Russ Stevens ~ Seminar #1

‘Making your magic more successful - It’s easier than you think!’
Sunday 19th August 2018

For the last five years, Russ Stevens has been the man behind some of the most successful magic on Britain’s Got Talent. Single-handedly he’s helped create hugely successful careers for James More, Jamie Raven and Issy Simpson and in the process made Simon Cowell a huge magic fan.

Now, for the first time, Russ is holding an intensive one-day seminar revealing in-depth the hidden secrets behind his successes and how YOU CAN APPLY THEM TO YOUR MAGIC TOO!

This seminar covers techniques for all kinds of magic: Close-Up, Stage, Cabaret, Illusion, Comedy Magic, Kids Shows and Mind-Reading.

Numbers will be strictly limited on a first-come first-served basis. This really will be a unique and immersive experience for all registrants who attend. The seminar will run from 10am – 6pm (with a one-hour lunch break).

Hands-on Workshops

Registrants will be invited to send in a short performance clip which is no longer than 5 minutes in duration (this is optional).

Russ will then select some of these and show just how he can improve the magic using some of the techniques discussed, with a hands-on demonstration and lesson.

All of these techniques can be applied to your magic!

COMPLIMENTARY GOODIE BAG
At the end of the day each registrant will be given a goodie bag valued at over £60.00. The gifts will all be applicable to some of the discussions and you will use them.
