A SYDNEY MAGICIAN
WHO KEPT THE AWARDS AND THE ESCAPES.

Award-winning magic, mind magic and a live water tank escape, for corporate events and galas across Sydney. This is the magic side of twenty-five years of work. The mind reading has its own page.

The awards

WON IT TWICE.
THEN CAME BACK AS A JUDGE.

Not an internally invented award. Both were presented at the Melbourne Magic Festival, which is the industry judging its own. Phoenix has since sat on the judging panel there himself.

Winner · “Gluttony” (Adelaide Fringe) Award
Melbourne Magic Festival 2014.
Winner · People’s Choice Award
Melbourne Magic Festival 2015.
Since then, a judge at the festival
Invited back to judge the Melbourne Magic Festival, on the panel alongside Cosentino. Winning is competing. Being asked to judge is the industry treating you as the standard.
Sydney Fringe Festival · Judge
Four of the last five years, missing only a year spent performing overseas. The panel judges the whole festival, theatre, comedy, dance and acting, not just magic, which means being asked to assess performance itself rather than one trade.

What the magic side is

ESCAPES, MIND MAGIC AND TELEVISION

Escapology
A locked water tank, performed live on television. It is a stunt, and it is sold as one.
Mind magic
Where the magic and the mentalism meet. Sleights and misdirection in service of an effect that reads as thought rather than trickery.
Television
Australia’s Got Talent, and Prime Video’s Underground Magic in New York, the only Australian to represent the country on it.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Official consultant and trainer for the character Gambit, working with Taylor Kitsch on the card handling. The story.
Worth knowing

MAGICIAN AND MENTALIST ARE NOT THE SAME BOOKING

Both are on offer here, and they suit different nights. A magician performs a prepared effect. A mentalist works with whatever your guests are thinking on the night, with nothing to rehearse for. Most Sydney corporate bookings end up wanting the mentalism, but not all of them. The difference in full, or the mentalist side.

Before you ask

NO HYPNOSIS IN ANY OF THESE SHOWS.
UNLESS YOU’D LIKE THAT.

Nobody goes under and nobody is put on the spot against their will. It is psychological mind reading and composed outcomes. But if comedy stage hypnosis is what you were actually after, that is very much on offer. It is a different show with its own site: sydneyhypnotist.live.

Date, venue and roughly how many guests is enough to start. If this is the wrong call for your night, I will say so.
