ADDRESS PLEASE NOTE : New address starting in APRIL so email prior to posting anything .

Since our first cover story on Léa Kyle in November 2020 we have seen her become an international superstar with performances on America ' s Got Talent and shows like Ellen in the USA . She has elevated magic and quick-change with incredible performances with techniques we have never seen before . It is great to look back at artists and see how far they have come in a short time through hard work and dedication to their craft . Connie Boyd finds out what Léa has been up to since her first appearance in VANISH .

One of my objectives when starting VANISH was to introduce magicians to other artists outside of magic . Ben Robinson introduces us to Claire Thomas who describes her as , " Combat photographer , adventurer , Claire Thomas embodies the will to succeed and has now risen to the top of her profession . Her team . Her rules . Wondrous ." There is a lot of parallel between what Claire does and a professional magician .

VANISH MAGIC MAGAZINE has teamed up with The Magical Mystery Show ! to offer a unique event in Hawaii . We are in the early planning stages , and if you would like to get updates with more information as it comes in then email : editor @ vanishmagazine . com

There is a lot of great magic in this issue from close-up to stand-up . If you would like to contribute to the trick section of VANISH , we would love to hear from you . We welcome contributions on all types of magic so drop us a line to get your routines published .

Wishing you all a wonderful month . Owards and Upwards

Paul Romhany Editor-in-Chief VANISH MAGIC MAGAZINE
