Who is Dynamo The Magician?

“How did he do that”; or “OMG” are just two of the words you will often hear when the Magician known as Dynamo has just performed one of his tricks or illusions.

Steven Frayne aka Dynamo was born in 1982 and grew up in one of Bradford’s toughest and roughest areas, in the north of England. 

 Dynamo got his first taste of magic from his grandfather who taught the young Magician a trick or two in an attempt to fend of school bullies, which was an everyday occurrence! Living in an area where any sign of weakness singled you out for special treatment, meant that the young Dynamo, who suffered from Crohns disease an easy target!  The magic tricks worked but Dynamo was still ostracised from his peers, perhaps not bullied but now seen as different and weird, he spend many many hours in his bedroom practising the magic tricks, and learning new ones.  Entertaining his beloved Mum, who had Steven when she was just 16 years old, and his great Gran with his then fledgling genius!Seeking to use his talents to escape, the confines of  his deprived upbringing, the young Dynamo quickly realised he needed to add more to his show than just tricks so with the mixing of hip hop and dance into his act; word of the young entertainer’s feats began to spread, and his rise up the showbiz ladder was monumental, performing bigger and bigger gigs as well as becoming a regular at showbiz events for such notables as Coldplay, The Gorillaz and Prince Charles.
