Gary Schiffman is an award-winning close-up magician and mind reader based in London and Hertfordshire.
Performing TV-style close-up magic and mentalism, Gary is regarded as one of the UK’s top magicians. He has been performing magic for over two decades and has entertained numerous celebrities—including Bruce Willis, Ryan Giggs, and Geri Halliwell—as well as some of the world’s biggest corporate clients, such as Porsche, Virgin Racing, GlaxoSmithKline, Just Eat, and British Petroleum.
Performing just inches away from his audience, there are no camera tricks, assistants, or stooges—just the pure skill of an elite illusionist. Gary has been performing magic for over 20 years and can regularly be seen at Watford FC, where he serves as their resident matchday hospitality magician.
In 2016, Gary auditioned for Britain’s Got Talent in front of Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, David Walliams, and Alesha Dixon, receiving four “yeses” from the judges to progress to the next round. Gary is also a proud member of Equity and the world-renowned Magic Circle. His down-to-earth, easygoing personality combined with his incredible sleight of hand makes him the perfect fit for any event or audience.
