Craig Stephenson is a highly experienced York based magician, working across Yorkshire and the North East. He specialises in magic for grown-ups and his style of magic is natural, close-up, in bars and restaurants, performing card and mind control illusions to make for a truly memorable night out or special occasion.

Craig improvises. There's no set repertoire of tricks, no separate "show" and "audience". No barriers. Everyone can get close-up, and even challenge Craig with their personal cards, coins or everyday objects and feel part of the act. They'll be even more dazzled and convinced by being so directly involved. Craig doesn't rely on gimmicks or stooges, but does create a truly interactive, fun and non-cheesy experience that will baffle and amuse his audience.

Craig is very well versed in psychological techniques and mind control illusions used by modern performers such as Derren Brown, Luke Jermey, Andy Nyman and other leading mentalists and this brings an extra dimension to his magical performance. Using highly impressive mind reading and influencing skills, Craig can stun even the most cynical members of the party, and will leave his audience believing anything is possible.

So you have a special event - A wedding, picnic, party or corporate retreat. You have shelled out money for food, seating, and maybe a little for booze. But that leaves one thing. What to do about entertainment? Your friend has an in with a DJ, but music can make venues so impersonal and loud, distracting from conversation and the purpose for the event. Moreover, all of these ideas are played out, nothing breaks the mold. No one would leave your event saying they experienced something new and memorable...something fantastic.

Let your guests rediscover wonder with the aid of Atlas Brookings, mind reader and psychic entertainer. His unique style of mind reading mixes psychology and body language inference with his quick and ready wit and will entertain your guests as he does the impossible: reaching into your guests' minds to reveal their thoughts.

Mark Waddington www.mark-waddington.co.uk
Mark Waddington is undoubtedly one of the most sought after Magicians within the UK. With several years of professional working experience under his belt, you know you are on to a safe bet booking him! Brides and grooms, corporate bosses and many others ask for Mark by name, because they know he will entertain guests in a unique fashion and create long lasting memories for guests and clients. He isn’t one of those cheesy sorts of magicians you so often see. He doesn’t dress in ties or braces covered in playing cards, he doesn’t wander around wearing a jacket covered in pin badges of little white rabbits sat in top hats. He doesn’t walk around with a sparkly magic wand in his pocket. Magic often has a bad name because of this stereotype, but Mark is here to break the mould. He dresses in a sharp and sophisticated style, which will make you sit back and realise that magic has been reborn! As a close up Magician, Mark Waddington will approach your guests in a friendly but unobtrusive fashion, and within minutes he will have them screaming with bewilderment and laughter at the micro miracles he performs inches from their faces. Many of Mark’s repeat clients knew they were on to a safe bet with him – not necessarily because they could see the tricks he can do, but because they heard the response he gets and can feel the atmosphere he creates in any room he walks in to. Most often, Mark is asked to perform as a table magician at weddings. He works at around 50 weddings per year, so knows exactly how to do it right. The most important thing about the wedding day is the bride and groom, and he knows this, so he won’t try to steal the limelight, but he will help to make it the most memorable day for the guests and the happy couple. Knowing that weddings rarely run to schedule, he can help to disguise any little hiccups that may occur and will use his experience to break the ice for guests who may not have met each other before, making the rest of the day a lot easier to handle for guests and the newlyweds alike. Mark is also a regular on the corporate scene performing his mind-blowing miracles as a close up magician. From groups of a dozen to hundreds of guests at a banquet or award ceremony, Mark can adapt his performance skills to give you the best value for money, and the best entertainment available around. Your delegates will remember the night for years to come, and your distinguished guests and shareholders will know you only operate with quality, which will shine through with Mark’s performance. Mark’s corporate clients include such names as Tesco, Cable and Wireless, Tri-pack Plastics, Cool Milk Ltd and many, many more. They all have something in common. They all came to Mark with a clear objective – to obtain the very best entertainment possible, and to prove to their guests that they are the best, through and through. Your company can and will benefit from using Mark as a Mix and Mingle Magician at your next corporate event, no matter how big or small. However, Mark isn’t just a close up Magician. He is also a highly entertaining and hugely funny stand up magic act. With shows ranging from 15 minutes to 50 minutes, Mark will have them rolling in the aisles, regardless of audience size! Mark has performed his stand up act to 20 people in a meeting room, ranging up to several hundred people in a theatre auditorium. No matter what venue or show, Mark is suited as the perfect magic act. Regardless of what event you are trying to organize, Mark is the ideal choice to add something that little bit different. From product launches to parties, from weddings to Works Christmas do’s, by hiring Mark, you will have people remember the date for years to come.
