Mike Driver is a close-up magician,working in Teesside, the  North East and the UK. He specialises in famous effects by leading, and award-winning, magicians from across the World.Good magic is a powerful form of entertainment . It provides a lot of fun and amazement . It is also a very strong stimulus to get people, who may not have met for a long while, relaxing and talking .This is why good close up magic is increasingly popular at a wide variety of events from wedding receptions and parties to corporate functions and trade fairs.

Good close-up magic provides excellent entertainment at corporate functions such as dinners, banquets, celebrations and awards ceremonies etc. It provides a very strong stimulus that creates a fun and relaxed atmosphere where the guests have a common focal point - for amazement and discussion. Magic, to use the buzz words, is a very good 'ice-breaker'. This is particularly useful where there are guests who do not know each other so well.

Good close-up can also be adapted for Trade Fairs - to help attract potential clients to the stand AND to convey key company messages about their products and/or services in a FUN way. For example:

  • The storyline of certain effects can be adapted and personalised to suit the company or business - or a key marketing characteristic.
  •  The company product can be used in a very different way. E.g if a company produced canned foods, such as beans, a chosen card - signed by the audience member - vanishes and is found inside the can of beans!
  • Blank business cards can be printed magically and distributed.

These are just a few examples. There are many, many strong routines which can be adapted to the Trade Show situation.
