Frank Brooker sadly passed away last month. He was a lovely man with an amazing story. A magician and a taxi driver, when international magicians came to work in England, Frank was their go to chauffeur! He met all the greats of the time, but the one who had the biggest impact on him was Channing Pollock, a man Frank described as "the best magic act to come to this country".
I went to Amsterdam with 10 magicians to see a magic show. What an adventure! Hans Klok is a true showman and I don't remember the last time I had so much fun watching a magician. Two hours of insanity with the biggest illusions, so much energy and wind machines (mainly to keep his hair looking like he's in a music video).
I've just had the joy of joining eight incredible young magicians on a Breathe Magic camp. The work that Breathe does is real magic!
I loved everything about this new show. Based on the cult film, Groundhog Day is an intelligent musical featuring stunning design, a fantastic cast and some incredible magic (from the genius Paul Kieve) woven into the story.
Three years ago, I spent my summer in Belarus. I worked with an amazing team which led to some fantastic opportunities, from putting together my first full show, helping some incredible charities and ending up on national TV!
