Close-up and Strolling Magic So you really want to add a magical touch to an upcoming event, but a full stage show just doesn′t seem appropriate? Fear not, dear friend. That′s why, in addition to his regular stage material, Matt also performs close-up and strolling magic to complement whatever function you can imagine. Combining world-class sleight-of-hand with the same comedy and personality that has made him so popular onstage, Matt has performed his close-up and strolling magic at corporate events, private celebrations, fundraisers, and other functions for groups ranging in size from 10 people to 10,000 people.

For the uninitiated, the term "close-up magic" refers to magic performed for small groups using everyday objects such as cards, coins, money, silks, and balls. Entirely reliant on sleight-of-hand, close-up magic happens just inches away from the audience. Additionally, Matt always uses audience participants while performing his close-up, thereby giving spectators a very special "hands on" magical experience.

What is "strolling" magic? Well, if your event will have a small number of people in attendance, a single close-up show is fine. However, many events have dozens or hundreds or even thousands of people. Under these circumstances, Matt will perform "strolling" magic in which he will move between tables or small groups of people and perform a few minutes of close-up magic for each group. Strolling magic is appropriate for nearly any event, including corporate or office parties, birthday parties, cocktail parties, anniversaries, fundraisers, restaurant shows, and receptions.
