I’m running the Hackney Half Marathon to raise money for the amazing Breathe Arts Health Research.

Breathe is a small charity that delivers innovative, award winning programmes that improve the physical and mental health of NHS staff, patients and communities.

I joined an incredibly talented cast at the Festival of Wonder in Stroud. The intention of the Festival was “to inspire a sense of wonder and hope for the more beautiful world that our hearts know is possible and a refuge from the challenges of our current world.”

When I was a member of The Young Magicians Club (The Magic Circle’s youth initiative for 10 to 18 year olds) I remember the highlight of the year being Junior Day (J-Day), the club’s own one-day convention held at The Magic Circle HQ. A packed day featuring interviews, lectures, performances from some of magic’s biggest stars, and the best part, the competitions.

Breathe Magic delivered its first in-person magic camp in over two years last month and it was an honour to be part of the journey of 16 incredible young magicians! The programme was created to help young people with hemiplegia (a weakness or paralysis affecting one side of the body as a result of brain injury or stroke) through the art of magic. After two weeks of intensive therapy, the young magicians perform a show for their families and the results are real magic!

I was so proud to represent the UK and The Magic Circle at The World Championship of Magic last week. I’ve been overwhelmed by all the messages of support - thank you everyone for all the love 🥰

I’ve had the best week at Rodney James Piper’s House of Illusion. Such an amazing team - thanks everyone for making me feel so welcome. I have one more performance in London before heading to Canada for the World Championship of Magic.

I’m very excited (and slightly terrified) to be representing the UK at the World Championship of Magic next month in Quebec! ✨

A big joy of my job is the mix of events I get to perform at and the variety of people I meet at them. I often get special requests and I love nothing more than tailoring a performance or even creating something brand new to help make a truly memorable moment.

Derek Delgaudio’s In & Of Itself is one of the most incredible shows I’ve ever seen. I was lucky to see it live in New York and it filled me with inspiration. Calling it a magic show doesn’t do it justice and I love the mystery that surrounds it, so no spoilers here! It sadly closed after a record-breaking run and multiple extensions. The good news is it was filmed and now streaming for you to enjoy!

I’ve loved getting back to the theatre to see the new shows. Here are my top picks!

It was a joy to be at the inaugural London Magic Convention. Organised by Andy & Preston Nyman, this was the first gathering of magicians in over 18 months and it was exactly what we needed. I had a lovely surprise myself, being named the ‘London Close-Up Magic Champion’.

I feel so lucky to have had the most incredible summer with Wonderville and be part of this amazing team. Below are some of my favourite memories.

Thank you everyone that made it possible. It was so much more than a run of shows; this was a summer I will never forget ❤️

We are open! After delays, covid-scares, injuries and more setbacks than I’ve ever seen, it’s been such a thrill to finally share Wonderville with audiences!

To be performing in London’s West End really is a dream come true, let alone at the beautiful Palace Theatre! I feel so lucky getting to share the stage with these incredible performers, while also having the most talented team behind the scenes, on and offstage.

After a couple of false starts, it was incredible to be back in a theatre, performing for a live audience for the first time in over a year! ‘Hey Presto-n’ was in fact the first live magic show in a UK theatre since lockdown. It was nerve-wracking being back on stage after so many months off, but once we heard the buzz from the audience, it was just like old times :)

I'm over the moon to be performing 65 shows in the West End this summer! I can’t wait to share the stage with an amazing cast of magicians and variety artists.

The show runs from 16 July to 30 August at the beautiful Palace Theatre, London. Hope you can join us 🤗✨🕊

Happy World Theatre Day!

To celebrate, I’ve just uploaded a performance that’s very special to me. Filmed at The Magic Circle, this is the act that won the Terry Herbert Award for family entertainment, back in November 2019.

Little did I know that it would be one of my last times on stage for over a year!

Zoom party entertainment didn’t exist this time last year! Now there’s an amazing range of options and I’ve really enjoyed performing my online magic show all over the world!

From Zoom birthday parties and fundraisers to work parties and virtual conferences for hundreds of guests, every online magic show really is different and I love the moment when everyone appears in the Zoom room for the first time and excited for the magic show to begin.

I started learning magic tricks when I was just 7 years old and looking back, magic has taught me so much. Here’s why I think kids should learn magic tricks:

2020 was full of challenges and surprises, but I feel lucky for these memories in between the madness.

I'm really excited to be getting back on stage!

Saturday 19th & Sunday 20th December at The Union Theatre, London. I can’t wait to join Simon Lipkin, Harry De Cruz & Spooky Nyman for some festive fun :)

I’ve opened a magic shop!

Treat yourself and learn something new, or get your Christmas shopping done nice and early!

To celebrate the grand opening, here are a couple of discount codes (you can live the dream and use both):

I’ve got some shows! They’re very different, with audiences socially-distanced, face masks, temperature checks and plenty of hand sanitiser… However it’s still a live magic show; something I’ve missed so much!

I recently did some filming and I’m excited to be on your screens very soon. Instead of going to a studio, the studio came to me! I made the most of having the green screen and welcome you to photoshop me!

As theatres are closed and performing magic in person seems to be some way away, I’ve developed a new online magic show. I’ve really enjoyed creating interactive illusions and new magic that don’t just involve everyone watching, but where the magic even happens in your hands!

The doves have been busy during lockdown!! I love this time of year as I get to see baby doves hatch and grow. Here’s the newest addition to the family, Maple, growing from a chick into a cheeky 4 month old :)

I don't normally post videos of my shows as I think magic is best experienced live, but as it’s probably going to be a while until I get on a stage again, now feels like a good time to share. Here’s a taste of what I’ve posted so far:

It’s unreal to be featured in The Magic Circular (The Magic Circle’s monthly magazine) for a third time. So much has happened in 5 years! Huge thanks to Richard Young for taking the time to interview me.

I’ve just had a call from the President of The Magic Circle, Noel Britten, to let me know I’ve been promoted to a Member of The Inner Magic Circle (MIMC) with Gold Star!

Every February, magicians from all over the world take over Blackpool for one weekend, for the World’s largest magic convention. It seems to get bigger every time, with close to 5,000 magicians this year!

What a start to 2020... yesterday I won The Magic Circle Close-Up Magician of the Year and became the first person to win all three of the society’s competitions!
