5.00Absolutely fantastic experience. What you are about to experience is something truly unique — a beautiful connection between the art and beauty on the table, inspiring stories that stay with you in life, and one of the true masters of close-up card magic performing just inches away from you, yet still leaving you completely unable to understand how it’s done. It feels impossible… but it’s real. A magical, unforgettable experience that I highly recommend!
FUNtastic!

5.00Helder’s show is a truly unique and fascinating experience. The magic is unexplainable and each trick is more mesmerizing than the previous one. But it doesn’t stop there. The stories Helder shares are enough for a show of their own. He shares unique experiences that seem surreal. All that coupled with a room that creates the perfect environment makes for an unforgettable experience. Don’t think twice! Go watch Time for Magic!

5.00Absolutely fabulous. Amazing! Hélder, in addition to being an exime in the letters, is an incredible storyteller, who draws our attention and interest to the maximum, from the first to the last moment. Hours after the show and back home we were still all glassed and commenting on everything he presented to us!
An evening you won’t forget

5.00There are shows that entertain and there are shows that transform, this is the second type. The way Helder creates complicity with the public is rare. What a talent. I left the theater to question what is real, what is possible and how much we still let ourselves be surprised. Thank you, Helder Guimarães, for reminding us that magic exists when we believe.
