Incorporating completely original illusions only featured by Sean, this show will be one that is remembered and talked about for a long time!

Tony Blackburn
TV & Radio Personality

"Top of the speciality act tree!"
The Stage

“The audience were evidently overawed by the incredible demonstration. This was an illusionary act on a par with the best that David Blaine could offer.”
City Times - Dubai

"Not only did they meet our requirements, they exceeded them! They made a huge impression and there will be no hesitation in booking them again. No other illusionist will do - we've found the best!"
Alliance & Leicester

"I was particularly impressed with the flexibility you showed when our requirements changed over the course of the day. With our conference over-running slightly and with the stage size being smaller than planned, you took it all in your stride and worked around these things in a very professional way, which was very much appreciated by the organising committee."
Norwich Union

“The audience, including our Directors and Senior Managers loved it and remained seated and riveted for the full 45 minutes. I would recommend the show to anyone who is looking for a truly spectacular entertainment experience.”
Direct Table Foods Ltd

"Sean, just a short email to say a very big thank you to you for entertaining us at our Christmas lunch. The feedback received following the event was extremely positive and I have copied all below for you so you can read for yourself. From my point of view I just need to know where that huge balloon went to - you can't possibly have swallowed it...can you?!"
Hansells Solicitors

"Just a quick note to say thank you for your services at our wedding reception at Dunston Hall. We are so glad that we booked you to do magic during the wedding breakfast it was a real talking point amongst our guests, and was very entertaining. We still can't work out how you managed to get my engagement ring in to your wallet in your pocket! We will definitely recommend you to anyone who is thinking of having a magician at their wedding or indeed any event."
