Full-Time Magician | Into It
Chris is a full-time magician, and this is his story.
Magic has always been a part of Chris's life and he started doing it when he was a teenager. He would learn little magic tricks as a way to win money in the playground at school and then to win beers at the pub. As he grew up, he learned that magic tricks can actually teach you some social skills. After a knee injury left Chris stuck at home, he had the opportunity to think seriously about how he could become a full-time magician.
In the past, Chris has had disastrous shows were props have gone missing or magic tricks have gone wrong, but it's all a learning curve.
Chris's proudest moment in his career as a magician is what he is doing right now, connecting with his audience instead of trying only to impress them.
