  • Why Our Magic?

    Why Our Magic?

    Why magic? Why our magic? What is it about our magic that makes it so unique, powerful, and engaging?

    There are so many reasons why we love our magic. In the next few paragraphs, we will look at just some of them.

    Top of our list is that it provides us with a way of entertaining, engaging, and connecting with people. There is nothing better than seeing people enjoy what we do and hearing their laughter. Unique to magic is the sense of mystery and astonishment that we can add to that list. It is about creating a deeply satisfying feeling of delight. And, just like all enterprises, that feeling of delight is our ultimate goal.

    Our magic business is, in one respect, exactly like every other enterprise: We are in the business of understanding people and anticipating their wants, needs, desires, and perceptions.

    We use this understanding to entertain, engage, and to create enjoyment, delight, and satisfaction. That is why magic works as entertainment, but it also works to help you gain insights into how people think.

    Our aim is always to move ourselves and our artform forward. Our performances, our material, our approach, our art, our magic.

    This means that we are always searching for new ways of travelling into the realms of imagination, creativity, and amazement. For us, magic illustrates and illuminates:

    • The power of perception
    • Different ways of thinking
    • Thinking out of the box
    • Breaking down perceptual barriers
    • Bringing out playfulness in all of us

    Our magic is all about disrupting conventional thought and stimulating your imagination. As Einstein once said; “Imagination is more important than knowledge.” You can take the essence of our art and use it in energising, revitalising, and stimulating creativity across all endeavours in all other fields. 

    Our belief is that imagination is our greatest force: a force that can power boundless success in your life, and a magical force that stimulates boundless imagination.

    As magicians, the imagination we put into our magic can be an invaluable source to your business.

  • Your Story. Your People. Our Magic.

    Your Story. Your People. Our Magic.

    Imagine if you went to your favourite clothes shop – anything from the High Street big names to those fancy independents that stock only the most sophisticated and exclusive threads, woven single handedly by a blind woman on the mountainside of Tibet – and there it is: Your perfect piece of clothing. It’s in your favourite colour, it’s made of your favourite material, it smells like your favourite childhood sweet and it even comes at an affordable cost. And yet… 

    You find the one you’ve instantly picked up to small. And the next one. And the next one. And the one after that. Each and every single piece is the exact same size. There’s no lee-way. There’s no budging. There’s no flexibility. You get what you’re given and there is no alternative.

    This is the One-Size-Fits-All Mentality that most performances have. But we don’t settle for it for our clothes, or our food, or anything else worth while. Why would you settle for a One-Size-Fits-All approach when it comes to entertainment?

    What we do is more unique and special – we personalise as much of our magic as possible to make our performances unique and extremely memorable to your special occasion!

    What we love doing is more unique and special than this restrictive, set-piece driven performances – we personalise as much of our magic as possible to make our performances unique and extremely memorable for you and your guests.

    This means it’s no longer not about ‘one-size-fits-all’ way of doing our magic – it’s about you, finding and making our magic right for you so it fits just right. We customise, personalise, hand-make and tailor-fit our magic so it feels like a perfect fit.

    For instance, our signature piece involves an intimate and astounding moment of magic that leaves people speechless and with a handmade, personalised, treasured piece of art they can keep forever as a souvenir. People shout and scream when they see this piece performed, not just because the magic is so strong, but because it’s utterly unique to them.

    Magic

    By integrating our magic with you, your brand, your story, your people, your theme and your materials, we make your event astounding, vibrant and unique for your guests. 

    Involving your story means taking on elements of your brand – where you’ve been, why the business was started, where it’s going, who’s played a part in it, what you’re long term goals are and who your audience are – and building bespoke presentations and routines around them. This makes everything we do much more meaningful for you and your guests.

    Getting your people involved also leads to an incredibly memorable evening – your CEO, HR Manager, Team Leader or even the head of Accounts, any and all of these people are welcome to be involved directly with our incredible and artistic signature piece. This isn’t cringe-worthy, embarrassing children’s magic – this is a once-in-a-lifetime oppourtunity for people to be an integral part of a powerful, artisanal, personalised magic performance.

    Whether this is for a Corporate Event, Team Meetings, Away Days, Conferences, Tradeshows, Annual Dinners, Christmas Parties or other Festive Events, Award Ceremonies or Product Launches, our personalised magic creates a buzz of excitement, breaks the ice between groups and gets people talking for years to come.

     We pride ourselves on maintaining high standards. We promptly answer emails, phone calls and text messages, we’re always flexible with our arrangements and we always arrive early to meet with you and ensure everything is in place.

  • Never Not Very Extraordinary

    Never Not Very Extraordinary

    So much of our everyday lives are spent doing the ordinary: taking out the rubbish, cleaning our desks, organising our schedules, listening to relatives tell the same old boring stories, doing the washing up, catching up on new Netflix shows, trying not to get depressed by watching the news.⁠

    But then, every so often, we get to put on something extraordinary like the Psychological Artistry Magic show.

    And for an hour or so, we get to embody a pair of characters who are, quite literally, magical.

    Embodying magical people makes your world feel never not very extraordinary!

    Being able to embody these mystical, magical (and quite frankly, utterly stupid) characters, is a wild privilege. It’s a fantasy that a very slim proportion of the population gets to endure and enjoy.

    Embodying magical people like this makes your whole world feel never not very extraordinary!

    Magic

    We get to live in these people’s strange and extraordinary world. Their loopy world, their sad world, their incredible world.

    This world lets us read people’s minds, exist in a plain where terrible puns are cartoonishly real, where we can predict and influence the future, where we can achieve the extraordinary, and most importantly, where magic itself is absolutely real.⁠

    But this is only half of the picture: if there’s one thing we’ve learned from the terrible and tragic events of the last 2 years, it’s that our once ordinary lives could do with a little more appreciation of the extraordinary moments.

    The World Is A Magical Place

    The things we used to consider boring, plain and mundane – going on buses, sitting in cafes, walking around city centres, running into our neighbours, making idle chit chat, shaking hands, hugging our loved ones – these are the things we missed most during the darkest days of the Coronavirus Pandemic.

    The pandemic taught us that the moments we once considered ordinary are, in fact, extra ordinary.⁠

    Reaching a balance between our ordinary, down to earth existence and the extraordinary, fantastical, magical and mystical versions of ourselves has shown us that these little, ordinary moments are what make our lives truly magical.

    We like to finish most of our performances with the following quote: “The world is full of magical things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.”

    From the devastating impact on our business, to tremendous mental and physical health problems, to the slow road of recovery from COVID itself, and the strange, unknowable effect this will have on our future generations, the last few years has left us with one indelible lesson: hold on tight to what you thought was the once plain and every day, and you’ll see these moments anew; as Never Not Very Extraordinary. ⁠
