Q. What magic do you do?
A. I do children's magic parties, close-up (or strolling) magic in restuarants, weddings, corporate functions, tradeshows and stage. In fact, any special occasion where the enchantment of magic will add plenty of atmosphere!
Q. How much do you charge for children's parties?
A. It depends! However, for a typical 45 min - 1 hour show costs are around $325 - $425. The reason there is a range is because it depends on how far I have to travel (I currently live in North Curl Curl) and the day and time. I cover the whole of the Sydney region and these costs include my travel time. No other hidden charges. The price I quote to you on the phone (or email) is the price you pay on the day.
Q. How much do you charge for "close-up" magic for restaurants, weddings, corporate etc?
A. It depends! See above. I discount children's parties to make them affordable for parents. For classic magic such as close-up or stage magic fees are charged more appropriately. For example, to hire me for an hour in a restaurant to perform close-up magic to your friends and family at the tables would be around $375 - $450 (add $150 for another hour). These figures are just to give you a realistic idea - give me a call today and we discuss your particular requirements.
Q. How do I book you and what else do I need to do?
A. Simply phone me on 0451 124 565 or 0280213028 or email me at shane.king@consultant.com and let me know the date, time, age of child and number of children coming to the party. Sit back and relax in the knowledge that on the special day I will arrive 30 minutes early to set up the magic show, enthrall your children for an hour and then pack up and vanish! All you need to do is think about where you would like me to set up the show (4 metres x 2 metres is usually plenty of space, indoors or outdoors).
Q. Can the kids participate in the show?
A. Absolutely! In fact, nearly half of the show involves me picking boys and girls to help me do the magic. This also provides fantastic photo opportunities for the parents!
