The corporate Christmas party season is already in full swing. Thank you to Idex Consulting for the first of what I’m sure will be a very busy period. “The event was a big success and the feedback was great. Everyone thought your magic was superb!” Stuart McKenna.
It’s always tricky to get images of myself performing, especially at weddings where there’s always tons of guests to entertain. So when I get a few pics from happy brides it’s a fantastic bonus. Just a few from recent weddings in the last couple of months.
“Just wanted to say thank you so much for yesterday. It was amazing and our guests absolutely loved you. Everyone is talking about you this morning and how brilliant the magic was. You really did make our day. Cannot thank you enough.”
“Mark you were amazing. All our guests have spoken about you and you definitely brought some special magic to our day.”

I’ve been so busy performing that my social media has taken a back seat recently. But after performing at one of my favourite venues in Scotland, House for an Art Lover, and receiving this lovely testimonial, I felt compelled to share it. A big thank you to Carolyn and family, 20th July 2019.
“Dear Mark,
You got the party off to a flying start with your terrific magic tricks and set the tone for the whole evening as everyone was laughing and it just lasted all night. Thanks also for making sure that everyone was involved and you made sure no-one was left out, that was much appreciated. I hope I can find another reason to have a party , and when I do you will definitely be invited for a return visit.
Best Regards,
Carolyn.”
Performing in Arta recently. It’s a fantastic venue for close-up magic with a great atmosphere. Thank you to Liz Douglas and family.
I’m very excited to be a part of Ruth Ewan’s ‘Sympathetic Magick’ project for the Edinburgh Art Festival (26th July to 26th August). I am currently developing a children’s show designed to empower and inspire kids of all ages. I will post full details soon.

I am pleased to announce I will be back at the Kelvingrove Bandstand this summer as part of a Harry Potter day. My show will be from 11am to 12 noon on July 5th. These events are usually free for families but I will post more news when I get it. Hope to see you there.
I was honoured to be invited to the Glasgow School of Art to help its Design and Innovation students come up with some creative magic tricks. Can’t wait to see what they will come up with…
I had the great pleasure of performing at David Sherry’s exhibition I See Doors of Opportunity Where There Are No Doors at the Civic Room, Glasgow. Trying to sell total crap and receipts by using my magic skills was certainly unusual. £21 of sales in one hour though. The crap is appreciating fast so best get down there before the exhibition closes this weekend.

This week I was teaching magic to complex needs children at Broomlea school. Very rewarding! I am currently looking to provide more therapeutic workshops like this free of charge so please let me know if you’d be interested.
Just a quick heads up: I will be putting in a public performance at The Forge shopping centre from 12 – 4pm. If you’re into close-up magic, mind reading or magic related games get yourself along. Fun for all the family.
