OK, so you are about to start planning an event for the near future and its imperative that it goes well, your reputation is at risk and you want to ensure you have a successful event that everyone will remember. The fundamental element to get right for any event, is selecting the right entertainer for the evening. As a magician in derby, I can offer you some invaluable advice. The first thing is to get online and search for local entertainment in your area.
The internet can be a minefield so I would recommend that at first you try and stick to local searches online. I would type in something like Magician in Derby or Derby Magician, these types of local searches will help minimise your costs as they won't charge travel fees. Once you find a few local performers have a look to see if they have a decent show reel or some footage of their acts online. Any local performer worth their salt will want to show off their act to as many people as possible and an online reel should be the ideal opportunity for them to do that.
Did you like what you saw on these show reels? If so now is the time to get in contact and enquire about prices. A local Derby Magician should be in the region of 300-500 for a couple of hour's entertainment. Please note this may be significantly higher if you are seeking a cabaret or stand up type of show. Most magicians in Derby base these prices on mix and mingle or meet and greet style bookings. Make sure you enquire about what type of performance you are being priced for.
By now you will have probably got a specific performer in mind to hire for your event. Find out what the booking procedure is, most magicians in derby will have a procedure which will include signing a confirmation form and providing a deposit. Once the deposit is received and the paperwork signed everything will be confirmed. At this point it's a good idea to check in with the performer a few weeks before the event to see if everything is ok and check any last minute changes or info.
On the day of the event, A professional magician in Derby should arrive with plenty of time, dressed appropriately and ready to go. He may introduce himself and request any last minute information. You may want to guide where the derby magician starts his performance, perhaps a special guest or specific table? This will of course depend on the type of event you have organised but it's something to consider. With all the planning you have been doing, remember to try and witness the parts of the performance yourself, you deserve it.
