Michael Vincent There are very few magicians who posses the magical combination of superlative sleight of hand and great theatrical presentation, Michael Vincent is one of the chosen few.Over the last twenty years, Michael has earned the enviable reputation of being among the top elite of magicians and sleight of hand artist in the world.
His sublime magic has been featured at numerous venues around the world for top corporations and international celebrities. He would be the first to admit that great technique counts for nothing if it not supported by a meaningful presentation.“I believe that great sleight of hand magic combined with a good plot and presentation can make all the difference between the audiences acknowledging that the y have experienced some thing extraordinary.”It is this simple philosophy has defined Michael’s place in the history of magic.
His magic is a tribute to the wonderful artist who inspired him as a youngster. Magicians who were his mentors; Alan Alan, Harry Lorayne, Cy Endfield (Director of the Movie ZULU), TonySlydini, Derek Dingle, Darwin Ortiz, Larry Jennings and Michael Skinner. Michael was fortunate to meet his heroes and to study the of magic with them. Part of Michael’s on going legacy is to continue the chain of excellence these great master passed on to him.From being a small boy watching David Nixon on TV, to entertaining Hollywood stars at The Magic Castle in California, Michael has come a very long way.
His dream was simple: to become the very best at his chosen craft, and bring world-class magic within the reach of everyone. Now the high standards that he set for himself, has audiences catching their breath. They see it, but they don't believe it.
Never ridiculing or humiliating, Michael treats his audience with the utmost courtesy and respect. Once using magic as a means to overcome his own shyness, Michael now utilises his art to draw his audience into a world of wonder and enchantment.His skill at breaking the ice at functions, making people relax and interact, a good time is had by all."I'm lucky to have the greatest job in the world" says Michael. "In return for the warmth that people generate towards me, as I watch them bond with 'the moment' and each other, I get to give every one of them a happy memory to treasure for the rest of their lives.They 'touch' me with their applause, and I 'touch' them with my art".

To comment on the speaker -or a whole presentation- however negatively is one thing(perfectly acceptable in my humble opinion). To criticize the audience's enjoyment of it putting oneself on a pedestal from which one is observing(and finding amusing) the rest of us mortals apparently trying to seem profound and sometimes succeeding is another thing entirely!Sorry Ed I couldn't just let this pass! I don't know whether you meant to take on a superior tone or it just came out that way..but unless I have misunderstood (please correct me if so) I think we are supposed to judge the presentation and not the audience!

Like Ed, I felt that Michael was an extremely personable chap. He was enjoyable to listen to and to watch. I almost wished he'd just done the magic though. For me it seemed a bit like preaching to the converted. I thought most of us of us are already trying to do that. I think the real magic came when people had to look up from their mobiles and say 'Hello' to the person next to them...shock, horror at a Meet Up!
I did enjoy the evening though.

Very enjoyable, apologies for the delay in providing feedback! Michael has done what I hope certainly aspire to do..take my interest, passion, develop it, overcome my (many!) limitations to be able to share it and make a small difference to the world. In Michael's case he is at the very top of his game and wins my respect for his dedication to his craft / art. In this regard, Michael is an inspiration to me. I thought he was generous to share this particular message and I left inspired and encouraged to believe it myself a little bit more. All I spoke to enjoyed it - for me it was a rally call to step up and do your thing - your magic, and in this I think Michael certainly gave me a memorable message and evening.
Thank you Matt and Michael.
