When organising your Masonic Ladies Night, Festival or White Table there are a lot of variables, and that takes a lot of organising – and I’m guessing that neither you (or your partner) are professional event managers. In fact, I don’t really need to rely on my mind-reading powers to guess that your wife has been delegated to arrange the event herself! 😉
Masonic Magician
Being “on the Square” I am aware at what happens at a Ladies Night or a White Table evening; so I understand the various conventions that may perplex other magicians. (Yes, the lists of toasts; and of course the terminology used.)
Watch the video, which is a montage of a Christmas Masonic Party to celebrate the launch of Berkshire Province’s 2023 Festival.
By booking me for your entertainment I can not only provide you with the knowledge and experience that I have from performing at countless corporate and Christmas parties – but also have that knowledge of attending, performing (and organising my own!) Ladies Nights over the years.
I perform at lots of Ladies Nights and Festivals, particularly in the Masonic Province of Berkshire. However, I am not limited to performing in my own Province and have performed at Ladies night from Hampshire or Northamptonshire. (I had wanted to say from Southampton to Northampton, but the Hampshire one was in Basingstoke).
Some Random Reviews

I recently hired Robert for a corporate event and couldn't have been happier with the experience. His magic tricks were mind-blowing and kept the guests thoroughly entertained. Robert seamlessly interacted with everyone, creating a fun and engaging atmosphere. His charming personality and witty humor added to the enjoyment, making him a true highlight of the event. If you're looking for a unique and interactive way to add excitement to your next corporate event, I highly recommend Robert Bone. He's a true professional who will leave your guests amazed and wanting more! - Alastair C. - 02 Mar 2024

We had Robert to amuse our guests at our multi- generational party on Saturday. We knew he would be good but he was AMAZING. So friendly but always professional. He totally blew our minds with his close up magic. I would highly recommend him for any event. He tailored everything to suit all ages (we had guests ranging in age from 2-90). Thankyou Robert for being such an essential part of our party. We hope to see you again sometime. Best wishes from Trudy, Donna, the Powell crew and all of our guests. - Donna P. - 14 Nov 2023

We hired Rob for a chairty ball and are over the moon with him. He was very competitive on rates, great communication prior, but most importantly his magic was unbelievable. Laughter and shocked cheers were heard around the room all evening and when he came to our table, the tricks did not disappoint. Do not hesitate to hire Rob for any event - JStans1985 - 09 Dec 2023

We first saw Robert at a good friend's wedding where he was their toastmaster too - which was different from what I'd seen before and he was outstanding at both. his mindreading is what still staggers me!! We enjoyed him so much that we booked him for our own wedding just last week. He was sensational. Loads of great feedback from our guests and tons of shocks and wows on the day too. I his website and his videos (though they show his ability) to me do not do him justice so I'll certainly be sharing any images or footage with him once I get any back from our wedding photographers - who were also outstanding so should have some good stuff for me to post here once I get it back from them. Thank you Robert for such a great day !! It truly was our best day ever Kerryn and Max 🙂 - Kerryn A. - 17 Oct 2023

We booked Robert for our works Christmas lunch. We were only gathering in a local pub so had no idea how it would work, but it was such a great experience. Robert put everyone at ease and entertained the many different personalities etc. It really elevated the event. Everyone was amazed by the tricks and the show 😉. All 22 of us would highly recommend him for any gatherings! - Gemma W. - 02 Jan 2024

I hired Robert for a work Christmas party and received nothing but positive reviews regarding his performance after the party. Here is a few: "A great evening was had by all and the magician was truly impressive" "The magic man was incredible – brilliant find. Even though we watched him like a hawk you couldn’t catch him out and his last trick with the drawings/books was amazing!" "The magician was very impressive but still wake at night wondering HOW." Recommend Robert for any weddings/parties/corporate functions and I will deffo be keeping him in mind for future events for sure! - Katy P. - 04 Dec 2023

I booked Robert for the Surrey Ambulance Retirement Association reunion this year. He was very professional, mingling with ease amongst our guests and blowing them away with his skills. Everyone was amazed and were still talking about him and his magic the rest of the weekend. We would love to have you back Robert! - Carol B. - 08 Nov 2023

The entertainment will typical include mix and mingle magic as guests arrive at the drinks reception. This works well as those that don’t know each other, or only typically see each other at the annual Ladies Night, will be able to get involved; and the magic is a fantastic way to spark interaction and conversation.
The close-up magic continues around the dinner tables. Obviously I avoid interupting guests as they are about to eat, work around the tables waiting to be served, or between the courses. I make an effort to work with the staff at the venue to make the meal go smoothly.
After Dinner Cabaret
After the meal I can perform an after-dinner show. This can be from a short 10 minute mind-reading routine, through to a full 45 minute show.
The benefit of a show is that I gather the attention of the room and get all the guests looking in the same direction and focused. Essentially it turns a room of diners into an audience. After entertaining the audience I can hand over the Worshipful Master (or Director of Ceremonies or Toastmaster) who can introduce speeches, toasts and raffles.
This is particularly useful if the WM is not confident, or this is his first time hosting a Ladies Night.
