My love for magic started when I was a child like most people with Dad pulling 10p from behind my ear.  One day I saw a magician called Faust produce a leopard,  he totally amazed me because this was all live on stage,  not a T.V. in sight I thought WOW!  I then watched all the magic I could from the cool hippy style of Doug Henning to the smarmy David Copperfield.  I watched Paul Daniels religiously and tried to work out how he did his illusions.  Thankfully I have managed to meet and in some cases work with some of my heroes.

 I started as a professional Magician in 1989, with a season lined up in a holiday camp in Scotland .  So this year will mark my 15th anniversary of being a professional entertainer. During the season I was moved and promoted twice acting as a trouble shooter at problem camps. I ended the season as Deputy Entertainment's Manager in Hastings. I decided to move back to the North-East and over the years I have slowly built up a reputation for providing good solid entertainment for whatever the occasion may need. I have performed all over the country and Europe in various Pubs, Clubs, Camps and Businesses.

I received a certain amount of Fame/Notoriety a couple of years ago when the fact that I am allergic to rabbits came out in a local paper. I guess it must have been a quiet news week that week for within a couple of days I had been interviewed by and appeared in most of the National and Local press and Radio Stations, which led to TV appearances on Northern Life, Sky News and even Richard & Judy.  I have recently appeared in Full House magazine, where they released a full 2 page article about me and the allergy to my rabbit.

I am still allergic to rabbits and I still use them in the show, because lets be honest a magician with out a rabbit? Whoever heard anything so daft? I have a 16 year-old son Daniel, who likes to help out at the odd show, in fact he is now a known close up magician within his own right.
