About
Mr Marmalade Magic is a magician for hire in Malvern East, VIC.
The Wizard of Whimsy. Australia's King of Cards. Formerly The Man with the Moustache. Mr Marmalade has collected a few names over two decades of performing, and the magic itself is elegant and irreverent at the same time, which is a harder trick than most of what's in the act. He works from close-up miracles right through to large stage illusions. Roving in one-hour blocks, informal sit-down shows of 30 to 45 minutes for up to 40 people, stage and emcee work anywhere from five to 55 minutes, and a 45-minute workshop teaching sleight of hand with objects already lying around the house. Based in Melbourne. He's self-sufficient on set-up, which leaves you free to worry about everything else.
Watch
The show
Two decades of performing behind it, and the skill level is the point. Close-up work where the trick happens in your own hands, through to full stage illusions. He's easy company, which matters more than people expect with a magician at a party, and the style is elegant and a bit cheeky at the same time. Guests tend to keep talking about it afterwards.
On the day
It depends entirely on which show you've booked, but for nearly any event his needs are small. He's self-sufficient by choice and doesn't want to be high maintenance about it, so you get to spend your time on everything else that's going on.
Performance options
Four ways to have him. Close-up roving in one-hour blocks, moving between guests. An informal sit-down show of 30 to 45 minutes, which suits up to about 40 people. Stage and emcee work in blocks anywhere from five minutes to 55, cut to fit the run sheet. And a 45-minute magic workshop teaching sleight of hand using objects you already have at home.
