The Magic Castle is a members club in LA on Franklin Avenue (near Hollywood Boulevard). It is the most incredible venue and has the most amazing audiences. Full of the Hollywood elite and mixed in with magician members (they are easy to spot) it’s always a really fun crowd to perform for.

I was performing in the Parlour of Prestidigitation. This is my favourite room at The Magic Castle or ‘The Castle’ as it’s known. As a performer you perform several times an evening. In the Parlour of Prestidigitation, you perform 3 shows an evening, each lasting around 20 minutes. Audiences queue up to get in and often the shows are full, so the anticipation levels can be high. It’s very exciting! The hosts do an excellent job of hyping the audience (not that they usually need it), so by the time the magician comes on, there is an incredible buzz in the air.

Close Up Magician Los Angeles

As well as performing on stage, I also perform intimate close up magic for smaller groups. This is often best as a 30-45 minute show straight through. The ideal situation is that all the guests can watch the show together as a shared experience. A big part of the appeal of magic is watching your guests react to the magic, so this is the best way.

It’s also possible to perform roaming, walk around close up magic at cocktail parties etc.

Stage Magician Los Angeles

This time, I performed a new trick. I get wrapped up in cellophane by a member of the audience. A playing card is chosen and signed by a member of the audience. The cards are placed on the floor and then magically fired up in to air like a playing card firework. This looks incredible. After the cards fly in to the air, everyone sees the signed card has gone through the cling film (or plastic wrap/Saran wrap as they like to call it in USA) and appeared on my chest. It was getting fantastic reactions. I did this on Britain’s Got Talent – see the video below.

I first went to Hollywood when I was around 18. You had to be 21 to get in to The Magic Castle (alcohol laws). I remember thinking that when I’m older, I might be able to get in to watch some shows. I never dreamed I would actually be a Magic Castle magician.

The Magic Castle has several rooms to perform in. There’s a close up gallery for sleight of hand, close up magic. A larger theatre for stage performances and several other smaller interesting rooms of all shapes and sizes for different styles of magic. One of my favourite (non performing) rooms is the music room. A mysterious ghost, Irma, haunts The Magic Castle. She is invisible but plays the piano each night (for tips). Just name a song and she can play it. Absolutely amazing.

This is my 5th time performing at The Magic Castle and I always have a fantastic time. I love Los Angeles!

One thing I have observed, is that an American audience can be a very different audience to the British. The Brits are typically reserved (as you’d imagine). The American audience (especially at The Magic Castle) are not only more enthusiastic but have a habit of talking to you and talking out loud during the performance. It always takes a me a few shows the get used to it, but it always makes me laugh. Whilst I’m performing you can hear people saying things loudly like “hey, you’ve got a bag on your head” or “thimbles?? Who’d think of doing a trick with thimbles??”. They don’t hold back their thoughts. I love it.
