Everyone knows that Paul Draper is the epitome of professionalism in magic and mentalism. Before the
COVID crisis, he has been the greatest source I've ever encountered for professional advice, insight
and information. So it's no surprise that as the entire live performance industry must shift to the
new circumstances, Paul is leading the way in forging a path for other mystery performers to follow
as they navigate the possibilities of professional success in a virtual world.
I assumed
there was no hope of finding work as a magician in this challenging time. Paul is living proof that
people—who are craving live entertainment more than ever—are willing to take a bet on virtual
versions of services they can no longer access. I feel renewed hope that there is a path forward for
not only myself but magicians around the world who desperately need not only a revenue stream, but a
creative outlet and the ability to connect with spectators again. Magic doesn't exist without an
audience - follow Paul's advice, and you will find your audience before you know it!
