About Half Daft - the magical clown!


Half Daft the magical clown is widely regarded as the top children’s entertainer in Scotland. His hilarious stand up comedy magic show is well known all over Scotland.

Half Daft’s comedy magic show is non-stop fun and entertainment from start to finish, it's high energy and dynamic and is often compared to an act you would see at the Edinburgh Festival.

His show can also be done in a softer style for very young audiences although Half Daft is equally at home entertaining the adults too!

Half Daft acts as his name suggests, and the kids really get a kick out of seeing a grown man that can't do anything right...
...from opening his suitcase to blowing up a balloon, the kids just crack up laughing.

This is combined with very strong visual magic that the kids see right before their eyes. So on one hand Half Daft's an idiot, but on the other hand he does strong magic tricks that baffle and keep the kids entertained!

For children’s birthday party shows, almost all the magic tricks involve one or more child getting to come up as a helper, and the birthday child is always the centre of attention through the show.

Half Daft uses only normal everyday items that the kids are familiar with such as cards, coins, ropes, spinning plates, silk hankies, juggling balls, balloon modelling, magic wands etc.

Half Daft is also an expert animal balloon artist and often works exclusively making balloon animals in a meet and greet situation.

Half Daft can walk around amongst a large crowd making balloon animals and talking to children and adults.

Half Daft also performs very close up magic and is the only magician doing this type of magic for young children, the kids are literally inches away from the magic and can examine everything afterwards, this is very magical for children and they remember it for a very long time indeed.





So whether you require a children’s entertainer for a small show or an all day event, look no further than Half Daft the Clown, he'll meet all your expectations and deliver more than you thought possible.
