Stu Gray - The Gentleman of Cards

Close up card magic, done at conversational distance rather than from a stage. Stu Gray works the room at private functions, home gatherings, weddings and corporate events, moving group to group so no table gets skipped. Cards appear, vanish and change in the guests' own hands, which is a different sort of surprise to watching it happen across a room. It breaks the ice quickly, and at corporate events it gives people something to talk about while they're still working out who everyone is. There's no staging, no lighting rig and no set up: everything he needs is in his pockets, so he can start almost the moment he arrives. Canberra based. Insured, with a current Working with Vulnerable People card.
