The biggest risk these days for many parties?
Guests hanging around politely and looking at their phones.
As a table and walk around magician, I move among your guests and make amazement happen right in front of them - no stage, no "everyone quiet for a moment." Within minutes, total strangers are laughing together about what they just saw.
I am Teun Rookus, professional table magician and walking magician (close-up / walk-around) with over 10 years of experience. My specialty is close-up magic: magic at centimeters distance, with nothing more than my hands, a few cards and some coins. No big box of tricks, no stage - pure sleight of hand, right in front of your guests.
What makes me different: before I made this my profession, I studied psychology (MSc). You don't hear that during a performance, but you notice it. I can sense when a group needs a joke, when it needs surprise, and when I need to put someone in the spotlight. That's how it lands with everyone in the room - with the management and
the intern, with grandma and the kids.
The effect is invariably the same: guests who would otherwise stick together in fixed groups get talking. The magic is my tool, but the real result is connection and a shared "did you see that?" moment that is talked about for a long time.
You don't have to take it from me that it works:
"We engaged Teun for a group dinner with 250 people. It was a great success and the whole company was big fans and impressed by all the tricks. Definitely highly recommended!!!"
- Jamie Bruinink, Van der Valk Hotel Lelystad - group dinner 250 people (★★★★★ Google)
"Teun was at our company party as table magician. Incredibly fun and especially connecting for the guests among themselves. The reactions of our guests were full of amazement and enthusiasm. Top done!"
- Serge Beukers, company party (★★★★★ Google)
"By walking around while 'ambushing' children as well as adults with good magic tricks, he conjured a big smile on everyone's face. Highly recommended!"
- Emile Petiet, family day (★★★★★ Google)
For which event?
My close-up magic works perfectly as an icebreaker during drinks, the reception, a walking dinner or between courses. Beloved at corporate events, staff parties, networking events, receptions, anniversaries, weddings and family days - from an intimate gathering to a dinner with hundreds of guests. I regularly perform at hotels and hospitality and event venues, so a professional partnership with your venue is a good fit.
What you get from me:
Entertainment that runs itself - you don't have to announce or arrange anything.
Always contact in advance, so it fits seamlessly into your program.
Suitable for indoors and outdoors, from a small group to a full hall.
Performance possible in Dutch, English or Portuguese.

Both kids and adults enjoyed the show to the fullest, arrangements were nicely coordinated and communication was top notch.

A fun act during the anniversary party of the oldest orange society in the Netherlands. We were able to book a few extra hours as a balloon act at the last minute. Thinking along, flexible, did a great job with the kids. Very satisfied!
