This one is from a good friend of mine. Matt Johnson and I used to go to the same Magic Shop together in Sheffield. We spent most Saturdays in the shop as teenagers. Then he moved to Canada and has been very successful over there. Recently, he came back to perform on Britain’s Got Talent. […]

Most magicians, including me, perform ‘tricks’. David Blaine performs tricks. He performs them very well! However, he also does stuff like this! WARNING: Seriously, if you have a weak stomach, don’t watch this. Still here? Here you go then … I do hope that you weren’t trying to eat! Until next Monday, Check Damian’s availability […]

This effect has been performed by dozens, maybe hundreds of magicians. None of them has ever come close to doing it as well as the Pendragons! Don’t blink … I told you! Until next Monday, Check Damian’s availability for your event

Shin Lim has caused quite a stir in the magic community. This performance is one of the most watched of any of the acts who have appeared on Penn & Teller’s Fool Us. Take a look to see why … Smoking! Until next Monday, Check Damian’s availability for your event

To be honest, the style of magic in this week’s Monday Magic is not usually my cup of tea. When I see someone playing around with scarves, doves and candles, I tend to switch off. However, some people do it so well that the naff becomes great! This routine is a few decades old now […]

If you were to ask a random selection of magicians to list their favourite magicians, David Williamson would be in the top 3 of most of them. Not only does he do great magic, […]

I actually worked on the effect in this week’s Monday Magic clip. I’ve been friends with Ali Cook since we were both teenagers and have helped him develop numerous magic effects for his stage and TV appearances. Here’s an effect that we put together for one of his Edinburgh Fringe shows. Penn & Teller’s producers […]

Eric Jones has been doing beautiful close-up magic for years. He is very well known within the magic community, but in 2017 his audience became much larger. He got all the way through to the semi-finals on America’s Got Talent. Here’s one of the performances that got him there … Until next Monday, Check Damian’s […]

This is an old clip, but a real moment in the history of magic. Remember when ‘Sawing in half’ involved putting an attractive female assistant in an oversized box? With little variation, the trick remained the same for years. Then David Copperfield stunned the world with a reworking of the old plot. Not only was […]

This week’s Monday Magic comes from Yann Frish. Yann’s performances are unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Imagine a juggler, who finds magic going on all around him and the experience sends him mad! That’s as good a description as I can think of, but no description can do this justice. Take a look for […]
