Danny Lee Grew is a British magician. A versatile performer who has made audiences laugh and gasp in touring theatre shows; in British pantomimes; as a support act for many comedy stars; headlining at holiday resorts, on ships, at fringe festivals, and corporate events, literally all over the world.
Danny recently completed a UK theatre tour of ‘Marvels of Mystery’, and starred in the live production of BBC’s ‘The Good Old Days’ at the legendary Leeds City Varieties. In 2021, he was handpicked to host The Magic Circle Christmas Show…a annual festive tradition in London’s West End since 1967.
