Imagine your guests becoming the stars of the show and impossible souvenirs that will be treasured for years to come!
Edward has many original pieces of magic to offer, from his award-winning, spectacular act performed to music (making it perfect for international audiences) to highlights from one of his full evening shows:
Genie
‘Genie’ features magic in its purest form. Exploring the themes of happiness and fulfilment by granting three wishes, this is a family show that you don't just watch; everyone becomes part of the experience... so be careful what you wish for!
Silver
In his most intimate show to date, Hilsum leaves behind the pyrotechnics and paraphernalia to reveal “absolutely beautiful illusions” (Broadway Baby) and “immaculate sleight of hand” (The Magic Circle) that “makes you believe in real magic” (Dynamo).
“A master of his art... the audience are genuinely stunned. The penultimate trick leaves the onstage volunteer so stunned that she has to apologise for her language before returning to her seat, clearly questioning reality and with a memento and accompanying story that I’m sure she’ll tell for years to come.” (Broadway Baby)
“He really is just something special” (World Magic Review)
“Simply Stunning! I have to say this is one of the top shows I have seen this year at the Fringe, Edward has a sense of wonderment within his magic himself that can only be equalled by a child experiencing Magic for the first time! A true professional I expect to see a great future for this young Magician.” (James Kennedy, Edfringe.com Audience Review)
“Highlight of our Fringe experience, I now believe in magic!!” (Donna Matthews, Edfringe.com Audience Review)
“Absolutely wonderful show - we've been talking about our different theories about how Edward managed to dupe us all (young and old!) for the last 2 hours! A definite must-see, you won't believe your eyes.... magic *is* real...” (Lyndsey, Edfringe.com Audience Review)
