully explain until you experience it. It was surreal, unforgettable, and created that perfect mix of excitement and disbelief. On top of his incredible talent, he was warm, engaging, and effortlessly funny — the type of entertainer who instantly puts people at ease and gets everyone involved without ever making anyone uncomfortable. If you’re looking for entertainment that is unique, astonishing, and memorable long after the event is over, I cannot recommend him highly enough. Truly exceptional." Based in London, England 8th December 2025 Kras - Christmas party Photo of Blooming Circus Blooming Circus "If you are looking for a children’s entertainer in Sheffield look no further! Jay from Blooming Circus is an amazing magician and his circus workshops went down a treat with all the kids. I can’t recommend these guys highly enough" Based in Sheffield, England 1st December 2025 Tim Marston - Family Party Photo of Lookalikes magic Lookalikes magic "we have just returned from a five day cruise which was 1st class especially the team of entertainers. The Laurel and Hardy Tribute Act were absolutely wonderful mixing with passengers, providing non stop close up magic all day every day .and all in character. Some of the reactions to their skills produced the best photographs, especially from the dance team leader who could not believe what she saw happen with her very eyes. A magical moment to treasure . I believe there are one or two pictures on Rob Grahams Facebook file" Based in Southport, England David Whittam - cruise entertainment
