Max Somerset
Celebrity Magician / Unusualist for hire
Tumble down the rabbit hole and step through the looking glass... into the electrifying, eccentric, and entertaining world of me, Maximillian Somerset – magician and unusualist.
Forget yet another boring card trick from a man in a hat and a bad suit. More than magic, I give you unusualism – magic free from the shackles of reason and convention. Imagine experiencing real entertainment packed with the thrill of the inexplicable and brain-baffling impossibleness. I may wear my hat but I promise only good suits and no boring card tricks.
To paraphrase Salvador Dali:
"Unusualism destroys the shackles limiting our vision"
I'd say "expect the unexpected" but you'd probably be expecting that. Instead I can guarantee you an intriguing mix of high energy theatrics and madcap moments, enthralling mystery and comedy genius; all with enough "How did he do that" moments to boggle the most boggle-proof of minds.
From audience-grabbing TV performances and stage shows to memorable wedding magic, confounding close-up magic to mesmerising mentalism... parlours or parties, corporate events or children's parties – I'm Max Somerset: versatile, refreshingly unusual and truly entertaining: It's a different kind of magic
Performing for you….
Whether you're looking for a close-up magician to deliver awe-inducing party entertainment or a wedding magician your guests will remember... it costs less than you'd think to hire the best magician in the UK.
Haven't I seen you somewhere before?
Quite possibly… I've had my own Sky One show, but perhaps I'm best known for the BBC's The Sorcerer's Apprentice?
How many magicians for hire have confounded, to the point of swearing, the unflappable genius that is Stephen Fry? Check out my TV magic and showreel.
Maximilian Somerset, Magician and Unusualist
I believe in magic. Not the kind that'd have me dancing naked around Stonehenge or drawing pentagrams in blood on the floor... but in the ability to amaze, enthral and truly entertain.
