René specialises in close-up or walk-around magic. This means that everything he does is performed up close to the spectators, sometimes even in their hands. All the props (cards, banknotes, elastic bands, etc.) are stored in his pockets as he walks around greeting guests with incredible magic. This form of entertainment is good for 'breaking the ice' at formal cocktail parties and weddings where the guests do not necessarily know each other. Anything can happen: balls multiply in the spectators' hands, signed cards are mysteriously found stuck to the ceiling, signed banknotes are found inside a previously examined kiwi and all sorts of other funny things happen while the guests stand and watch in amazement.

As a strolling close-up magician, René performs for groups of guests standing in small groups or sitting at tables. Individuals actively participate and most of the time the magic happens right under their noses. The intimate setting assures that the illusions are even stronger and no one can say it was all done with camera tricks.

Close-up magic is ideally suited to larger venues without a stage or for events held in a series of adjoining rooms. These could be cocktail parties and receptions. René can interrupt his performance at any time if there are speeches, etc. He can perform to about 40 people per hour in this way.
