Optional add-on  |  Closing act or closing show

Crown the evening.

After the close-up round, the choice is yours: end the evening with a short, precise finale for all guests – or treat yourself and your guests to a full closing show as the crowning finish. Both can be booked as optional extras.

Table Magic Show

closertomagic

Close enough to touch – yet impossible to grasp!

Treat your guests to a truly special magic show in an exclusive, intimate setting. At the Table Magic Show “closertomagic”, your guests sit around André. No other form of magic puts you this close – right in the middle of the show. The show runs for 30, 60 or 90 minutes and presents magic in an exclusive, fascinating setting.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

How many guests can André entertain per hour?

Up to 30–50 guests per hour.

How long should we book André for?

Up to 80 guests: from 2 hours; from 80 guests we recommend 3 hours, and from 120 guests 4 hours – or entirely tailored to you. Let’s talk through the details.

Does André need his own table or any set-up?

No – close-up works anywhere: at cocktail tables, at the dinner table, in the lounge. No set-up required.

Can close-up magic be combined with the Stage Show?

Absolutely – the combination is particularly effective: close-up magic at the reception, the Stage Show after dinner.

What technical equipment is needed for close-up magic?

There are no technical requirements. The only important thing is that the group isn’t too large: for up to approx. 80–100 guests, depending on the seating (table size), André can reach all your guests. One set per table takes approx. 5–10 minutes. There may be two sets per table or – depending on the enthusiasm – a longer first set. André adapts spontaneously and sensitively to the flow of your event.

What if there are more guests?

No problem: the sets can be shortened, or you can extend the performance time by an hour. Alternatively, André is happy to bring additional close-up magicians – such as his duo partner for a joint show, or colleagues from Walk Factory GmbH (our ensemble of performers), which counts six of Germany’s best close-up magicians among its ranks. So there is always the right combination for your event.

What is the difference from the Table Magic Show closertomagic?

With close-up magic, André moves from group to group. At closertomagic, your guests sit together around André at the semicircular magic table – an exclusive show for 10–45 guests.

What is the difference between the closing act and the closing show?

The closing act (approx. 12–15 min) is a short, pointed finale: André performs 3–4 routines for all guests at once. The closing show (approx. 25 min) is a bigger finale – more routines, more audience interaction, ideal for upscale gala evenings. Both can be booked as optional extras.

How far in advance should I book André Desery?

As early as possible, of course – we recommend 6–8 weeks in advance. For short-notice requests, simply get in touch – we’ll check availability.
