Hailing from a family with a history in magic, it seems inevi- table that Alexander May would become involved in the art of magic. He has been ‘performing’ since he was in primary school. His first real performances was at high school, when he started featuring at various school functions, such as fund-raisers, award evenings etc.

Now, with more than 14 years of performing experience, his success stems from the fact that he does not want the audience to just see something – he wants them to have an unforgettable experience.

|
He has done three one-man stage productions - One Wand Wonder in 2003, Terms & Conditions Apply in 2005, and MAGIC:ONE in 2007. In June 2009, he teamed up with Glen- dini, an escape artist, creating a show called ‘Maximum Magic’. His main work is on the corporate events scene, at dinners, functions, road-shows etc.

Always having a keen interest in the inner workings of the mind and its unknown abilities, Alexander has studied and have become involved in memory training and mnemonic techniques. Some of his work have also been published for the magic community.

When he is not busy performing, Alexander spends his time writing, travelling and involved in the allied arts. In January 2011 he attended the Gala Awards Ceremony of the 35th International Circus Festival in Monte Carlo, hosted by H.S.H. Princess Stephanie of Monaco.

Because his aim is to entertain, and not just to do magic, his performances are nothing like the ‘normal’ magic show. He doesn’t want the audience to just see something, he wants them to have an experience. He does not tell jokes, he literally blends the comedy into the magic, resulting in a very entertaining, professional and politically sensitive presentation.
