In June 2023 I I had the absolute privilege and pleasure of hosting a Q&A with the two masterminds of magic, Ryan K Davidson and Colin Cloud in front of a live audience at 18 Candleriggs in Merchant City Glasgow, following their preview show Wonder in Progress to talk about their inspirations, career highlights to date and the creativity and imagination behind producing heir unforgettable shows!
Discovering magic at the age of 18 from a former con-artist he met on holiday, magician Ryan K Davidson has gone on to painstakingly craft a number of spectacular productions which incorporate all aspects of performance art to create a unique experience. From a year-long sell-out residency at The Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow to his outstanding theatre productions, Ryan continues to astound audiences with his creativity and mind blowing sorcery.

Coined ‘The Real Life Sherlock Holmes’, from the Edinburgh Fringe to his current residency in The Mirage Resort and Casino, Las Vegas, Colin Cloud has written and performed his incredible shows wowing audiences around the world for over 20 years. Appearing on both Britain’s Got Talent and America’s Got Talent, as well as at The Royal Variety Performance at the London Palladium, his shows are a truly mesmerising, immersive experience.
