Multi award winning magician Magic Ian brings over 30 years experience to a fast moving, colourful comedy magic show tailored for every age group from pre-school to pensioners. There is lots of audience involvement, and things get livelier still when he picks up his guitar and starts to sing. Children get the magic show and balloon modelling; adults get close-up magic performed at their elbow.
A long serving member of Edinburgh Magic Circle, Ian is a past President and held the role of Secretary for eight years. He is a two times winner of the West Lothian Magic Circle's President's Cup, a two times winner of the Harry Kidd Trophy and holder of the Tom Richardson Children's Magic Trophy for the best magic act.
