Alan Watson
Close up Magic

An amazing act for your corporate dinner or intimate dining experience. Alan Watson has won many awards for his International standard close up table magic. How does he do it? And right beside your guests.
A truly great experience

Alan and his wife Michele are recipients of the prestigious DRAGON Award. It was presented at the Centennial Celebrations of the Society of American Magicians in New York on the 4th of July, 2002 by the previous recipients Paul and Debbie Daniels from England.
The DRAGON Award recognises a lifetime achievement by a team in Magic who excels in Drama, Romance, Artistry, Glamour, Originality, and Necromancy. Alan was awarded the Benny for Top Magician from the Variety Artists Club - for four consecutive years. At the Society of American Magicians Convention in Las Vegas, he was appointed International Deputy for New Zealand, by past President, Craig Dickson.
Alan's strolling magic is perfect for cocktail parties or receptions. He performs his magic in the hands of your guests, using cards, coins, jewellery and other magical props. This intimate style of performance allows the flow of the party to move uninterrupted and is an excellent ice breaker.

Ideal for: mix and mingle entertainment for pre ball, company function, private party, shop opening, strolling situation

Hi Pete
Just to let you know, Alan was great yesterday at our Café and Information Centre Opening event. He arrived on time and stayed to the very last minute, and he certainly worked every minute he was here, entertaining everybody at their tables. He was very friendly to deal with and very flexible.

Good morning Pete,
The ball was a success on Sat night and this is due in no small part to the success of Alan Watson. He was a fantastic table magician and his skills and professionalism was enjoyed and marvelled at by all. It was great to have such fantastic entertainment during the evening and I hope Alan enjoyed himself as much as everyone enjoyed him. Please pass on the Ball committees gratitude to Alan and thank him for his wonderful entertainment.
Thank you also to you for all your assistance and direction in engaging Alan for the night and I hope we can book many more entertainers through you in the future
Kind regards,
