He stands right in front of you, smiles at you, invites you to watch him closely, and yet you miss the moment when he dupes you. Enchanted, you ask yourself afterwards: 'How the hell does he do that?' He does it, with charm and precision, just damn well and never boring for a moment.

Rabbits were yesterday! Christoph Demian performs magic in a modern guise, slips into a wide variety of roles: deceiving as a likeable crook, irritating as a cunning card cheat, amused as a magic nerd.

An ability to change that is practically in the blood of the young magician: the son of a theater family grows up backstage, but switches to the other side of the curtain very early.

Despite all the amazing illusions, it gets very personal:

Laughing at yourself is just as much a part of it as a good portion of social criticism. He calls this part of his performance “fair magic”. Because for Christoph, it's the little secrets that make life exciting. With his art he wants to 're-illusion' himself and his audience a bit. Whether old or young, everyone is excited, amazed and amazed at things they see but cannot explain. That's why you don't experience a one-man show with him, but involve the audience in the tricks - as the star of the scene, of course without being presented.

"The boy will be a big one."
