Approach
Darren's approach, which is defined as 'Close-up Magic' in the trade, is quite perfect for weddings. Dispense with the classic misconceptions of children's entertainment and clowns, or the older vein of stage magicians who would place themselves at the centre of attention. Darren casually, unobtrusively and confidently strolls around and mingles with your guests during many stages of the wedding day, and has the ability to add that extra kick, that extra element of excitement and wonder to the celebrations.
Times Of The Day
If you have asked or hired a photographer to take a number of individual and group portraits during your wedding, this can potentially be a time-consuming task, during which certain guests might be left somewhat at a loose end. This presents an ideal opportunity for Darren to step in and have your uninvolved guests staring wide-eyed in amazement, or clutching their sides in laughter. The same applies to a typical post-ceremony drinks and canapés reception.
Not wishing in any way to interrupt the necessarily important ritual of eating, Darren is nevertheless able to participate in the formal wedding breakfast in between courses in order to keep your guests' appetites primed with more magic.
Roll on the celebrations of the night, and many of your evening guests will be arriving. Darren can greatly help them in breaking the ice with a little dose of close-up magic.
The Magic
Darren's repertoire should at the very least be described as a dazzling visual display. His excellent card skills, in which he is able to make cards appear to glide unbidden effortlessly through the air, bouncing and tapping them with ultimate precision as they go, make for a wonderful spectacle. Make sure you check out his '60 Seconds With A Deck Of Cards' clip on our video page!
A variety of rings, watches, wallets, balloons and coins - all simple everyday objects that Darren manipulates and has thereby developed his very own spellbinding myriad repertoire of acts, trompe l'oeils and tricks.
Although, if you are looking for a main showcase performance, say after your formal dinner is over, then Darren's Cabaret Act would be perfect, lasting by arrangement anywhere between 10 to 45 minutes.
Darren is far from being a 'one-trick pony'. Always looking to improve and extend the boundaries of his repertoire and act, no performance at two separate events is ever the same. He is continually looking for new magic to add to his skill-set.
Honey, What About The Kids?
Although Darren doesn't attend children's parties, he does come equipped with a few acts suitable for the enjoyment of youngsters and parents alike, so that they also can partake in the mesmerising fun of the magic.
