Magician Hedge End Hampshire (SO30): If you are planning a wonderful party or event in the Hedge End area, and you would like to make it memorable, you should hire a magician.
Magicians have become the subject of a surge in popularity in recent years, and are ideal entertainment for corporate events, weddings, birthdays and dinner parties in Hedge End. They're still very popular for children's parties, but thanks to TV programs such as, Britain's Got Talent, magicians are often on the short list for more mature audiences.
It certainly is an amazing experience to watch a talented magician work up close, and no matter how frantically you try, not be able to work out the secrets of those magic tricks.
You may want your magician to put on a cabaret style show, or perhaps you would rather have more informal magic as they mingle up close with your guests; in either case, they are going to have fun and be captivated. However, what type of magician do you need?
CHOOSING THE BEST PROFESSIONAL MAGICIAN IN HEDGE END
Before you do anything else, take a close look at the list of people attending your party. Is it a wedding, corporate event, children's party or other occasion that you want a magician for? Knowing yours, and your guests, expectations from the event should allow you to choose the most suitable magician.
It can be easy, if you fail to do your groundwork in understanding what you need, to hire the wrong magician for your type of event. To simply book a magician without doing this research could be asking for trouble. An adult entertainer might have magic tricks that are more suitable to a hen or stag party than to a corporate event, or a party where young children are present. It is also clear that a kid's magic act may not be appropriate for more mature audiences.
MAGICAL STYLES
Close-up magic is always an extremely popular choice for parties and informal occasions, but you can also book pick-pockets, sleight of hand experts and street magicians. Corporate and formal events may need a timed show presented to the entire audience, and in cases like this consider stage, cabaret or corporate magicians.
Mind readers and mentalists are also great fun and will bewilder all the guests, not simply the chosen targets. Certain masters of magic can even switch this trick round and get the audience to read their mind - the supreme twist to a classic magic trick.
EXPERIENCE AND PERSONALITY
Experience and confidence are the key weapons in a magician's toolkit. Hedge End magicians with years of experience in their lockers will be far more likely to adapt and change with an audience's different personalities than a magician who is just getting started in the business. If something goes awry during a trick, as sometimes occurs, a seasoned magician will turn it to his advantage and turn it into part of the show, while someone just setting out in the profession may be flustered by the mistake. That's where the years of experience of performing to audiences comes in handy.
A talented magician will also know how to work the audience to good advantage. When a magician in Hedge End finds this difficult to achieve, it can soon turn into an uncomfortable experience for everybody. What you actually want is a magician who can have a discussion with anyone at your function on their own level, or as close as possible. They must have the ability to engage with all of your guests and put them at ease throughout the show.
Whilst the ins and outs of some magic tricks can be guessed at, a good magician shouldn't ever disclose the mysteries behind their magic. A cabaret magician in Hedge End, unlike close-up and table magicians, can use a scripted performance, although even so they need to be able to be adaptable and make it flow freely to react to any change in the atmosphere. A genuine magician will be a real performer at your occasion in Hedge End, who provides guests with an unforgettable OMG moment, not someone who just strolls around doing the odd magic trick before leaving with his wages.
