CLOSE-UP MAGICIANS
Close-up magic is one of the most powerful forms of busking entertainment. Startling and intruiging, the magic happens right under the noses of the audience.
The magician mingles informally, or moves from table to table. The audience bursts into laughter or shrieks in disbelief as they experience totally impossible feats – right in their own hands. This type of magic has been popularized on TV in recent years by magicians such as Dynamo and David Blaine.
Popular close up magic includes such feats as spoon bending and reading the spectators minds.
