Lewis Belcher | 01752 936 086 http://lbmagic.uk | www.facebook.com/lbmagicuk Meet the expert: Jon Martin is a full-time magician and member of The Magic Circle available seven days a week to take part at events including hen parties. He performs both close-up magic and house party shows across the South West. Jon says: The hen parties I have worked at previously have been close-up magic performed during a meal (either at lunchtime or during the evening) both in a restaurant and at a private residence. My house party show is a mixture of close-up magic and bigger routines to entertain the entire room. The tricks are a mixture of mind reading along with card and coin tricks and I can also create a bespoke routine based on the hobbies and interests of the bride-to-be (or indeed anyone at the party). I’m currently working on a Buffy the Vampire Slayer trick for an upcoming hen party. My magic shows are fun, different and packed full of audience involvement.
