“What attracted us to Phil initially was that he is a member of The Magic Circle so knew he would be a calibre above the rest and he did not disappoint! From first contact Phil was a pleasure. Warm, accommodating and just lovely to speak to so we were confident in our decision to hire him for my 40th Birthday Party. On the night Phil arrived promptly, well and sharply dressed and got straight into engaging with guests and their reactions were a sight to behold! Ooh's and Aarr's from the get go, he entertained us spectacularly. Great range of tricks and delivery was impeccable, lots of laughs had along the way too. Phil really was delightful person both with personality and talent. Clearly with a passion for his craft. Thank you for entertaining us so well Phil we will definitely be booking you again and would highly recommend for anyone considering Phil for their event. The man is magic with superpowers!”

“We booked Phil for my mum's 70th birthday party (with 50 guests aged 4 to 100), and it was the best decision. He was a fantastic alternative to a traditional stage performer, effortlessly moving through groups and keeping the party flowing without taking the focus off my mum. Phil's close-up magic and mind tricks blew everyone away, and his brilliant humour made him an absolute hit with all ages. Everyone is still talking about it—100% recommend, worth every penny!”
