About Jack Bryce
Born in Glasgow, Jack has had a keen interest in magic since he was nine years old. His grandfather regularly invented tricks to keep his interest and his father also had a passion for card magic, which further encouraged his potential. At 19 years old, Jack moved south to join the Royal Marines. He travelled far and wide during his years of service, and he was never without a pack of cards or a few coins. On his travels, he often found himself in clubs and bars, and he always won a few beers with his magic tricks.
At 21, Jack was stationed at the Royal Marines base in Poole. He joined his first magic society, The Wessex Magical Association, in Bournemouth. He was a member of this magical society for more than seven years until he was drafted to Plymouth. While there, he became a member of the Plymouth Magic Circle. After many years as a member of this magical society, Jack was honoured to hold the office of Secretary, and then the President of the Plymouth Magic Circle.
Leaving the Marines
Once his career as a Royal Marine came to an end in 1996, Jack decided to turn his hobby into a living. He became a full-time professional close-up magician. His career is his passion, and he loves entertaining people at all events. Recently Jack moved back to the North to get married and live in Edinburgh. His magic business is also based in Scotland. Jack is currently a member of two magical societies: The Magic Circle, London, and The Edinburgh Magic Circle.
