Magician Witham

Magician Witham Essex (CM8): Whenever you are hunting for that little extra something for your party or event in the Witham area, and you would like a magical evening that everyone will remember; you ought to book a magician.

In recent years, magicians have become one of the most popular choices for the entertainment at wedding receptions, corporate events, birthdays and dinner parties in Witham. There's been a huge shift from them being viewed as kids entertainers, and now are excellent choices for adult audiences.

It is a special experience to watch a talented magician perform up close, and regardless how hard you try, not be able to work out the secrets to the magic.

From performing impromptu magic whilst mingling with guests, to a conventional stage show; a good magician will have everyone at your event looking on captivated. But what style of magician do you want?

CHOOSING A PROFESSIONAL MAGICIAN IN WITHAM

Before you make contact with an entertainment company or magician you should for starters take a look at your event guest list. Is it a wedding, corporate event, kid's party or other occasion that you need a magician for? Knowing the expectations of your guests will allow you to choose the right magician.

It can be easy, if you don't do your homework in knowing precisely what you need, to hire the wrong style of magician for your event. To just book in a magician without undertaking this groundwork could be a huge mistake. If your event is a formal corporate occasion or a combination of adults and children, you'll not want to book the sort of risqué magician who may work well at a hen party of stag party. On the other hand, a kid's magician at a wedding reception could be embarrassing for both the magician, and the happy couple.

STYLES OF MAGIC

Informal functions allow close up magic to be demonstrated to small groups of guests, and sleight of hand magicians and pickpockets performing various kinds of street magic usually go down well. Corporate and formal events will need a timed show performed to the whole audience, and in this instance look for corporate, stage or cabaret magicians.

Mind readers and mentalists are also very entertaining and will bewilder everybody, not only the selected targets. Mind reading is a timeless classic, however a contemporary twist sees the audience reading the magician's mind and turns it into something new entirely.

EXPERIENCE & PERSONALITY

Confidence is everything when it comes to magic. A seasoned Witham magician should be able to modify their act to suit different personalities, in a seamless and professional fashion. If things goes wrong during a magic trick, as sometimes occurs, an experienced magician will turn it around and turn it into a part of the show, while somebody just starting up in the profession may be flustered by the failure. Having the confidence and experience to accomplish this cannot be learnt overnight.

With the benefit of experience also comes the knowledge required to work the audience. What you do not want at your party or event in Witham is a performer who causes insult or embarrassment, with comments that do not suit your guests. You want a magician who can talk to anybody at your function on their level, or as close as possible. A magician should put your guests at ease and engage with them as he or she performs.

While the processes of some magic tricks can be guessed, a good magician should never disclose the real secrets behind their magic. They can't make use of a script, unless it is a set cabaret act, and even then it needs to be free flowing and readily adaptable should the necessity arise. A magician should never just turn up to your event in Witham, knock out a few basic tricks and vanish, they must interact, perform and make sure they give your audience an "OMG" moment to remember.

Whether they are individuals, or part of an entertainment agency, you'll want the best you can get for your budget. If you've got family or friends who have hired a local magician previously it is a great idea to ask their advice and recommendations.

Style - Do they interact with small groups and individual guests in a friendly and informal way, or are they a cabaret style magician to entertain a crowd.

Experience - Have they entertained at many events/functions, and for how long have they been a magician.
