Of all the different forms that exist, it is close up magic that comes under most scrutiny, as the audience is actively watching for any trickery or slight of hand. Yet for the very same reasons, it is also the most captivating type of magic, as it can have people gasping in disbelief as things disappear or change appearance in front of their eyes.

As International Brotherhood of Magicians Close Up Champion 2005 and a close runner up in The Magic Circle Close Up Magician of the Year 2003 & 2006, Tim Shoesmith is considered to be one of the best magicians performing this type of magic today and is guaranteed to bring an added element of excitement to any event.

Though strange as it may sound, it’s not just about the magic, as a good magician must be able to engage his audience. Armed with a dry sense of humour, Tim has developed an easy style over the last 25 years that draws people into his magic and leaves them feeling amused and bemused – a perfect combination!

 

Tim regularly performs inthe Close Up Room at the Magic Castle in Hollywood and also represents the Magic Circle at its corporate events.  He was also one of a handful chosen to represent the Magic Circle when it was invited to perform in Los Angeles as part its centenary celebrations.

So if you are organising an event, you can hire Tim in the knowledge he will not only keep your guests entertained, but will also add to the overall atmosphere and help remove some of the pressures that come with being a host.
