I believe magic exists in the world today. Real magic, is one that is experienced in the mind of the audience. My role is to simply take you on a journey into a world that is not supposed to exist. Imagine if you woke up in a world that was different. Things don't work as if they should. The physics do not make sense and everything seems "normal" but it's not.
My journey in magic started as a child. I was always mesmerized by magicians, whether on TV or in person. They were my superheros with what appeared to be real life superhero abilities. I have dedicated the last 12 years to studying the art of magic. Countless hours have been spent in books, practicing, attending lecturers, and workshops with some of the best magicians in the world. I have been blessed to not only meet my heroes, but to also share the stage with them.
My paintbrush can be a deck of cards, or something as simple as a coin. My canvas is the journey I take you on. A journey where people forget about their everyday problems, and experience a sense of wonder and amazement. I hope one day, I can share my passion for creating a magical experience with you.
An ideal complement to any celebration, this strolling style of magic is perfect for any social situation such as a cocktail hour or reception. Your guests will talk about it far after the event is over as the magic happens inches away and in their very own hands. Whether it's going from table to table or walking around mingling with guests, your guests will experience their very own close-up and personal magic show.
A unique stand-up act for a sitting audience of 10 to 60 people. This performance will require an area where your guests will be able to view and see the magic. An alternative table sit-down show is also available for smaller audiences. A brief stand-up act can be combined or followed with close-up / strolling magic.
This demonstration requires a table, and can only accommodate a few guests at a time. Calvin will demonstrate various ways people cheat at cards, such as dealing any poker hand called for, false cuts, false shuffles, controlling a card anywhere in the deck, bottom dealing, and various card palming techniques. Keep in mind, this is only a demonstration in techniques that Calvin has mastered through years of practice, and is not a workshop to teach people how to cheat at cards.
