Paul Vigil Will Blow You Away at IMX 2011
September 1st, 2010 - Magic Convention Guide
Paul Vigil will join the line-up at IMX 2011. When Vigil appears, magical things really do begin to happen in his wake. Mysterious things capture the imagination and rupture the skeptical adult heart. The astonishment he creates feels as wordless and giddy and excitingly foreign as a feeling of first love. This is magic in lavish abundance. This is the world of Paul Vigil
His magical artistry is raw and potent – elegantly constructed, perfectly scripted and flawlessly executed. You will be fooled, badly, even when you know what’s coming next. More than that, Paul’s magic leaves you open and wounded, but in a good way – like you’re better for having experienced what many swear to be “real magic.”
Vigil is a rare breed of magician. He’s a true believer in magic – as an art form, poetic device and creative living exercise. Magic isn’t just a career or a calling for him. It is nothing less than a way of life whose fruits can be shared and enjoyed with others. In his hands, magic sleights are heavenly meditations. They are joyous ceremonies of creation.
To Paul and those who deeply feel the effects of his work, magic is not a puzzle to solve. It is a state of being to embrace. Vigil adheres to the idea of creating magical moments that last for years or even a lifetime. Read the rest of this entry »

International star Romany - Diva of Magic - will close the evening gala show at the WMA One Day Convention on Sunday 3rd April 2011 with her spectacular stage act. Strongly influenced by 1950s Hollywood and the stars of burlesque, Romany is famous for her fabulous costumes, diamonds and feathers, as well as her highly accomplished magic skills. Time Out described her as “a flamboyant hybrid of Bette Midler and Mary Poppins… a fascinating razzle-dazzle mix of magic, original comedy and intelligent glamour”. Romany was honoured by the Magic Circle in 2009 when she became a Member of the Inner Magic Circle with Gold Star for performance.
David Ben makes his first European Magic Convention appearance at the International Magic Convention at The Mermaid Theatre from November 26th to 28th 2010.
