STROLLING CLOSE-UP MAGIC
Elliott performs close-up minor miracles of magic
throughout the room interacting with your guests during
a reception or information get-together. The magic
happens mere inches before their eyes and sometimes
right in their hands ... they won’t believe their
eyes! This works great as an 'ice-breaker' and adds a
personal touch that raises the level of energy in the
room. It stirs up lots of laughs and creates a pleasant
atmosphere for everyone! No mirrors or trap-doors used,
so how does he do this?
"Elliott, we had SUCH a great time with you last night. My
members really loved your performance and energy! I still can’t
wrap my head around the magic you presented us with. We will
100% be having you at more events at our Club! You provided a
great performance for kids and adults alike and everyone was
amazed by you … and still are! Thank you so much for coming and
showing us how magical life can be! Keep doing what you do
because you are awesome!"
~ C. Blakeman, Member Experience Manager, Tampa Palm Golf &
Country Club, Tampa, FL
TRADE SHOW MAGIC
Elliott performs close-up magic at your Trade Show booth
entertaining and interacting with attendees. With Elliott's
dynamic talent coupled with his professional experience and
understanding of trade shows, he is able to draw attendees to
your booth and capture their attention. The magic gathers a
crowd of people creating awareness of your company name, product
or service. This format of magic provides the opportunity for
your staff to open lines of communication with attendees that
may lead to relationship building and possibly sales.
"I have hired Elliott smith over many years for different
business and corporate events. For Trade Shows, Elliott is able
to weave a corporate message into his magic and draw prospects
into the booth and keep them engaged and entertained while still
informing them about our company and product. He helps drive new
business at shows where sometimes it’s hard to get people to
stop at your booth. The more technical types enjoy trying to
work out how he does it, and those less technical are just
amazed. There seems to be no event that doesn’t benefit from
having Elliott bring his humor and magic to it!”

Events Manager, Kinaxis

working with Elliott Smith in Clearwater, Florida. He was the
opening act for our band and he did an amazing job. Elliott
controlled the audience very well and his magic illusions were
both amusing and entertaining. I would highly recommend Elliott
