Close Up At The Churchill

An intimate evening of close-up magic, trickery and sleight of hand.

Close-up magic is one of the most popular and impressive forms of the art and this event showcases some of the best exponents direct from sell out performances at The Magic Circle. Performers vary with each show and audiences get to experience the magic in an informal setting, often taking part themselves.

The format is intimate with three tables and a limited audience at each. Magicians of contrasting styles perform a 25 minute set for each group in turn, typically with cards, coins and borrowed objects. Volunteers and audiences will be as close to the magic as possible. There is a 30 minute interval to help the audience catch their breath and talk to the magicians before the show resumes.
