CORPORATE CHRISTMAS FUNCTIONS!

 CORPORATE CHRISTMAS FUNCTIONS! 

I had the pleasure of sharing my sleight of hand magic with the team at the 'Kelly and Partners'  this evening. 

It was an elegant night of meals and magic at Mereweather Surfhouse Newcastle.

I'm doing multiple functions each day now until Santa comes. I'll be doing Festive Functions and end of year celebrations for butchers, bakers and candlestick makers!

SANTA CLAUSE IS COMING TO TOWN!

I'm sharing some festive magic at Penrith Panthers Club's Evan Theatre for the VIP Rewards Christmas Variety Spectacular!

It's a privilege to be working with Santa and Mrs Clause again. I've even been talked into joining the rest of the cast on stage to sing a Christmas carol as part of the finale 🎅🤶

WELL DONE MIA!

It's very exciting to see my assistant Mia in the role of Dance Captin of "Pop Stars". The show is packed with dance numbers and 90’s pop classics.

Mia and I will both be 'appearing and disappearing' in a family friendly magic spectacular at Richmond School Of Arts Theatre during the Christmas holidays (with special thanks to Rainbow Children's Entertainment). For more information visit:

A FUNNY STORY!

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of working with the Year 5 students at St Phillips Christian College. They were a great group and my program was well received. 

I arrived early and while waiting at the front of the campus building for the Groundsman to direct me to the Drama rooms, a school staff member stopped to chat with me. She thanked me for the great show I did at her Daughter's 6th Birthday. She paused her story and said, "my daughter is here today, I'll go and grab her as she would love to see you again and personally thank you for the show".

Next thing I know the lady returned with one of the Kindergarten Teachers - a very professional looking lady in a blazer!  To my surprise that Kindergarten teacher WAS her Daughter who I apparently did the show for years ago 😅 I was not much older than she was at the time of her birthday party!

It's a great pleasure to be sharing my sleight of hand magic at The Commodore's Gala Dinner at The Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club - RPAYC this evening. 

It's an elegant night of Meals,  Magic, Music, and a silent auction to raise money for Alfred's Community Sailing Program.

IN THE NEWS!

Three years ago, I said yes to a "Roving Elf Character" job in Maitland. A colleague who was booked to do it got COVID and I thought it was good Karma to help out. On the day of the gig there was a photographer present who snapped a few photographs for future promotions.  

Today, I picked up a copy of Newcastle Weekly Magazine and spotted a photo of myself as an Elf!

This unexpected publicity is great for my "Elf - esteem"?! 




STAFF WELL-BEING!

This evening I had the special privilege of presenting a well-being session for a group of Early Childhood Educators.

I suspect that some Educators who are very passionate about what they do, work so hard at looking after children that they may forget about looking after themselves too! It was great to get together with them and have some laughs, some fun and some pizza! 

Send me a message if you would like to discuss having me work with your team in 2025. I have unique options (such as puzzles, crafts, juggling workshops and world class magic shows ) available.
