Twenty four year old Newry man Tomás McCabe has created an online course for kids to learn magic during lockdown.
The confident young magician has performed his tricks on Britain's Got Talent in 2019, getting four yes's from the panel and helping him get his name out there.
Tomás moved to London after doing drama for years at Sheridan Stage School in Newry. He now works as a magician and mind reader covering private events and corporate functions, Tomás even got to work on some cruises in Asia before the COVID-19 pandemic started.
With everything changed at present Tomás has decided to try his first online course and he explains "It was inspired by so many parents asking me to perform online for their kids because they are so bored.
"Magic taught me an incredible amount of confidence and presentation skills i used later on, and that's what I want to share now that children have all the time in the world!"
The Online Course is called 'The Magic Academy' and Tomás charges from £4.99 a month with a 7 day free trial
"I am hoping this will help parents with kids at home while also teaching a valuable skill.
"While most online magic courses are thousands of pounds, I have gone for the extremely cheap £4.99 to simply cover the costs of running it while providing the service." Tomás adds.
