I arrived at school pensive, introverted, and not very sporty, so magic became a place of mystery and intrigue, an escape for my boyish mind.
I think there's a huge amount of magic on television, which is slightly vapid: there's no real meaning or message behind it; it is simply a trick.
I would like to do things like I did in Tanzania, going somewhere and exploring a theme and investigating as well as performing for those people.
