A full-time professional close-up magician and pickpocket, Matt will captivate your guests with astonishing sleight-of-hand tricks and astound them with his exceptional pickpocketing skills (Matt can even steal someone’s tie and wear it himself without them noticing!). He is guaranteed to have everyone laughing as he performs. From an intimate private gathering to a corporate event with hundreds of attendees, you can trust that your guests' entertainment is in good hands.

Matt has appeared on TV in the UK and internationally, performed for royalty, celebrities, premiership footballers, and top businessmen. He has been flown to events in Monte Carlo, Dubai, Qatar, Hong Kong, Istanbul, Berlin, Jersey, Le Touquet, and more. He has entertained aboard cruise ships, at the renowned Magic Circle, and promoted companies and their products at Trade Shows across Europe and the UK. Matt has also been the resident magician at Manchester United since 2000.

Interestingly, Matt has the rare distinction of probably being the only individual to have ever pickpocketed a member of The Royal Family and lived to tell the tale... for now.

  • Typically at company dinners Matt entertains as a close-up and table magician performing during the reception drinks to break the ice and enliven the atmosphere gathering guests in groups to enjoy the entertainment. Once the guests are seated Matt will perform close-up table magic introducing himself to each table in turn bringing laughter and a touch of magic to your event.

  • Matt’s pickpocketing skills are unique: he has possibly the fastest watch-steal on the planet and can even take someone’s tie off and put it on himself without them knowing. Matt will surprise your guests with his deft pickpocketing techniques and he’s guaranteed to get your guests laughing as he does it. In fact Matt often uses the moment people laugh to remove items from them. He also uses his skills as a close up magician to distract people’s attention from their belongings but can also pickpocket whilst disguised as a security guard as a character as a waiter or even the MC.
  • Close-Up & Table Magic
  • With Matt’s extensive performing experience he is happy to discuss how his close up magic might best compliment your day. Although very flexible typically Matt will mix in with the guests and entertain them during one or more of the following times: during the photos/reception drinks around the tables for the wedding breakfast and at the evening party.
  • Undercover Magic
  • Your guests will be surprised by the unusual service that Magician Matt (disguised as a waiter) provides. He subtly introduces a plausible yet eccentric combination of “Fawlty Towers” service and bumbling waitering that is guaranteed to get the guests talking. Matt bemuses guests with his harmless antics and to their amusement introduces his amateur magical skills. These turn out to be peculiarly proficient actually quite magical and get everyone laughing.
  • As dinner draws to a close and the coffee is served your guests will be most surprised to see their waiter is actually the after-dinner entertainment and even more so when he starts by returning many of their belongings!
