“Jon Allen is the leading light in the Magic World & his amazing effects has baffled me!”- Derren Brown



Jon Allen is one of the very few professional close-up magicians in the U.K. who has made an impact in the world of magic as well as corporate & private events around the world. Many magicians are “Award Winning,” but ask what the awards are & it may well not sound as impressive! He is England’s only “World IBM Close-Up Magic Champion,” a recipient of The Magic Circle’s “Close-Up Magician of the Year,” & is a prestigious Gold Star Member of the Inner Magic Circle which is an invitation only from the President. His TV work includes: Penn & Teller Fool Us, Panorama, MTV Awards, RI:SE, Big Breakfast, Hidden World of London, London Today, Mrs. Cohen’s Money, XChange & numerous TV commercials.

Jon creates astonishment, excitement & powerful memories. All magicians do tricks, but impact, reactions & experience they produce vary immensely & this is where Jon excels! He avoids the “Just stay there & watch what I can do!” type of performance that is ultimately non-rewarding to the audience. Instead, he concentrates on strong effects, natural presentations & a lightning-fast wit that enables him to accomplish real miracles for real audiences! Not only is he a working pro, but he is also the creator of many effects used by top magicians, too. He is well-known for his effects: “Double Back,” “Flexion,” “The Pain Game,” “The Destination Box,” “Down to One,” “Rule of 3,” “Paragon 3D,” and his universally acclaimed “The Silent Treatment” which was used by Jason Alexander’s (George from Seinfeld) Magic Castle Act winning him Magician of the Year.

Jon’s “Interrobang Lecture” teaches you not just tricks, but you will learn the “what,” “how,” & why” in routining your magic. This can then be applied to any type or style of magic you do. You will learn more tricks to add to your arsenal plus be inspired to make your magic better for your audiences! Some of the effects taught: A multi-phase routine using a pen & a coin…with a surprise finale; A super simple peek; A fantastic finale to any signed card routine, using a move hardly ever used in close-up, The greatest impromptu routine ever that turns a child into a mega-star magician, plus much, much more. He will also explain about using your props for more than just tricks, why you should learn about things for which you have no current interest, why you should break things, why he thinks one of the Classics of Magic is a terrible trick & the one word that will instantly improve your magic & give you a whole new outlook on what you do!

“There is a marvelous elegance & economy to Jon’s work as a performer & as a creator.”-Jay Sankey

“Jon Allen thinks of method, but unlike many he also, blessedly, thinks of more than method.”-David Regal

“I’ve seen a multitude of magicians around the globe & the UK’s Jon Allen is simply the best. He gets it.”-Gregory Wilson
