This is a combination of all Colin’s other skills and he is the only South African performer ... in fact, one of only a select few in the world ... to have created a commercial, magical performing character. Colin's creation,  Mr Barnaby Smythe, is a whacky business man who happens to stumble into the function. Living in a world of his own, it soon becomes apparent that he is unusually accident-prone ... and out of control

He finds that, at every turn, strange and comical situations arise around him and he tries to deal with them as best as he can:

.......... He cleans his glasses to find they have no lenses........ There is something in his eye, it turns out to be a sponge ball which very quickly vanishes from his hands no sooner has he spied it. .......The ball  reappears under somebody’s elbow across the room ........ he tries to light a cigarette only to have the lighter disappear in a bright flash of flame........ The cigarette breaks, restores and there is general mayhem as the wallet now bursts into flames. 

All the while the crowd becomes more and more mesmerised by his actions and during a trade show he will slowly move back to your stand for them to congregate and be sold on whatever product you have to offer. Sometimes the product might be incorporated into Colin's act and the audience is entertained and educated at the same time.

This performance can be a short or sustained over a longer period. It can be adapted to a conference room or as a massive production for 3000 delegates.

His success has spread and he was recently recognized in the top American Magician Publication, The Magic Magazine.

Colin is very proud to have been part of a massive Conference for Microsoft Tech ED which involved a very big Circus Soleil type production with 40 artists. Colin and his Character Barnaby appeared throughout the show.
