Pickpocket Team
This Pickpocket Team features Rob, Matt, James, and Richard—four of the quickest undercover pickpockets in the country, showcasing the ancient and hilarious art of pickpocketing!
Rob, the founder of the team, is a modern entertainer and a member of The Magic Circle. He specializes in delivering astonishing interactive close-up magic and table magic for events across the UK. Rob is one of the country’s top-rated professional close-up magicians and has wowed guests at over 2200 events nationwide.
Matt’s pickpocketing skills are one of a kind: he probably has the fastest watch-steal in the world and can even remove someone's tie and put it on himself without them noticing. Matt will amaze your guests with his skillful pickpocketing techniques and is guaranteed to have them laughing out loud. In fact, Matt often capitalizes on moments of laughter to make his moves. He also uses his close-up magic skills to distract people from their belongings and can pickpocket while disguised as a security guard, a character, a waiter, or even the MC.
James was named The Magic Circle's Close-Up Magician of the Year in 2006 and also took second place in the 2006 International Magic Convention Close-Up competition. His style blends close-up magic with pickpocketing, all delivered with a humorous touch. His sleight of hand magic, pickpocketing, and hypnotic suggestion have made him one of the most sought-after magical entertainers in the UK.
Richard became a full-time professional magician in his early twenties. He has been booked to perform for numerous national companies and celebrities, including Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear fame and Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton. In 2008, after being nominated by two highly esteemed members, Richard successfully passed the examination criteria and was granted full membership in the world-renowned Magic Circle in London.
Together, these four incredible and multi-award-winning magician-pickpockets can team up to work undercover at your event, adding a uniquely hilarious and entertaining element.
