For any event in Hampshire he is a local magician being based in the New Forest so you do not need to worry about travel expenses. Chances are Roger has performed at your venue before and knows the hotel or the restaurant. Sometimes known as a close hand magician you will literally see magic performed inches from your eyes.

Please allow one magician per 150 guests for a 2 hour performance.
We used Roger to provide entertainment around the tables during our Department Christmas Party. I would have to say he is definitely one of the finest Christmas Party Magicians in Hampshire! Our event was held on the day of the very heavy snow and I was concerned that Roger might not be able to get to us. However, despite grim road conditions, he was professional and didn’t let us down.
Everyone was amazed by his magic and thoroughly enjoyed watching his tricks (and trying to work out how he did it).
I would have no hesitation in booking him again if we had the requirement at another function and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a magician.
