Just over a year ago, I started working with James Freedman on his new show 'Man of Steal'. After a debut run at the Edinburgh Festival last year, it was amazing to see that people liked it as much as we did! Since then, the show's had the most incredible journey and I'm extremely proud of what it's achieved.
What an adventure - 8 shows, 9 days, 10 cast and crew and one tour bus! With shows all over the UK, including travelling to Inverness and back, being on the road with Champions of Magic was the most amazing experience, made even better by being able to share it with the best group of people.
My nan got a new dog. What's my reaction? I did some magic with him!! At just 10 weeks old, he's the cutest little thing, and you can see the result below. Believe it or not, this took over 100 takes to get! Keep scrolling down for the outtakes... Introducing Kevin!
Last week, Dynamo performed one of the most beautiful pieces of magic I've ever seen. Part of the campaign to launch the new Fiat 500X car, this illusion really is history in the making. Dynamo formed a 3D blueprint of the car, got inside and spun it around, before turning it into the real thing! It was an absolute honour to be there to witness this moment... it looked even better live!
The Session this year featured the most incredible collection of the biggest names in magic!
Where else can you find Derren Brown, David Blaine, Dynamo, Troy and Ben Hanlin all in the same room alongside some of the greats well known to magicians, including Juan Tamariz, Luke Jermay, Asi Wind and Michael Weber!
The International Magic Convention is one of the big events I look forward to every year. A week full of magic, this year's had even more surprises than usual! The David Berglas International Magic Award has become one of the most highly anticipated awards in magic and always a special part of the convention. Recent years have seen the award go to Derren Brown, Jeff McBride and Lu Chen.
