THE SHORT VERSION

HE DIDN'T START
IN A WAISTCOAT.

Phil got into magic at 11. As a teenager he was doing bar bets and street-style sleight of hand, and he turned pro in 2016.

He is now a full-time performer, working weddings, corporate events, VIP work, awards, launches, private events and stage shows.

He is now a Member of The Magic Circle, Vice Chairman of the Sussex Magic Circle and a multi-award-winning stage magician and mentalist.

THE STYLE

CAPS. TATTOOS.
SHARP MAGIC.

Phil's look is not a costume. It is just Phil.

The same applies to the act. No glittery waistcoats, no dated presentation and no pretending to be mysterious. The material is modern sleight of hand, mind reading, audience interaction and quick wit.

Before becoming a full-time magician, Phil had already built and run another business. That matters when he is working for event teams and corporate clients: emails get answered, timings matter and he understands that being easy to work with is part of the job.
