His educational show is called 'The Ugly Duckling & the Magic Wand' and is the story of his life. He uses this to demonstrate what you can achieve with Self Belief , Commitment and Teamwork. He was a very shy fat child with no confidence and suffered from Dyslexia, seen by most as stupid, this lead to many years of bullying.
His is the story of a young boy, at the bottom of the pile trying to beat the odds, but by talking to family and friends they helped him through the bad times. He was given a magic box of tricks for Christmas and realised he had a skill, with self belief and commitment he finally reached the top, being accepted by all. His struggle continued through his working life because of the Dyslexia, but again with Self Belief and Teamwork he gets through. Finally, he becomes a professional entertainer, reaching the top, mixing with the rich and famous.
Eugene uses his story to educate, inspire and motivate children, it explains:-
Along the way there's lots of fun, laughter and audience participation, his talk ends with a show.

Eugene uses his story to educate, inspire and motivate children, it explains:-
- That everyone is special and has a skill, but they need to find it by trying different things.
- He tells them 'Success Comes in Cans', they need to say 'I Can Do It'. If they say 'I Can't' they will never be successful.
- To be successful you need to believe in yourself and start this with small GOALs, to prove to themselves they can do it.
- Teamwork & Commitment makes it easier to become successful.
- Children are given an understanding of what to do if they find themselves being bullied and a call to action, that they need to talk to an adult (family & friends).
Along the way there's lots of fun, laughter and audience participation, his talk ends with a show.

Subject: Wootton 55 Club To: Themagicclub Info <[email protected]> Hello again Eugene & Sheila I write to thank you once again for coming to our club in Wootton today, I'm sure that you gathered by the reaction of the members, that the afternoon was a resounding success. They all said that you really made them laugh so much and were so pleased that they had attended our meeting this month. In truth they have asked me to book you up again, so I have said I will try for them!! I know it is a long way off but it has been suggested that if you are available they would love you to come to one of the Christmas Social Meetings. We have already booked our entertainment for Christmas this year, so the date we are looking for would be Wednesday, 12th December '2018'. Anyway, I hope you have had a chance to put your feet up after your show today and have an enjoyable evening. Bye for now Dora Loft on behalf of Wootton 55 Club Dear Eugene.
I wanted to take this opportunity to say a heartfelt thank you on behalf of Heart of England Mencap for the magnificent job you did at our fundraising Ball. Your support throughout the whole event was fantastic – from coordinating with the hotel staff and keeping them to time through to making my guests feel so much at ease with your warm welcome. Your style and approach to the event helped us to achieve one of our ambitions of 'guests having ‘fun’ – the magic and communication you had with each guest before the dinner really supported this theme and the feedback I had was you were fantastic!! In terms of managing the auction – you were just so impressive – building that ‘competitive’ spirit with so much fun and laughter. That was the key part of the evening and you made it happen. I have received many comments about how fantastic you were, we've held other auctions and events before – this was by far the best. I would not hesitate to recommend you to any organisation in the future and I’d be happy to share any comments with future clients. Many thanks Helena Helena Wallis Chief Executive Mencap UK |
Dear Eugene,
Many thanks for entertaining us at our Masonic white table evening we held in November. There were so many comments on the amazing show and how funny you were. Everyone said this was the best evening we have had and really enjoyed themselves and thanks also for conducting our auction, again very professional and lots of fun, helping us raise a great amount for our charities. So many thanks once again for a fantastic night, we will certainly be recommending you and you're show to all of our friends and other lodges. Kindest regards Steve Perry Charity steward Manor of Swanburn Lodge No: 8647 From: Louise Rollins Subject: Rotary club of High Wycombe, To: Eugene Matthias <[email protected]> Dear Eugene, What a tremendous show you put on for us - the laughter didn’t stop throughout your performance. We have had such positive feedback about how entertaining and clever your act was. We finished bang on time and it was such a joy to have a longer show from you. The meal and preliminaries didn’t take as long as I had planned so we had over an hour for your act. The yellow bandana trick is so very funny thanks to your very expressive body language. It is such a skill to keep people laughing constantly for over an hour! Thank you for your kind wishes about my year as President and it is flying by. Kind regards, Louise President, Rotary Club of High Wycombe |

Dear Eugene,
Having returned from holiday, my email inbox is full with thanks for the show you put on for our birthday celebrations.
I would personally like to thank you because you turned a special day into an amazing day of fun and laughter with your amazing show. I have never laughed so much, my sides still hurt the next day!
Personally, I still can't get the image of the folded banana out of my mind. Brilliant!
I look forward to future opportunities of seeing you perform and in the meantime thank you so much for all your support.
Kind Regards,
Louise
