magic man Indeed
we were privileged to see David and his amazing skills yesterday at a party in Sheffield….he was captivating and so skilled and we are still baffled as to how he did the magic….it must have taken him a lot of time and dedication to create his magic and I’m sure he will go from strength to strength and continue to amaze people….I was watching the faces of the other guests and they were all as amazed as we were…so if anyone is looking for an entertaining magic man then David is the man…well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Magikman was fantastic
Magikman was fantastic. I’ve seen many close up magicians over the years and the show magic man put on was bar far the best I’ve seen. Very original tricks over a 2 hour period and all guests mentioned how amazing he was. Excellent value for money as well.

Magikman at our son's wedding celebration
Magikman entertained our guests at our son's wedding celebration. His magic at close quarters was brilliant and all our guests were amazed at his performance as he went around the tables. He respectfully approached each table when he felt it was appropriate and was very pleasant with guests young and old. Would certainly recommend to anyone.

Fantastic entertainment
Fantastic entertainment. Had all of our wedding guests in the palm of his hand with his magic and still have no idea how he did them. Faultless performance and best decision we made (after the service 😂) having a magician at our wedding 👍👍

WOW what can I say, David aka Magikman was incredible at our company event last week! Super professional and totally bamboozled us all with the magic! Everyone still talking about how he did the tricks he did! Took time to entertain pre dinner, then a few tricks at each table which made it feel personal without being intrusive. Fantastic!
