Before
A short call to understand the room: who's there, what the event is for, and anything worth knowing. Everything else is taken care of.
Christmas party entertainment in London
Leave the room speechless, then talking for weeks.
Close-up mind reading while the drinks are poured, then a short show that brings the whole room together. For office parties, client evenings and end-of-year celebrations across London.

What the evening looks like.
- I
The drinks reception
Group to group and table to table, reading minds while people mingle. It tends to break the ice faster than the bar.
- II
After dinner
A short show for the whole room, with volunteers who come away looking good, and a finale people retell on the way home.
- III
The awards
Running awards on the night? Shane can host them as a mentalist MC, with moments between the categories (£750).
Christmas & end-of-year events
Close the year with something they can’t explain.
Office parties, client evenings and end-of-year celebrations. Weeknights are the quiet secret of the season, so they come at a better rate.

Questions worth asking.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. December Thursdays and Fridays tend to go first. Weeknights from 24 November to 18 December are easier to find, and come at a better rate.
What's in the weeknight package?
90 minutes of close-up and a 15-minute mini show, Monday to Thursday, 24 November to 18 December, for £995.
How does the early-bird offer work?
Book by 31 October and any package is 15% off, for any date up to 18 December. It isn't combined with the weeknight package.
Do you perform across London?
Yes. Anywhere inside the M25 is included, from private dining rooms to full venues. Further afield is fine too, with a simple travel fee agreed up front.
Will anyone be put on the spot?
That's the thing I work hardest to avoid. Volunteers are willing, and the people who join in come away looking good. The fun is in the impossible, not at anyone's expense.
What does it cost on other nights?
Close-up starts at £1,150 for up to two hours, and close-up with a stage show is £1,950. Build an estimate on the site for a guide price in a minute.
