“I saw the performance of a charming Close-Up Magician, Eric DeCamps. He takes top-level magic pieces, and performs them perfectly: coins appear and disappear; his card work seems actual magic; he does cups and balls, the disappearing egg, uses a spirit box with ropes, and one I haven`t seen before that is surely actual magic: bread crumb
“I saw the performance of a charming Close-Up Magician, Eric DeCamps. He takes top-level magic pieces, and performs them perfectly: coins appear and disappear; his card work seems actual magic; he does cups and balls, the disappearing egg, uses a spirit box with ropes, and one I haven`t seen before that is surely actual magic: bread crumbs and a cup. DeCamps, an ingratiating persona, is a master of sleight-of-hand, and his show, one of the best you`ll see of this kind of magic, is entertaining from start to finish.”

"Eric DeCamps presented his one-man show “Pure Magic – A Performance of Contemporary Conjuring” that has played to sold-out houses in New York City and other cities throughout the United States.
He concluded his show with a haunted cabinet inside which ropes and rings inexplicably link and unlink. Eric is rewarded with a prolonged standing ovation, after which he offers the audience an encore: three volunteers each note a card in a shuffled, brand-new deck. The deck is enclosed in a small frame on a table, and the frame is completely covered by a clear glass bell jar. On command, each of the noted cards rises from the isolated deck.
The astonished audience springs to its collective feet to give Eric another extended and well-earned ovation. He performs elegant and sophisticated magic with grace, intelligence, and an obvious love of the art."
