Magic that makes people look twice

Double Take Magic is an award-winning close-up magician based in Coventry, performing at weddings, parties and company events across the Midlands.

He has loved magic since he was five years old, and it shows. His magic happens inches from your guests, and often in their own hands. A word they only thought of turns up written on a card that has been in view all along. A chosen card rises out of the deck on the count of three. A pile of magazine pages turns into real cash.

Just as important is the way he performs. He is friendly, relaxed and quick to get people laughing, so guests who have never met are soon chatting to each other. He is just as good with children as he is with adults, which makes him a natural choice for weddings and family celebrations.

He mingles during drinks receptions, moves from table to table during meals, and works the room at birthday parties, christenings and evening dos.
