Alongside his life in magic, Dean built a career in international business as a Senior Partner at PwC, working with talented executives, managers and professionals across Europe and the Middle East. Equally at home in the boardroom and on stage, he brings an understanding of people, a quick wit and a natural ease with discerning audiences to every performance.

Your guests.
Your setting.
A different kind of evening.
The best starting point is a conversation about your occasion, your audience and the atmosphere you would like to create.
What kind of performance is this?
Mind reading and psychological illusion: an interactive performance built around thoughts, choices and perception, presented as an evening of entertainment and mystery.
Who is it designed for?
Intimate adult audiences, from private hosts and their guests to diners, club members, colleagues and clients.
Could we create an event at our venue?
Yes. A dinner and performance can be developed around your venue and clientele. A single special evening is a natural starting point, with the possibility of further dates.
What should we discuss first?
Your preferred date, location, approximate number of guests and the nature of the occasion. The performance format, timing and room arrangement can then be considered together.
