What is Close-up Magic?

Close-up magic is an involving, intimate piece of personal entertainment, designed to be enjoyable, mystifying and, above all, memorable.

It is magic performed to small groups of people by a magician who carries everything he needs on him and who can move smoothly from one group or area to another, providing an unusual mobile entertainment service.

In Iain's expert hands, cards, coins and other everyday objects do impossible things, right under your nose and sometimes even in your own hands.

Because Iain works to small groups, he is able to involve his spectators completely, in a way that virtually no other form of entertainment can. Many people have never seen magic performed so close before and it is a source of enormous fascination and amusement!

It is suitable for any group, of practically any size. It requires no special staging, lighting or venue. It is perfect for creating atmosphere and it is an ideal adjunct to music, dancing or eating.

Close-up magic is different - it is modern - and Iain Moran is one of the UK's top exponents of it.
