I think it's fair to say that no magician has faced more criticism over recent years than Dynamo! Many have dismissed Dynamo's magic as camera tricks... It seems to come with the territory of being on TV.
Over the last year, listening to the Magicians' Podcast has been a highlight of my week. A project run by the brilliant Richard Young, he's been busy interviewing some of the magic world's most interesting characters! Now coming to the end of it's second series, there's an incredible archive to listen to.
I went to Edinburgh again! Last year was my first experience at the Fringe, but this was my first time on stage there. 23 performances later... I think I have a show!
The equivalent of the 'magic olympics', FISM is a huge event which takes place every three years. Named after the organising society (The Fédération Internationale des Sociétés Magiques - International Federation of Magic Societies), having been to FISM Blackpool in 2012, I knew the drill - lots and lots of magic! This time it was held in Rimini, Italy, so there was a little more sunshine than before!
I have a new show! Debuting at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this August, I'm extremely excited to take my magic in a new direction.
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.
