My real name is Simon Palmer and i’ve actually been a musician and entertainer for over 35 years now with various projects, some musical, some theatrical and some magical.

I come from a very musical family and my mother was a music teacher so with three other siblings who could all sing and play various instruments, entertaining was always in the family and something we always did. 

I started my performing career in the early eighties when i performed extensively playing boogiewoogie piano with a 9 piece Rhythm and Blues dance band called ‘The Jivin’ Instructors’ but as well as performing on the piano i have also always  had various comic street theatre bands on the go too.

The best known of these was ‘The Cosmic Sausages’ who travelled the streets of Europe for many years bringing their own brand of music and humour to the masses and still do.

The Professor Palmermoff Magic show was born in 1997 and inspired as much as anything by entertaining my own children and their friends who soon started showering me with bookings, well their parents did.

I have performed the show at numerous children’s birthday parties but also at weddings, christenings, barmitzvah’s, festivals, fete’s, sports day’s, fun day’s, corporate events, schools, church cabaret’s, cafe’s and pub garden’s. The Lord Mayor’s show is a regular and all manner of events big and small.
