My mother celebrated her 40th birthday last month and since I knew she was a huge fan of Derren Brown I decided to surprise her by hiring a similar mind magician act. Not having ever booked entertainment before I searched the internet and found quite a choice of magicians but very few who specialised in mind trickery like Derren Brown. I eventually hired a party magician and was not disappointed with my choice. He effortlessly entertained and read the minds of all the 100 guests and my mother was absolutely chuffed and surprised.
