Bio

After falling in love with the art of magic nearly 15 years ago, ever since, I've had the hunger to delve deeper into this amazing art form. I first started out when I found myself in a dire situation. Alone, in an empty apartment and nothing to keep my mind occupied. I tuned the TV to Channel 4 and saw David Blaine in one of his street magic specials. On the intro, he performed what would be the first card sleight I'd ever learn. Once i saw it, I HAD to find out the mechanics of it. Don't get me wrong, I was awe struck by the effect, but for me, the inner workings were far more fascinating. I researched on where i could learn such effects and spent the next 2-3 months perfecting that ONE piece of magic which got me hooked. Fast forward to present day. I am regarded among my peers to be one of the best sleight of hand card artists in the UK and have seen my career grow from strength to strength each year. Recently I was asked to be a magic and cardistry adviser on the hit Hollywood film "Now You See Me 2", (see:https://www.imdb.com/name/nm9931103/) instructing the cast on how to perform tricks and stunts with playing cards.I am a regular performer at the London Cabaret Club, as well has having performed for companies such as the BBC, ITV, HSBC and many more. I have no doubt that my career will continue to surprise me and take me places I never though possible.

Year after year

We have had Ric perform at our yearly company event for the past 4 years now. We won't hire anyone else. He never fails to astound us all. Every year he gets better and better, new tricks, new laughs and new memories for myself and my staff. He's a constant talking point all year round and we sincerely look forward to seeing him again. He's already booked for our 2019 and 2020 parties. One of the nicest people I've met and has a natural talent for magic... although he'll tell you he doesn't..... "just the ability to persist and learn." A person this good has to be born with it. Thank you again... see you soon. Heather Judd

Funny, quick witted and really felt like part of our party. He tirelessly got around all of our guests. We to this day still talk about him. I will be booking him again in the very near future. 100% recommended.
