Timing: a practical workshop for magicians - with Jez Rose

Timing - " the difference between good and sensational ". - A Practical workshop for Magicians

Timing……as they say, is everything.  3 seconds can change a reaction.  10 seconds can change the amount they remember.  And knowing when to hold back, pause, stop, continue, and release can change your entire reputation.  In this fun, interactive workshop you’ll learn the essential principles of timing that take any performance - and performer - from good to sensational.  We’ll look at techniques for performers and for performance; for reveals, entrances, magical moments, props, delivery and more.  

About Jez Rose

Renowned for his eye for detail, Jez Rose is an associate Member of the Inner Magic Circle with Silver Star and performer and magical advisor for award-winning global brand campaigns. 

Also known for his stage character, The Unusualist, a master mentalist, and collector of curious effects. With charismatic wit that's kooky, sassy and akin to if Dame Edna and John Cleese had a son with a magic wand, he has delighted and mystified guests at private parties, member’s clubs, and in his sell-out cabaret show in London’s West End, for almost 20 years.
