What actually happens
I work the room
I go from group to group with magic that happens inches away, in your guests' own hands, using things I borrow from them. Nobody has to sit down, nobody has to be quiet, and nothing stops while I do it.
The magic is visual, so it lands even when the music is loud and the room is busy. And I bring far more material than I need, then choose what fits each group as I go.
The guest of honor
Your son or daughter is the star of it
Whenever they are not busy with someone else, the magic happens around them and to them, in front of their friends.
That is the part they describe to people afterward, and it is the reason I build the show the way I do.
Tell me a few things about them beforehand, the kind of things their friends would know, and I can build something around them that could not be performed for anybody else.
"We wanted to thank you so much for the fantastic job you did at our son Adam's Bar Mitzvah. Not only did you keep the kids entertained, but a number of adults told us that you blew their minds with some of your tricks. Thanks again for a great day!"
Two ways to do it
Walk-around magic, or walk-around plus a show
The deluxe
Walk-around plus a show
Two hours, plus 20 minutes- Everything in the walk-around package
- A 20 minute comedy magic and mind reading show
- Brings the whole room together at once
- Your guest of honor at the center of it
One less performer to hire
There is a budget argument, and it is a real one
Most entertainment reaches either the children or the grown-ups. This reaches both, which usually means one performer instead of two. There are no agency fees either, because you are dealing with me directly.
I bring money magic, rope effects, mind reading, comedy and a great deal of audience participation, so you are not booking a narrow act and then filling the gaps.
Who you are hiring
A day you only get once
15 years as the tableside magician at Max and Erma's and 16 more at the Old Bag of Nails, which is where you learn to work a loud room full of strangers and win it over in ninety seconds. That is the same skill a Mitzvah reception asks for.
Two term President of the International Brotherhood of Magicians here in Central Ohio, and a recipient of the Society of American Magicians Houdini Thurston Award.
The show is clean, age appropriate and sensory friendly, so every guest in the room can enjoy it. Anyone who takes part is treated with respect, and the laugh is always shared with them rather than aimed at them.
If your guests do not enjoy it, you pay nothing
It matters most on a day you cannot do again, and nobody has ever asked me to honor it.
