Paul arrived on time and quickly “got to work” with assembled guests, table by table. He has a very engaging style and his illusions were amazing. All of our guests including myself were impressed an amazed with his close up magic. One of our guests intend to book Paul for a future event she is organising.. I have already sent an email of thanks to Paul.

Magic is definitely the word, the man and therefor the event!
The guests were mistified and well entertained.
This guy does the impossible and makes it look easy.
Any social or corporate event would benefit from Paul Dawson's riveting performance.

Hi, thanks for your interest in The Mystery Room, a unique way to thrill your guests! Everyone will be given tickets for a specific time-slot in a secluded area where a small group at a time will experience an eerie 20 minutes they will never forget. Intricate gambling cons, impossible illusions and freaky physical stunts are just some of the things that await in the mystery room. When they leave they are given strict instructions not to divulge anything they have just witnessed and to take their experience to the grave… or at least wait until everyone’s seen the show!

Do you do open-air acts?
Yes

Close up (table hopping or mix and mingle), cabaret or stage. All performances are suitable for families or adults.
Will your magic suit my event?
I have experience performing at a wide variety of events so whatever your event I'm sure we will be able to come up with something suitable.
How many people will you perform for?
Any amount but the performance type and length will depend upon the number of people.
