Interactive, Engaging, Magic
Inviting Dazzling Dan to visit your school is a fun way to mentally stimulate and challenge students thoughts about the world around them. Encourage your students to think outside the square!
Together with his wife Lisa (a qualified and busy teacher) Dazzling Dan launched MAGIC CONNECTIONS, a magic business that produces smart and engaging magic for educational settings, including magic for themed class activities “Entertainment”, “Celebration”, “Circus”. Over 25 years Dazzling Dan has both performed and taught magic at primary schools across Victoria, as part of special incursions including Book Week, Special people day, Camp experiences, Late Stays, Student Dinners, 100 Days of Prep, Last week of term reward activities, Open Days & Centenary Celebrations.
We continue to adapt as the learning environment changes, and during the pandemic we delivered high quality magic shows and workshops online due to restrictions. We have a professional streaming studio ready to engage, entertain and inspire your students if you would like to engage with Dazzling Dan from inter-state or internationally.

MAGIC WORKSHOP
Following the magic show Dazzling Dan can conduct magic workshops.
Students construct and learn how to perform their very own magic trick to take home. Workshops are 45mins in length and designed for a maximum of 30 students (but more students can be added). All materials provided!
Dazzling Dan’s magic shows and workshops have been developed in collaboration with an experienced primary school teacher.
MAGIC WANDS
Magic Wands are an optional extra and a great way memento for the students. These can be distributed after the magic show, or provided to the teachers to give out at the end of the day. Dan can also teach the children a magic trick to perform with their magic wand.
ROVING MAGIC
Close-up Illusion is where Dan roves among the students and performs magic right under their nose! Coins vanish and playing cards change in their hands! This presentation is a great way to spread Dan’s magical entertainment throughout a fair or open day, or during an event where many activities are happening at once (student led carnival or circus). You can also schedule Dazzling Dan perform a combination of Roving Magic and Magic Show(s) throughout the day.
