Amazing show!

Paul was fantastic from start to finish. Great communication, fabulous show and overall just brilliant. We booked Paul for a family birthday gathering and he did some amazing close up magic that really made the event. Paul’s sense of humour is a great addition to the experience and my family loved his delivery. If you want a professional, fun and interesting magic show, Paul is the man!

It was a very enjoyable booking to do and I trust your sister has recovered from being levitated! I hope you had a lovely stay in Bath for the rest of the weekend.
