Close up magic is very versatile and can be performed at any time during an event, the most popular being;
- Walk Around Magic – Russ can mingle between your guests in a bar area for example and perform close up magic surrounded for small groups of people. This is ideal for a drinks reception situation or even during the photos session at a wedding.
- Table Hopping – Russ can perform table magic between courses providing unique entertainment for your guests. At many events guests often find themselves grouped together at tables with people they have never met. Table magic between courses gives them the perfect conversation starter & never fails to make a big impact.
