Darren Kidby
Magician

Magic may look impressive on television but for a live audience, whether large or small, nothing can compare to the atmosphere of seeing magic performed just a few inches from their eyes with his standard 2 hour set baffling even the greatest sceptics!

As audiences become more and more sophisticated there is an increasing call for something different, something you don't see every time you watch a magician. Darren offers close-up magic with a difference that has entertained and tantalised audiences from the streets of London to the bright lights of Las Vegas.

Darren is also an ideal compliment to a themed Casino Night -
"A fool and his money are easily parted, so the saying goes, and if the job is done right the fool doesn't even realise it's happened until the wily con artist has moved on to his next victim or next town."

As 'The Boston Gambler', Darren will demonstrate (in a very entertaining way) how easy it is to be parted with your hard-earned cash! Using some old con-games and betchya's you have seen before and some you haven't - he may even teach you one or two.

Journalists are not the most easily impressed people but one who has seen Darren perform said "One of the most amazing sessions of close-up magic I have ever seen".

What People Have Said

Darren recently received the vote of confidence from Alive Network staff after performing at the wedding party of one of Alive's Event Co-ordinators. He made it a night to remember with his great sense of humour and ice-breaking talent and guests were amazed at his close-up magic skills. A big thanks from the Alive Network team.
