Séamus Hanratty rejoins Leprechaun list

Thank you to Séamus Hanratty who once again has supported what we do here by throwing a few sheckles in our tip jar.  Séamus, it must be said, is a massive support not only to this site but to Irish magic in general.  Tanks for everything Seamus.

Late Late Toy Show Magic

The Late Late Toy Show, aired last Friday was crammed full of magic.  In the opening number Shrek was magically transformed in to host Ryan Tubridy.  This sub-trunk esque piece was devised especially for the show by Pat Fallon.  Pat was helped with the design and build by none other then Séamus Hanratty who custom fabricated the hoop for the illusion.  In talking with Pat he had nothing but praise for the RTÉ star telling us "Ryan had a lot of work to do to make this look right.  And fair play to him, he was an absolute pro, worked really hard and devoted the time & attention needed to pull this off."  You can catch the transformation, right at the top of the show, on the RTÉ Player here for the next 15 days.

While there skip along to the 23 minute mark where you will catch 11 year old Neassa Last from Wexford magicing with Ryan.  She demonstrates, better then some I have seen in magic clubs, the latest Marvin's Magic set aimed specifically at girls.

Thanks Séamus
