Mastery of any worthwhile endeavor calls
for the kind of passion that can sustain long practice. Anthony Lindan
should know. His apprenticeship in the demanding art of the magician
began at the age of eight when he received the gift of a magic kit. Over
the years, he developed and maintained an exclusive corporate clientele
as a professional magician.
What does it
mean to be a master magician?
For Anthony Lindan, it means having the confidence
that comes with consummate skill, 30 years' experience
and above all, passion! Anthony has participated in
hundreds of trade shows and corporate events throughout
North America.
Today, as Anthony Lindan practices a specialized
brand of marketing wizardry on behalf of an impressive array of corporate
clients -- industry leaders who have come to believe in the power of
magic to: attract and hold attention at a trade show booth or hospitality
suite; educate and motivate customers; motivate staff or a sales team
at sales meetings, training events and product launches; entertain participants
at conventions, conferences and corporate events and... have a whole
lot of fun in the process.
Stage Show:
Anthony Lindan's Presents of Mind is a 30-40 minute, cabaret style, stage magic
show designed for an audience of 25-500 people. With its focus on audience
participation,
it's ideal for banquets, award ceremonies, sales meetings, product launches,
conventions and any event where people gather to have a good time! It's a
fast-moving show and Lindan gets the audience into the act right from the
start (pick a card, any card). Anthony Lindan turns otherwise perfectly normal
people into human slot machines (lots of spinning, silliness and laughter);
gets
the boss into the act; borrows money, makes it disappear and takes the audience
on a complex series of misadventures to get it back.
Before you know
it, it's time for the grand finale --
The hilariously frustrating Houdini-style 'Shackle Escape'. Houdini was never
like this!
Two volunteers securely shackle Lindan's hands behind his back and conceal
him as he attempts to escape. In an artfully artless routine worthy of the
great silent movie comedians, Lindan wages an impossible battle with his jacket,
the shackles, the hapless volunteers holding up the curtain and the audience.
Without giving too much away, we can say that
he is ultimately successful, the show is over all too soon and as the
event manager responsible for booking entertainment, you're looking very
good indeed.
Strolling Magic
Magic is Afoot' is a form of just-for-fun 'Pure Entertainment'.
Anthony Lindan strolls from location to location or table to table
involving members
of the audience in close-up, sleight-of-hand magic. Given his chameleon
quality, it's not always easy to pick Lindan out of the crowd but you
can track his progress through the room by following the sounds of
amazement and laughter. 'Magic is Afoot' is an intimate, involving
style of show
that's ideal for after dinner shows, awards dinners and corporate hospitality
suites.
Magic has a universal appeal that cuts
across demographic boundaries. It speaks to that part of each of us that
retains a sense of wonder no matter how young, old or sophisticated we
may be.
