Having a magician perform close-up magic at your table is an incredible experience, and one which will definitely leave you wondering the mysteries behind the tricks.

A skilled magician will have everybody enthralled as they perform improvised magic as they mingle with the guests, or put on a more professional cabaret style stage show. So, how do you decide which magician you need for your party in Ilkley?

CHOOSING A PROFESSIONAL MAGICIAN IN ILKLEY

Before you do anything else, take a good look at the list of guests who are coming to your party. Is it a corporate event, kid's party, wedding reception or other celebration that you want a magician for? Having a solid idea of what your guests are expecting should help you to ask the right questions of a potential magician.

It can be easy, if you do not do your research in understanding what you need, to hire the wrong kind of magician for your event. By doing your research and knowing just what you need, you lessen the chance of hiring an inappropriate choice of magic act. Wedding parties, for instance usually involve a wide mix of age groups, and a magician who regularly performs at events like stag or hen parties might not be the best choice. It's also obvious that a kid's magic act may not be the best thing for more mature audiences.

MAGIC STYLES

Informal gatherings allow close up magic to be performed to small groups, and pickpockets and sleight of hand magicians performing various kinds of street magic usually go down well. For those more formal functions you should consider an after dinner cabaret, stage or corporate magician.

Great fun for guests of all ages are mentalists and mind readers, who are able to keep an audience guessing long after the show has finished. Certain skillful magicians can even flip this around and get a member of the audience to read their mind - the perfect twist to a well loved magic trick.

EXPERIENCE & PERSONALITY

Experience and confidence are the ultimate weapons in a magician's toolkit. Confidence comes from experience, and a good Ilkley magician can adapt quickly to ever changing situations among your audience. If something goes awry during a trick, as occasionally happens, an experienced magician will turn it around and make it a part of the show, whereby somebody just starting out in the profession could become flustered over the mistake. This is a part of the skill an experienced and professional magician has to offer when they perform.

With the benefit of experience also comes the knowledge required to work the crowd. When a magician in Ilkley finds this difficult to accomplish, it can easily be a very embarrassing experience for everyone. A talented magician should be able to interact with every guest, irrespective of background or age. The thing that turns a good magician into a fantastic one, is the skill to put your guests at ease, especially if they have volunteered to take part in a magic trick.

There'll always be individuals who want to know how particular tricks are done; a good magician should never expose their secrets, or use tricks which are easy to understand. Also, they should not make use of tightly scripted material, since performing to a live audience can throw up surprises at every turn of the cards. A magician shouldn't just turn up to your party in Ilkley, knock out a few tricks and vanish, they must perform, interact and make sure that they give the guests a real "OMG" moment to remember.

FINDING A QUALITY ILKLEY MAGICIAN

If you look online you'll find plenty of magicians in the Ilkley area available to book. Whether they're part of a large entertainment company, or individual performers, you'll want the best in your price range. If you have friends or family who've hired a local magician in the past it is a great idea to ask them for their advice and recommendations. When given advice, don't forget to ask about the age brackets and sort of party that the magician attended so you can compare it to your own function.

Suitability - Do they regard themselves as a kid's entertainer, or are they appropriate for older, more mature audiences.

Experience - For how long have they been performing as a professional magician, and roughly how many events have they attended, or shows have they given?

Style - Are they stage magicians or do they do close-up magic tricks as they mingle amongst tables and guests.

Performance - If a stage magician, do they perform just one single performance, or can they also mingle afterwards and perform more magical experiences for your guests.

Don't always pick out the cheapest quotation, look into how each Ilkley magician would work within your event planning and pick according to suitability. All you'll need to do then is settle back and savour the experience as your magician gets the party started, and makes it an unforgettable event for all of your guests.
