Stand-Up magic is a kind of show where the performer occupies centre stage, either in a legitimate theatre, or in a function room, or on a cabaret floor, to perform his act. The act has the characteristic to be visible from distance and also gives the audience a feeling of safety, of not being too much involved in the magician's activity.

Marco's show can either be a silent one, which does not involve any spectator's participation and is particularly suited for children's parties, retirement houses and any sort of event where the involvement of the audience is not seeked by the organization. Alternatively, a different show may be performed while talking to the audience, and involving them.

The latter is particularly suited for longer performances (40-50 minutes) and in all situations where the audience can still be close to the performer. For better visibility, a small raised stage would be beneficial, as well as not having empty floor (like a dance floor) between the magician and the audience.

This sort of show involves different types of magic, from classic card mysteries to apparent mind reading (which nowadays is called "mind control"), to lighter elements which should amuse, if not amaze, your audience.

This kind of performance can be booked together with a close-up one, for events like weddings, dinner-dance, or commercial presentations. In this case, the price will be particularly interesting.
