creative studio where illusions are created, stories are written, and secrets are kept
some nights, the doors open
Our Concept
A Creative Studio in Downtown Porto
Time for Magic is the private working studio of World Champion Magician Helder Guimarães, internationally recognized for his close-up magic and theatrical storytelling. This place is devoted to research, writing, and the quiet development of new work.
Here, ideas evolve slowly.
Occasionally, they are shared.
Founder’s Note
“I never imagined what Time for Magic became. What I needed was a place to think.
For many years, Magic has been my way of asking questions: about us, about humans, about our limits, and about the stories we tell ourselves to understand the world. Most of that work happens quietly, away from the stage, surrounded by books, notes, unfinished ideas, and long moments of doubt.”
