Overview

About

Benjamin Barnes', fascination with magic began when he was a boy growing up in Chicago. During his college career, one of the greatest magicians of the 20th Century discovered Benjamin's potential and became his mentor. After graduation, Benjamin took his place in Corporate-America. After an early employer learned Benjamin was a magician was a magician, he asked him to provide the entertainment for a group of prospective clients. That informal performance was the begining of a career that has taken him across the country. Today Benjamin Barnes is one of the most sought after entertainers for professional audiences. His work combines the mysteries of magic with a warm and engaging personality.

REVIEWS:

“Thank you for making our holiday party a big hit. Your card tricks and sleight of hand were incredible, and people are still talking about them. I will never look at the Queen of Hearts the same way again!”
Michael M. | PepsiCo

“Benjamin Barnes’ performance gave our office party the magical “kick” it needed. He works hard as a performer and has the flexibility to accommodate any situation. Give the opportunity, I would book him faster than you can say abracadabra!”
Colleen M. | Appraisal Institute

“I had contacted Benjamin Barnes to perform his magic for the 1,800 children that attended our Company Christmas Party. Benjamin performed 8-10 shows throughout the day and the children as well as the adults were thrilled with his performances. Benjamin was professional and handled the children very well. When the children were asked what their favorite part of the program was they all agreed that the magic was the best part of the show (he out performed Santa Claus!). Benjamin was definitely an asset to our party.”
