Risto Leppänen - Magicomedian
Award winning combination of magic, mind reading and comedy.
Magical entertainment solution that makes your event the success it deserves to be
Risto Leppänen developed a passion for magic at the tender age of 6 after seeing a magician perform in a children`s hospital. Hobby slowly turned into a full-time profession and now, over 20 years later, Risto is one of the most sought-after magicians working in Finland.
He provides entertainment for companies, TV and private clients including members of parliament and NHL Stanley Cup winning players. In his performances, Risto combines magic, mind reading and comedy, performed in an enthusiastic and quick-witted manner. Risto has been praised by the public and other artists alike for his stage presence and character, which through self-deprecating humour utilizes his unique physical appearance.
Besides his busy performing schedule, Risto gives consultancy lessons on performing, writes for magazines and serves as a board member for the Finnish Magicians Association and the Finnish Artist Association.
He has been awarded with Finnish Championships in all three categories: Stage magic (2011), Close-up magic (2009) and Restaurant magic (2007). His refreshing mix of magic and comedy is guaranteed to bring laughter and astonishment to your event.
We have three different programmes to offer:
Risto Leppänen Magicomedy Show
Magic, humour and audience participation. Risto`s Stand-up magic act lasts for 15-35 minutes. This act can be presented to an audience of dozens or hundreds English-speaking guests. Stand-up magic is particularly appropriate for large parties and banquets.
Close-up Magic
Truly flexible option suited for almost any event. Risto can perform from table to table or mix and mingle with your guests at cocktail parties. Everything happens right under the noses of participants and sometimes even in their own hands. Close-up magic is an ideal way to break the ice and bring people together in shared laughter and surprise.
Close-up / Stand-up Combination
The best result is achieved by first warming up the audience with some Close-up magic. The magical evening is then brought to a climax with magic on the stage.
