      Total-T was wonderful! We hired him for my son's 2nd birthday party. My son typically takes a while to warm up, but he was engaged from the moment the show started and participated from the start. I was so happy to see him and his friends and cousins all so into it. He held the attention of the group so well, even the parents! We would definitely hire him again if we have another occasion for a magic show. He was truly magical! :)

We have a whole range of talented party magicians, mentalists, and illusionists that are sure to make your event unforgettable.

The cost of hiring a magician in Chicago, Illinois will vary depending on the size of the event, the performance length, the type of show, and the performer’s skill level. Professional magicians with years of experience will often charge more than those just starting out.
