Patrick Page Magic is run by Patrick Page’s daughter Janette Page and her husband Philip.

The late Patrick Page was recognised the world over as one of magic’s greatest teachers. His knowledge, experience and willingness to share what he knew made him a cherished and much missed figure on the magic scene.

It seems hard to believe that he died over 16 years ago (February 2010). On 17th March 2026 it would have been his 97th Birthday. He was born on St Patrick’s Day 17th March 1929- hence his name Patrick.

He was a very modest man and many were not (and are not) aware of the immense contribution that he made to the world of magic.

Over more than 50 years in the entertainment business, he worked on shows, films and television programmes across the world, and was consultant to many magicians.

There will be few magicians who are not performing at least one trick invented by Patrick Page, or using at least one of his moves.

Many know Patrick Page because of his generosity of spirit in sharing magic with magicians all over the world – through audio tapes explaining how to perform magic effects, later videos and DVDs, his many books that have inspired countless magicians (including his last ever book Magic Page by Page which is exclusively sold by Patrick Page Magic on this website), and of course his lectures to magicians throughout the world, and the time that he always seemed to find to share his knowledge with others.

Patrick believed in making sure that knowledge of magic was not lost and was passed from generation to generation. So much of his work has been preserved for posterity, and through Patrick Page Magic we continue his work and make it available at sensible prices.

One project that Patrick worked on was interviews with his friends from the world of magic back in the 1970’s. Patrick knew that some of his friends were getting on and their knowledge and secrets would be lost for ever if someone did not preserve them. That someone was Patrick. He recorded interviews with some of the greats of magic (and some not so well known but no less interesting people from the world of magic).

Patrick was a great interviewer and knew the questions to ask. He also dared to ask them. Some of the interviews were released by Patrick but most were not. He always intended to get around to releasing them but somehow it never happened.

We have spent a lot of time since his death listening to his library of audio recordings and have released as downloads interviews that we are sure that you will enjoy with the greats of magic who, sadly, are no longer with us.

Interviews with Dai Vernon, Fred Kaps, Ken Brooke, Maurice Fogel, Jay Marshall, Albert Goshman, Cy Endfield, Charlie Miller, David Roth etc.

We recently attended the 2026 Blackpool Magic Convention shortly and had these interviews and others available to purchase from our stand.

We are always trying to add new Patrick Page material. Well, it is not new of course but it is material that many are not familiar with. We have created 2 Patrick Page Best of Trik A Tape Years DVDs which were available for sale at our stand, as well as a Patrick Page Lecture DVD – Live at Vienna. These will shortly be available to purchase on this website.

And of course we made available for sale the Magic Page by Page book. Patrick finished the book Magic Page by Page a week before he died. Sadly he did not live long enough to see how successful the book would be and how it would help so many magicians, rich and famous, poor and unknown alike.

The first edition in hard back sold out very quickly and was replaced by a second edition in soft back. It is the same paper quality and we have added a few extra photos but it is the same book, except with a soft cover to make it lighter and cheaper to send.

We have almost run of that second edition so make sure that you get one while you still can.

The book contains details of Patrick’s inventions and routines and contains more than enough for you to create your own magic act and earn a living from magic – as of course Patrick did using these effects and routines.

We were reading a part of Patrick’s “The Pageboy Speaks Again” book recently (a compilation of articles that he wrote in Pabular Magazine) and came across these words:

“First impressions count. Getting off on the right footing is important. You are the central character in your performance. You must take the lead from the word go.

Do not push your magic at all and sundry. This merely cheapens it. Not everyone wants to watch you.

Only work if you are sure of your audience. Avoid becoming a bore.

Finish while their interest is at its peak. Do not overtax their ability or willingness to concentrate. Always leave them wanting more”

Patrick Page.

Very wise words!!!

The Pageboy Speaks Again book is available exclusively from Patrick Page Magic.

Patrick Page worked with Simon Drake on UK Channel 4’s ground breaking Secret Cabaret, with Wayne Dobson on UK ITV’s A Kind of Magic, and was a source of inspiration to magicians across the world. He was a consultant to magicians, and a consultant to magicians’ consultants!

Some of his later work included a cameo performance as a German magician doing a cigarette swallowing routine in the film “The Magicians”, and providing advice to Derren Brown for his Enigma show.

Many household names from the world of magic would pick up the phone and talk to Patrick Page when they were looking for ideas. He was always keen to share his knowledge.

He wrote many books, produced many teaching videos and DVDs and toured the world lecturing magicians sharing his knowledge with others. Magic Page by Page was his last book and one that he managed to finish just before he died in February 2010.

Magic Page by Page will be part of Patrick Page’s legacy to the world of magic.

Patrick was particularly helpful to beginners. He coached Colin Rose to win the Magic Circle’s Young Magician of the Year award and his lifelong friendship with the late great Wayne Dobson started when he provided advice to him whilst working behind the counter of Davenports opposite the British Museum in London.

At Patrick Page Magic we are keen to continue Patrick’s work in helping young magicians, beginners and enthusiasts, and are making available effects that Patrick invented at affordable prices. Most effects include a short DVD of Patrick Page himself explaining how to perform the effect.
