Neighborhood: Central Business District
The Sydney Central Business District is abuzz with energy. Power brokers run to and from high rise buildings and after-work drink places, high-end shoppers tour venues like the QVB, and fine diners frequent the many celebrity chef restaurants. For a dose of culture, walk to the NSW Art Gallery, or visit the Sydney Museum. To escape the hustle and bustle, reconnect with nature at the Sydney Botanical Gardens or picnic lunch at High Park. No matter your interest, be sure to check the full calendar of events hosted by the city, from the Sydney Festival in January to October’s Good Food Month at Hyde Park.

My wife and I attended Bruce's show last weekend at the Sir Stamford Hotel. In an intimate setting he entertained and amused us for nearly 90 minutes, with a style of magic I've not seen before. Most of it was close up, which is very difficult to do with an audience, but Bruce pulled it off brilliantly. I can I highly recommend this performance.

While staying at the unique Sir Stamford hotel we decided to see the resident wizard. It was wonderful to participate in some sophisticated magical entertainment in an intimate historical hotel setting.
The show was executed very well and involved story telling as well as audience participation.
It was very different entertainment and we felt very privileged to see it in such a beautiful ghostly setting ! We left wondering and discussing what we saw and how it occurred ....

We had a wonderful evening. I took my 13 year old grandson to see the show and it was all smiles. He loves magic, has seen other live shows and has learnt many tricks himself, from his father and some on YouTube. We loved the stories, the way they were put across and it had our full attention during the whole performance.
The venue was incredible and most fitting:) Overall we had such a lovely night. Highly recommended and thank you!

Not only did he show why he is a worthy member of the Select Magician's Club, when I thought I knew how he did some tricks, he did them so masterfully, they were so seamless they make you believe magic is real. Some were brilliantly conceived, and executed. Even experienced magic-goers gasped at the skill. And he mixed humour with world wise philosophy. Go! Be Amazed and entertained!

My wife and I went to see Bruce perform his magic. Bruce is a wonderful storyteller and competent magician who provides wonder and enchantment in the lovely Sir Stamford video. My wife went home and watched nearly 10 hours of magic videos following his show, captivated by the wonder he created and thinking "how did he do it"?

The Gentleman Magician’s Magical Soirée was a good show, which relied heavily on this magician’s skills rather than fancy props. The acts were skilfully executed and left this audience member beguiled and questioning what I had just seen. On one level the acts appear to be simple, but there was no doubt the Bruce Glen was “good at being deceitful”. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience!!

A very entertaining evening in an extremely elegant environment. Great value too, with nibbles and a glass of bubbles. Supper afterwards in another elegant sophisticated room with the magician himself coming to say hello!!! A very friendly and charming affair.

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our evening with the Gentleman Magician, Bruce Glen. He draws you along with a twinkle in his eye and obvious wonder in his heart. The beautiful surroundings, his delightful assistant, the intimacy of the venue, canapes and champagne all combined to create a fantastic night out. Afterwards at the bar is a must to chat and go over the events with other amazed guests and Bruce. Highly recommended.
