Close-Up Chris isn’t your run-of-the-mill magician. Oh no, he’s far more than that. He’s a maestro of misdirection, a sorcerer of sleight-of-hand, a… well, you get the idea. Chris’ magic is so cutting edge, it might as well be a samurai sword.

His unique brand of close-up magic is like nothing else you’ll find in Leicester. It’s like comparing apples to oranges, or wizards to muggles. There’s just no competition.

WHAT TYPE OF EVENTS DO YOU DO?

I’m a close-up magician who does the lot – no event too small, no event too big. My magic tricks jazz up the stuffiest of corporate events and bring a touch of razzle-dazzle at private parties, and as a wedding magician, I’m the perfect ice-breaker. You see close-up magic is as versatile as a Swiss army knife minus any of the health and safety nightmares! So, if you’re after a Leicester Magician who knows his way around a bunch of dullards, you’re in safe hands!

WHAT MAKES CLOSE-UP CHRIS UNIQUE?

Ah, the secret ingredient to Close-Up Chris’s magic – comedy! You see, Chris’s tricks aren’t just about wowing you with sleight of hand or making your jaw drop with an unexpected twist. No, they’re about making you laugh till your sides ache, turning a simple magic trick into an unforgettable experience.

Comedy is the backbone of Chris’s tricks, the secret sauce that makes them stand out from the crowd. It adds an extra layer of entertainment, transforming each performance into a rollercoaster ride of laughter and amazement. Whether he’s poking fun at himself, delivering a punchline with perfect timing, or using irony and wordplay to keep you on your toes, Chris’s comedic flair is always front and centre.

This blend of humour and magic is what sets Chris apart from other magicians. It’s not just about fooling you; it’s about taking you on a fun-filled journey where every trick is a surprise and every laugh is genuine. So, if you’re looking for a magician who can make you laugh as hard as he can make you gasp in wonder, then look no further. Close-Up Chris is the magician for you.

HAVE YOU WON ANY AWARDS?

Ah, the age-old question: “Have you won any awards for your magic?” Well, dear reader, I hate to burst your bubble, but the answer is a resounding no. But before you gasp in shock, let me explain.

You see, at the end of the day, my guests don’t give two hoots about awards. Unlike other magicians, they’re not interested in shiny trophies or fancy certificates. What they care about is having a good time, being entertained, and experiencing something they’ve never seen before.

And that’s where I come in. My magic isn’t about impressing some stuffy panel of judges. It’s about making you laugh, making you gasp, and turning your event into an unforgettable experience. It’s about the smiles on your faces, the laughter in the room, and the memories we create together.

So, no, I haven’t won any awards. But if there was a trophy for putting smiles on faces and creating magical memories, I reckon I’d have a cabinet full of them!

GOT ANY REVIEWS?

Reviews? Oh, have I got reviews!  Facebook reviews, Google Reviews. I’ve got so many reviews; they would sink a ship if they were written on paper. But don’t take my word for it – take a gander at the floating tab on the right of the page. You’ll find boatloads of testimonials from satisfied customers who’ve had their minds blown by my unique blend of magic and comedy.

But wait, there’s more! I’m not just blowing smoke here. I’ve got the rankings to back it up. Currently, I’m sitting pretty at number 1 of all UK magicians on the independent review site FreeIndex. That’s right, numero uno, top of the pops, king of the hill!

So, if you’re looking to hire a Leicester magician who comes highly recommended, you’ve come to the right place. But don’t just take my word for it – check out the reviews and see for yourself!

DO YOU HAVE PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE?

Fear not – any (good) professional magician worth his salt will carry Public Liability for a few million. That means our card tricks can dabble on the dark side whilst you rest easy. Having been a close-up magician for over 25 years (I moisturise), I’ve yet to call upon it to make a claim! So should my spectacle ring trick go pear-shaped during the wedding breakfast or Nanna has a mini-stroke over my “mind-reading”, fear not. Close-up magic has never been so safe!

I'M SOLD - HOW DO WE BOOK?

Fantastic! You’re ready to add a sprinkle of magic and a dash of comedy to your event. Booking me is as easy as one, two, three.

  1. Tell me about your event: Hey, I’m not a blooming mind-reader, I need to know the details of your event. Give me the lowdown so I can tailor my performance to fit your needs perfectly.
  2. Pay: Once we’ve got the details ironed out, it’s time to make it official. With a quick payment, you’ll secure your date in my diary. Don’t worry, my payment process is as secure as a locked box in a magic trick – no surprises here!
  3. Enjoy: Now for the best part – sit back, relax, and prepare to be amazed! I’ll bring the magic and the laughs, all you need to do is enjoy the show.

So, are you ready to take the plunge? Let’s get this magical journey started!
