Penguin Live Online LecturesGeoff WilliamsJuly, 21st 2013Product DescriptionWho is he?A three-time “Magician of the Year” through the International Brotherhood of Magicians, Geoff is a full-time professional entertainer who has won over two dozen comedy and magic awards over his 28-year career. He’s performed and lectured in over 17 countries and throughout most of the U.S., has written for “The Late Show with David Letterman” and is a frequent performer at the world-famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. Geoff adds a hilarious, astounding and MEMORABLE experience to any events he performs at. He offers cutting-edge sleight of hand illusions mixed with an offbeat, zany sense of humor. His shows are filled with unforgettable illusions and stunts. Geoff’s magic shows are high energy, family-friendly and suitable for all ages (no off-color material). With lots of audience interaction, this act plays very big without having to rely on bulky, “suspicious-looking box” tricks Geoff is probably best known for his “I Hate David Copperfield’ trick which was on Penguin Magic’s online Top Ten list for almost a year! Geoff also specializes in close-up, strolling illusions (some which happen right in the spectators’ hands).
