“If James Bond was a magician, Alan Rorrison would be Q!” – Paul Wilson
Alan Rorrison stands out as one of the UK’s most innovative magicians. With numerous sold-out World Tours, television appearances, and consultancy roles for stars like Dynamo and Troy, he has established himself as a leading figure in the magic community. His performances at the Magic Castle in Hollywood and the Magic Circle in London showcase his unique approach to magic.
Alan’s style is refreshingly modern, utilizing everyday objects such as keys, coins, and pens to create magic that feels genuine and spontaneous. His latest project, Digits Of Deception, dives deep into a collection of fun and engaging routines that are nothing short of magical. Each routine could stand alone as a trick, but Alan has combined them into a thrilling two-hour experience. He also teaches you how to create the necessary gimmicks from common items, avoiding the high costs of pre-made props.
Featured routines include:
- RORY’S RISE – Alan’s clever twist on the classic ‘Raise Rise’ by Ray Kosby. A signed card seemingly vanishes from the deck and reappears at the top, all made possible with a simple, ingenious gimmick.
- KEY THING – A borrowed ring and key create an impossible illusion as the key passes through the ring. This easy-to-perform trick looks like pure magic.
- FRIES WITH THAT – Experience the cleanest McDonald’s Aces routine. Four Aces vanish from their packets only to reappear together, then disappear again, leaving spectators astonished.
- BUD’S BOTTLE – An impromptu signed coin-in-bottle effect using borrowed items, showcasing true class in magic.
- STATIC – A selected card defies gravity, popping off the deck and sticking to your fingers. This visual trick can be performed impromptu, with a gimmick that can be made on the spot.
- SHARPIE BEND – Watch as a Sharpie visibly bends at a right angle, then is handed out for examination, thanks to a simple at-home gimmick.
- ACES OUT – A self-working mentalism effect where a chosen Ace mysteriously disappears, only to be found face up in a spread of blank cards.
- BE SAFE – A lighter with a ‘NO UNDER 18’s’ sticker becomes the center of attention as Alan demonstrates how to remove and then magically reattach the sticker in front of the audience.
