Hi, I hope someone can please help me. I am coming to L.A. in January and I would dearly love to visit the Magic Castle. For my credentials, I am currently President of the Leeds Magic Circle in England and have been a professional full-time performing magician for over forty years. I realise it is in the rules that you have got to know another member that can vouch for me but living in the United Kingdom, unfortunately for me, I don't know any of the members.

I would greatly appreciate any help.

One thing you can do is look on thier website and see Whois scheduled to be there performing in the various ares of the Castle while you are scheduled to be there and reach out to them, especially if they are also members here.

Have you tried contacting the castle? If you are president of the Leeds Magic Circle you could very likely get in directly through the Castle.

Many thanks for your advice, I do appreciate it.
I have tried to email Jim Steinmeyer the President of the Magic Castle but I've had no reply.

You may not have to go that high on the food chain.
