How Does Up Close Magic Work?
Up Close Magic is personalized entertainment. Your guests get a show just for them! Jeff Lefton visits your guests right at their tables or groups. He thrills them with their own private mini-magic show. Money changes denominations, objects appear in guests’ hands and much more.
Jeff literally goes where your guests are. No staging needed. No special lighting. No sound system. Jeff arrives and instantly starts entertaining your guests. It’s the easiest entertainment option ever!
Many people have never seen professional magic done right under their noses. Close-up magic is a fun, intimate, interactive experience that your guests will remember and talk about for a long time!
There are 2 types of up-close magic:
“Thanks for your ‘brilliant’ performance at the Cargill Feedlot Seminar. You kept ’em spellbound and were certainly the topic of conversation the next day. I kept hearing remarks like, “Did you see that trick with the dollar bill?” Or “How did he get that guy’s ring on his keychain?” This was one of the most entertaining evenings the Feedlot Seminar has ever enjoyed.”
Monica Sirek, Sales Promotion Manager, Cargill
Strolling / Close-Up Magician
“We hired Jeff to “stroll” and perform magic tricks and entertain our clients, and he was amazing!! Very funny and talented, everyone loved him! We highly recommend Jeff Lefton!”
Melanie Wilson, Kellar Williams Realty
As a close-up magician, Jeff Lefton moves from one group to another, giving each group their own, individual performance! Also known as ‘walk around magic,’ this entertainment is perfect for a cocktail hour where your guests are standing around. It also works well going from table to table. It’s perfect for entertaining guests (for instance) at a banquet or luncheon. And strolling magic is flexible! Jeff can perform before, during, or after the meal.
Some events, like open houses, have guests coming and going throughout the event. Jeff’s strolling magician entertainment brings interactive fun to attendees no matter when they arrive. It’s easy!
Strolling close-up magic can stand on its own, or it can warm up the crowd for an after-dinner show. For instance, at a banquet, Jeff can ‘warm up’ the group with fun close-up magic before dinner. This gets everyone excited for a full stage show after the meal.
Table magic is the second form of close-up magic. Instead of strolling, the close-up magician performs at a table and guests gather around to enjoy the show. Table close-up magician Jeff can present multiple table magic shows throughout your event. For more info, see our Magicians Party page.
With Jeff’s stage show, guests are typically seated at banquet tables, or theater style in rows. With Jeff’s table magic show, guests are much closer for a more intimate magical experience. They may be seated in a C or U shape around the table, with possibly some guests standing in the back if they prefer.
“When you see a magician on stage, you figure he has wires or things up his sleeve that I can’t see, being far away. But when he does things 1 foot away and I still can’t see what he’s doing—that is impressive!”
Table Close-Up Magician
“Jeff Lefton was contracted to entertain for a very special cocktail party for our Ramada Regulars Club. He roamed the room doing personalized tricks for small groups and later did a stand up show for the entire party. The reception was spectacular. Before leaving, over half of the attendees commented to me personally how much they enjoyed our entertainment.”
Thomas Hibsman, Sales & Marketing Director, Ramada Inn Airport
“On behalf of the members of the Academy of Magical Arts and all of the guests that saw your performances last week, I want to thank you for a job well done. I heard nothing but compliments on your performance and we do hope you will return to Los Angeles in the not-too-distant future.”
William Larsen, President, The Magic Castle
