The Close-Up Show
Chicago Magic Lounge · Chicago, Illinois
William Pack served as the magic consultant for Will Smith on the film Ali, and specialises in Chicago-style close-up magic: a blend of world-class sleight-of-hand and good clean fun performed inches from the guests.
A regular at the Chicago Magic Lounge, he has been trusted by clients including Abbott Labs, Firestone and Navy Pier. The magic works as an icebreaker, giving strangers something incredible to talk about and carrying a buzz from one group of guests to the next until the whole room lifts. With decades of experience, William arrives early, asks for no stage and no complicated tech, and brings smart, hilarious entertainment to corporate gatherings and private events alike.
