It may sound odd, but the way you arrange the room with chairs for a magic/comedy show makes so much difference to the success of the show. There’s a reason that theatre’s have chairs fixed in that way as opposed to scattering them around the room.

Soft play can be amazing fun for young children. Check online reviews to check soft play centres that have friendly, helpful staff, parking, and most importantly, great coffee.
I have entertained over the last 12 years at over 1,500 birthday parties and learned a lot along the way.
At a birthday party with an entertainer magician such as Ritchie Rosson (that’s me!) some parents have an idea that “we need something for the toddlers! Let’s hire some soft play.”) It’s a terrible idea. I had two of my birthday parties ruined by soft play being hired and it being thrown around the room and kids slamming each other into it.
Less is more! Because I want the children to have the most fun at my parties and my lovely clients to be super happy; as of Autumn 2023 I am no longer offering my entertainment at birthday parties with soft play.
I had great fun editing this video of the amazing magician David Croucher based in Worthing.
A showreel video will get you so much work! Sad that I see so many entertainers/magicians/circus performers with no showreel video for their clients to see or long videos of their entire acts which in the case of magicians like myself who do 30-60 minutes on stage, clients shopping around for entertainment will not sit through such a video and a live show never comes through with the impact it does live so better to pick out parts that are visual and fun in the video format which I have years of experience working with in my work on YouTube and in tv shows.
If you are interested in getting a fun-filled showreel video made, drop me a message here.
How do you get work as a film extra? How much money does a film extra make? Can you work full-time as a supporting artist? I did it for 4 years in London. Here’s my story.
Before I was a magician I worked for 10 years as a contortionist.
It was not something I had planned to do but being an impulsive ADHDer, when I got a text saying “Hey, I’ve booked a skydive. Want to do it with me?” from a lovely lady I know, I said yes, before the reality had sunk in.
The whole experience with North London Skydiving in Cambridgeshire was perfect from start to finish. Friendly welcome, in-depth safety training about how the jump works. I was fitted with a suit and harness and up we went! In a few hours, I was flying out of a plane. Thank you Tim and all the other legends at NLS. Highly recommended.
I’m looking for a venue around Sutton/Epsom/Croydon/Kingston area or nearby to put on magic shows during the holiday times. I did shows before at Woodcote Green Garden Centre in Wallington now become Dobbies. Sorry to brag but the shows went down a storm. We had about 150 people per show and WGGC, would straight away re book me and beg me to longer runs as they were so popular. I do oa lot of birthday party shows at weekends and some bigger events but want to put on more shows an the school holidays are perfect.
One of the best experiences of my life. Highly recommend North London Skydiving Centre in Cambridge.
