Chris Herrick Magic

Chris came to perform at our son's 9th birthday party and was able to captivate an audience of kids ages 6-10 and the adults as well! Everyone was amazed and truly entertained. Chris was incredibly professional and wonderful to work with from start to finish making it a no-stress party for us! Can't recommend him enough!

The show was great, Chris is very entertaining. He did a really good job of keeping the material age appropriate and held everyone’s attention. He was professional, courteous, on time and easy to work with! Highly recommend!!

I was searching for a magician for my kids birthday party and found Chris. With all the positive reviews about him I knew he was the best option for us. He was a joy to watch and kept everyone’s attention for his entire performance. His magic was just as entertaining for the adults as for the children. He remembered the young party guests names which made them feel so special. His performance had made our birthday party so memorable and I am so happy we chose Chris to perform. If you are thinking about adding some high quality entertainment to your event book Chris!

We hired Chris to perform at our son's 8th birthday party. He was friendly, professional, and he performed a very entertaining and engaging show. I would highly recommend Chris for any event!

Chris recently appeared at my son's birthday party. He was able to entertain a roomful of kids of all ages as well as adults for an hour. He did a great job engaging every single kid and making sure all of them felt part of the show. I can't recommend him enough!

It was great, the kids had a really good time, Chris was very good with the kids and the adults also enjoyed the show!

Chris delivered his show on Zoom for a graduate student event in LA, and I honestly didn't know what to expect given the virtual nature of the show. IT WAS UNREAL. We were all as amazed over Zoom as we would have been in person. In addition to being extremely professional, responsive, and accommodating, Chris' skills as a magician are unparalleled. He catered his show to the kids and adults in attendance, and those of all ages loved it. I would give him a 10-star rating if I could and would absolutely book him again.

This guy was extremely personable.
He remembered everyone’s name extremely likable worth every penny. It was almost magical. Lol

We originally scheduled Chris for April 2020. As you can imagine with COVID we were forced to cancel but I hoped to reschedule as soon as we could. Here we are April 2021 and Chris remembered us and quickly found a slot that worked for us for my son to finally have his magic show birthday party. Chris was easy to communicate with through email and was prompt, organized and personable. The kids loved him and he was equally as entertaining for the adults! We will definitely keep him in our thoughts for future events! Thanks Chris for a delightful evening!

Honestly, Chris blew all my students away. I'm a youth pastor who needed something great for an event. This was that and more. I would 100% hire him again. Timely, professional, a HUGE hit for us!

We hired Chris for a virtual magic show for our company holiday event and we had a blast! Chris has great energy and kept our audience engaged the entire time. We had a wonderful time and many laughs were shared. I highly recommend Chris for your next event!

Chris delivered an INCREDIBLE virtual magic experience for my team and our clients, along with everyone's families! We chose the 45-minute experience and Chris did an amazing job keeping everyone fully engaged and making sure each person had an interactive part in the show! This was a perfect virtual way to gather, celebrate and still have a ton of fun together this year, in lieu of our usual in-person end-of-year holiday celebration! Plus, team members across all time zones could attend. A HUGE thank you to Chris!

We had Chris perform at our virtual holiday party. With a crowd of well over 50 Chris was able to captivate and engage every single person, even in a virtual setting. In a world where people want to avoid staring at a screen any more than they have to Chris was able to provide an exciting and engaging experience. The children in particular were over the moon with the show.

Chris was awesome - booking was easy, he was always quick to respond to emails and questions. We booked him for our Company Party, and he was loved by both the kids and the adults. It's hard to find "new" things in this time of quarantine, but Chris delivered an awesome and engaging show for our team. Thank you Chris!

Chris is a great magician and really made our 7 year olds birthday party a blast virtually. Both kids and adults had a great time! Highly recommend!

Our company booked Chris for a virtual event and the show was fabulous! It was both interactive and fun and our staff really enjoyed it. I would highly recommend booking Chris for your event! You will be mesmerized.

We had Chris do a magic show on the occasion of my daughter's birthday. My daughter's 7-yo friends and some of our family members attended over Zoom. Chris interacted really well with the kids and it was a fun and engaging show. I highly recommend him.

I am a Realtor in Chicago, and Chris put on a great performance for an audience composed of my clients and their kids. I have to say I was a little skeptical it could work well over Zoom, but I was wrong to worry. A great time was had by all including myself, I am forever a ten year old at heart. Chris managed to not only engage the entire audience, he was also successful in using the kids a volunteers. One of my client’s kid’s opened mouth in amazement on the first trick and she remained awestruck for the rest of the evening. A superlative performance, Chris was worth every penny and I wholeheartedly recommend him. Thanks Chris!

Chris was fantastic! I highly recommend him for your virtual magic show!

Chris was awesome at my sons 11th birthday party on Zoom! He kept all the kids engaged and they truly had a blast! Very interactive over Zoom and everyone loved it!

Chris made my six year old's birthday complete! We were looking for entertainment that we could do outdoors and a magic show was perfect. The kids, aged 6-8, were totally engaged and delighted by his show. Chris was extremely easy to work with, prompt with email responses and came early to set up. I would hire him again in a heartbeat!

Chris was great to work with. He was very friendly from our first contact, and always got back to me right away with answers to my questions.
The day of The show he arrived early for set up, and started exactly on time. The children, (age 2-5), absolutely Loved The show. He entertained and kept their interest the entire show, as well as the adults, and he included my grandson throughout the show, which made him feel special!

Chris Herrick performed a virtual magic show for a group of 7-10 year old kids and they loved it. Chris was great at keeping the kids engaged with plenty of opportunities for audience participation and with a variety of tricks and illusions. Some favorites were the talking picture and throwing virtual coins into a can - the kids couldn't get enough of it! He also did a great job at making the birthday celebrant feel special by doing some personalized tricks that focused on her. A virtual magic show with Chris Herrick is great option for people who are looking for a safe party alternative during the pandemic. I highly recommend!

Chris performed virtually for 30 minutes during our son's 6th birthday party. It was a fun and engaging show. The right pace for a crowd of kids that ranged from 3 to 7 years old. The kids loved it and wanted to be called by Chris to participate in the magic show. Chris has mastered the virtual show with excellent sound and lighting. I highly recommend Chris!

Chris performed at my daughter‘s 13th birthday. He was responsive, professional, and engaging. He made sure all of our guests were entertained with his very cool tricks and positivity. Highly recommend him for any age group.

We didn't know what to expect in bringing on a magician via Zoom for our company event. However, we're so glad that we found Chris! He was professional, engaging, and brought a lot of smiles and laughter to our team. In a time of uncertainty and daily routine online meetings, Chris was a breath of fresh air and allowed us as a team to unwind for an hour and sit back and relax. We loved it, thanks Chris!

Chris put on a fun and very age appropriate magic show for my son’s 8th bday. It was during the pandemic but he did a great job of doing a fun and interactive show from a safe distance in our front yard. He was really great and the kids were laughing and participating during the whole show!

I'm so glad we booked Chris for our event - even during Covid when everything has to happen virtually we still had so much fun being absolutely puzzled about how he pulled his tricks off. Doing this event virtually does not take any of the fun or mystique away! Awesome way to spend an evening

Chris is very professional, interactive, funny and really easy to work with! Our University Programming Council booked him for a virtual event via Zoom, and he amazed the audience; all we got was positive feedback. I will definitely recommend!!! 10/10

We had Chris do our son’s 7th party today and the 30 minute Zoom routine was super cute. My son and his friends were fully entertained and all left with huge smiles! Be sure to tell your guests at the beginning of the show to use the kid’s name in Zoom so Chris can call on them as helpers and also to mute and unmute when necessary to cut down on the background noise! I wish we lived close by to have been able to do the window show- that would have been awesome. Great job Chris!

Chris did a Zoom show for three 4th grade classes at our school and was AMAZING! The reaction of the students was priceless. They laughed and smiled the entire show. He engaged with students and made them feel part of the show. A very special treat for 10 year olds during this period of remote learning.

Chris performed for my remote 4th grade classroom and was a HUGE hit! The show was very interactive and all the children had a chance to participate. Tough to do over Zoom, but Chris made it look easy! The children were 100% engaged the entire show. And as a finale, he even taught the kids how to do a few tricks for their friends and family! They LOVED it! I would highly recommend for any classroom be it remote or in person. A true professional!

Chris is amazing! We have seen Chris six times in the last two years… Every time, his show was awesome. He is so engaging and talented. His shows entertain both kids and adults. I couldn’t recommend him more.

Chris was amazing! He came to our house and completely wowed our kids (and us)! He was super communicative, made sure to ask the kids ages so he knew what types of magic tricks to perform and had them engaged the entire time. When we need a magician, we will 100% book him again!!!

Chris did a fabulous show for my kids to entertain them during quarantine. They were so excited and laughing at all of his tricks. I would definitely ask him back for a birthday party.

Chris came to the neighborhood and performed a 15-20 minute magic show free of charge at the front door of several houses with young kids. He wanted to make the kids smile during this crazy, weird time of social isolation. My son absolutely loved it and was showing me “magic tricks” the rest of the evening. To hear the joy in his laughter and see the smile on his face was truly heart warming. We will be looking to hire Chris for parties in the future! Highly recommended

We had a group of over 60 individuals and had a wonderful time with Chris. He went above and beyond the show and did hands on entertainment along with a show. He was also patient and amazing with kids. Great job!

Chris was referred to me by my wife & we felt he would be an amazing fit to our event at Wellesley Country Club. From start to finish, Chris was an absolute professional! His magic & slight of hand illusions were just the surface of Chris' character. He interacted with guests from young children to retired adults & amazed them with creative, fun & interactive tricks. After the party, we were inundated with positive emails expressing how memorable Chris was. We were grateful to have him & will always consider his talents for future events with out membership.

Chris was amazing. Not only where his trucks incredible but he was so incredibly kind and patient with the kids! We could not stop talking about how amazing the show was after he left! Everyone, including the adults , absolutely loved it!

Chris provided an excellent experience at our corporate event; he was prompt, friendly and engaged all guests. I would highly recommend him.

We hired Chris to provide a magic show for a crowd of 80+ children and their adults. Chris captured their attention for the duration of his show and was able to incorporate many children into his show as assistants. He was great with the kids and his magic tricks were spot on. I am looking forward to other opportunities to hire Chris for future events!

Chris was an utmost professional. Communication was prompt. He was ready to begin exactly when we requested. His audience was largely 12 year-old children, but some had seen many similar performances and were very impressed. Chris interacted impressively with all ages. He is smooth and has a very bright future. I would recommend him without reservation- you will not be disappointed.

Chris did an outstanding job with our Halloween Party. We had about 60 people broken into two shows and he just killed it with both groups.

Chris was pure magic!!! He performed for our residents at Keystone Commons in Ludlow- Ind/Assisted Living facility. He was extremely professional and personable. He adapted his program to our levels of care and gave every resident, no matter their diagnosis, a show they could enjoy. Chris also stayed almost a half an hour over the time allotted to make sure each resident experienced his talent. We wouldn't hesitate to have him return. The residents are already asking when he is coming back. We are all losing sleep over how he did some of his tricks.

I first saw Chris perform at a friend's birthday party and couldn't believe my eyes. His close-up magic is amazing. I hired him to entertain the residents of the assisted living where I am the activities director. Not only was he friendly and patient but his illusions (large and small) are fantastic! He was a big hit and I look forward to having him back in the future. If you want a truly magical experience, give Chris a try. You won't be disappointed!

Chris did a magic show for my son’s 7th birthday. We had a wide range of ages for the kids (4-11) and they all had a blast! The show was funny and engaging, I highly recommend Chris!

Chris was definitely the hit of my event! As a Property Manager, throwing an event for a wide variety of demographics can be quite challenging. Chris was excellent at ensuring all guest were entertained and the guest are still raving about him days later.

Hired Chris to entertain a small group of volunteers for a non-profit organization. Chris had everyone in awe with his magic. He was very personable and engaging with the audience. You won't be disappointed with his performance. He is amazing!

We were struggling to find someone to come to the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Billerica for a special event. Chris was exceptionally helpful, timely, flexible and easy to work with. Not only was he available the week of, but he came prepared with two different magic shows to best adhere to the vast range of ages of children we service. Everyone, from our smallest kindergartner to our oldest eighth grader, was in awe watching Chris's performance! Our staff was also baffled by the incredible tricks Chris performed. It was an incredible way to close out another week of Summer Camp. I would recommend Chris to anyone who needs any entertainment and we will definitely be working with him again in the future!!

We hired Chris to do a fifth birthday party for my daughter. We had ten five-year-olds and he had them laughing and jumping up and down the whole time, everyone was totally engaged (including the parents). He came early to meet and do a few tricks for the birthday girl-- when I asked her afterward what her favorite trick was, it was the one on one card trick that she said was her favorite. :) He was super friendly, easy to work with, and absolutely great with all the kids. I would hire him again in a second.

Chris did an excellent job and we look forward to using him for the future.

Thank you, Chris, for being a part of our sons 12th birthday party! We had guests of all ages (4-83) and literally everyone was amazed and entertained the entire time! Chris even worked with us on surprising our son as he had no idea we had hired Chris! We loved they way he involved everyone, yet kept our son right by his side as the main "assistant", even supporting him with his own dreams in becoming a magician! It has been a few days now and I am still telling everyone how great Chris was with his tricks and how he interacted with all the kids! Thank you again, Chris!

Backyard party for an 11 year old with guests from 1-75 and everyone loved Chris! He was personable, great with kids, entertaining for all and very good at including anyone who wanted to get in on the action of helping with tricks! I will be spreading the word about Chris and his talents!

When I saw Chris perform at a Lowell Spinners game, I knew we needed to bring him to the Step Up for Colleen! Our annual 5K attracts about 4,000 people, many of them kids, and he was the huge hit that I knew he would be. He doesn't just show tricks, he incorporates kids into the act which makes it extra special for them and their parents. I loved seeing their amazed faces - young and old. He was so great to work with ahead of time and on race day. I plan to book him very soon for our next event!

Chris did a fantastic job for our daughter’s 5th birthday party. He was very easy to communicate with leading up to the event, and everything went extremely smoothly. From the moment he walked in the door Chris interacted with our daughter and did some tricks while setting up. We had 14 children including a few young ones, and Chris did a fantastic job keeping them engaged and also settled when the excitement seemed to be at a boiling point. I received many compliments from parents about how great Chris was and asking how I found him, so I feel lucky I did! Will definitely book again, for either kids or an adult party, as his magic was excellent.

We had Chris to our home for our son's 8th birthday party. We saw Chris's website and thought he would be terrific and that my son would really enjoy a cool magic show. We were absolutely blown away by how professional and entertaining Chris was. From the initial emails between us to the first moment Chris came to our door, he was absolutely professional and easy to work with. Our party had eight kids and each one, while being at different ages, was thoroughly entertained for the entire show. Even the teenagers stayed in their seats and were amazed at what Chris could do. Family and friends are still talking about this being the best birthday party they ever went to! Chris provided all sorts of fun and exciting tricks that even the adults could not figure out. My son and his friends had the best day and I'm certain he will remember this day for a long time to come. I will give the highest recommendation that I can for Chris. You will be in for a treat booking Chris for any magic event for your kids, company or anything else. He's awesome!

Chris went to our school and performed magic tricks for our kids. He included the kids in every trick! As an adult, I am in awe at most tricks performed! Would definitely hire again. Very professional and very easy booking process. If you want your guests to be amazed, Chris is the one! Mind blowing Show!!!!

Chris did a Great job! He was very easy to work with too!

We hired Chris and two friends to be strolling magician for our company holiday party. We had about 450 employees in attendance. Chris did an amazing job, our employees loved his tricks and were astonished. Days later our employees are still talking about it and trying to figure out how he was able to do what he did! I would hire Chris again in a heartbeat.

Chris recently performed at my daughters 5th birthday and he was amazing. His show was geared toward the appropriate age group and they loved interacting with him.

Chris even snuck in a card trick for my older daughter as he was packing up.

He was easy to work with and prompt. Overall I had a great experience and my daughter couldn’t stop smiling and laughing for the entire show.

Chris came to our after school that consists of grades K-5. He was full of energy and kept the kids engaged the entire time. Some of the tricks the older grades (4/5) had seen before, however there were a lot of fun new tricks that stumped all grades! He made sure different ages got to participate and involved them in the show. I have had multiple parents come up to me as well saying how much fun their child had during the magic show. I plan on recommending Chris to the other after school programs that we run because of how great he was.

We had Chris perform at our art center as part of our Children's series. Several parents came out saying it was the best show they had seen. Chris was professional, entertaining and so great to work with. Highly recommend him!

Chris came to perform for our summer program and the show was beyond our expectations! He was prompt, professional and is a very talented magician! The children and adults loved the show!

Chris entertained a group of over 20 5-8 year old kids for my daughter's birthday party. He was fantastic! Chris was funny, and involved the kids in the show. His magic even captivated the adults! He was so professional, arrived ahead of time to set up, and waited till most kids arrived to start his show, although he had another show to run to after this. I will definitely be recommending him to all my friends.

Chris is a great guy and was fantastic with the kids. They were truly mesmerized. He simply showed up and started walking around the party doing some of the most amazing close up, strolling magic that Inhabe seen. The kids all gathered around. The adults were equally as impressed.

Chris performed a terrific magic show for a recent school party of students ages 4-12. What we most appreciated about Chris's show was the interactive nature of each act and involving kids of different ages. He was funny and entertaining, and clearly had a great way of connecting with kids to keep them engaged for a 45 minute magic show! I highly recommend Chris's services to anyone thinking about entertainment for a party or event.

Chris was excellent in his communications before, during, and after the birthday party. He was punctual and ready to go when the kids were. His tricks were certainly age appropriate in that the kiddos (mostly 5 year olds) were able to follow and understand the tricks. His management skills of the kids was also excellent. He kept them engaged and their emotions/excitement under control, while fostering a fun, orderly environment. Would definitely use him again!

Chris was absolutely wonderful! He was very professional and connected with his audience so well! He came early and showed the birthday kids a couple of bonus tricks before the show. All the kids were captivated and attentive during the show...and they were giggling with laughter throughout! Afterwards, he was willing to show a few stragglers some behind the scenes tips. Everyone enjoyed the show...the target audience was 8 year olds, but we had attendees ranging in age from 3 to adult. We highly recommend Chris!

Chris kept 11 kids, ages 2 to 7, enthralled and engaged for a full 30 minutes! He had a role for anyone who wanted to be his assistant and easily accommodated a range of kids’ personalities - from
the energetic and the outspoken, to the more reserved and quiet children.

Chris was great to have come perform at our kids vacation week program. He was entertaining for all ages in attendance and the audience was laughing the whole time. He had a variety of different acts and a lot of audience participation. He was also easy to work with in scheduling and getting in contact with prior to and day of the event.

Excellent performance. Chris was quite amazing. His magic was just what we had hoped for. I'll certainly look to book him again in the future.

Chris Herrick performed a magic show for my daughter's 11th birthday party. All the guests had a wonderful time. Chris was entertaining, had a great variety of tricks, and had us all scratching our heads - how did he do that! He even taught the group how to do two tricks which everyone loved. I already recommended him to my neighbors and friends.

We had Chris perform for our company party at the Venezia in Boston and was mainly entertainment for the kids. What a great performance! Even the adults were thoroughly entertained. We especially appreciated the fact that Chris included the kids and some adults in the performance and was so good when some of the kids got restless! We will be recommending him to any one that is interested in a magician! Thank you so very much again!

I have had Chris at many of my kids parties and he is great! Fun & entertaining for kids and adults. I highly recommend Chris for parties, church, school or corporate events.

Chris preformed at my company Christmas party. I had never seen Chris preform before and he was amazing! His stage presence was wonderful. He kept everyone engaged and on the edge of our seats. The ticks were mind blowing, I’m still wondering how they were possible. My co-workers and their families really loved having Chris provide our entertainment. I would recommend Chris to preform for anyone, you just have to see the skills and talent he shows in his performance.

Chris was great. Although I was not able to attend the party itself, I heard nothing but great things. Kids as well as adults enjoyed his show. Thank you Chris.

What a professional!!!! Chris was so child appropriate!! The children and my staff continued to talk about how funny and amazing he was with his performance!!! We love Chris and Cant wait to have him come back!!!!

Chris did a fantastic job with the kids! He was conscientious, professional, interesting, good with the kids, and funny. He responded promptly when emailed about the event, showed up within a reasonable amount of time prior to the event, left when expected, and held the kids attention throughout the event. Overall, he seems to be not only great at being a magician with kids, but also a good person. If you ask me, hiring him was worth every dollar spent!

Chris was our "wandering" magician at a charitable fundraising walk we hosted in Medford. He arrived on time and immediately started engaging our walkers! Old to young were amazed by his illusions. Just seeing the faces of the kids as he performed his magic was well worth having him. He was the talk of the event. We were all very pleased with him and glad we had made Chris Herrick Magic the entertainment at our event.

I booked Chris for my son's 4th birthday party and I could not recommend him more highly to others! The kids were a group of 4-5 year olds - they were all belly laughing throughout the performance and my son had a huge smile on his face from beginning to end. The kids were able to volunteer and be involved in the act, and my son got to go up a few times, and felt like the star of the show. Chris kept the entire group entertained for 45 solid minutes, and the parents were laughing along the entire way. I had various parents come up to me and comment on how great he was. Absolutely perfect for a group of young kids. We were so happy with everything, thank you so much Chris!!

Chris made the entire process a piece of cake! He managed to entertain and hold the attention of about 20 three to six-year-old children for an hour, which surely speaks to his magic abilities!!

We had Chris at our A2FC Summer Camp for our gymnasts and campers and while we were not quite sure what we were entirely in for.....He did NOT disappoint!!!! Everybody in attendance from our gymnasts, campers, parents, and staff have not been able to stop talking about our fantastic magic show. In the words of one of our campers...."He was AMAZING....and so Tricky!!!" Magic tricks performed right in front of our eyes....we still don't know how he did what he did!!!!! Chris was professional, fabulous with all the kids of all ages and very engaging. He included kids in everything he did....even us "Big" kids!!!!
Awesome job Mr. Chris!!!!! Can't wait for next year's camp!!!!!!
If you need a magician for your next party or event....Chris is your guy!!!!! :)

We had a great time Chris was awesome had a great experience looking forward to having him in our part again

Chris provided a unique and magical experience for a roomful of 10 year olds at my son's birthday party. He kept them engaged…and amazed! Chris is punctual, friendly, polite and talented. Don't hesitate to hire him!

Chris recently performed a 1 hour show for (110) 4th grade students in an elementary school. He captivated the entire student audience including 30+ adults for the full hour. The tricks Chris chose were perfect for this age group. He was wonderful with the children and a great entertainer. He was also very flexible and accommodating during the scheduling process. I would highly recommend Chris!

Chris left a lasting impression on our son, he is still talking about some of the tricks performed and has even attempted to recreate some. Very age appropriate and a definite bonus was how many were asked to participate in the show which kept them even more engaged. This event was for my son's 7th birthday and I would definitely recommend Chris for your next party!

Chris was great from start to finish! He started by helping us out when we needed to start late by keeping them laughing while they waited. And he tailored the show for the younger kids, repeating things until they really got it, and really they were so engaged and excited the entire show!

My son, whose 8th birthday we celebrated, said that it was his best birthday party - and this was thanks to Chris and his magic show! Chris was very professional, responsive, and easy to work with at all stages of the party planning. He kept children and adults engaged and entertained for 50 minutes, and most kids got to be involved in performing some of his tricks. As it turned out, Chris came to our party on his own birthday. Thank you, Chris!

Chris put on a wonderful show. My 6-year old son and his friends were completely engaged. Great tricks and great humor. Chris was tremendous with the kids. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

We had Chris for our 7YOs birthday party. There were about 20 kids and they loved it! I couldn't believe he got them to sit and watch for over 45mins! Adults loved seeing the kids enjoy it so much and commented how he really worked to engage the audience. He was on time, professional, and friendly. We would recommend him for other children parties!

Chris was a pleasure to work with-very responsive and professional. The show was for my son's 5th birthday. There were about twenty 5-6 yr olds and they were on the edge of their seats for the full 45 minute show. All of the parents commented about how impressed they were with the show as well as Chris' ability to hold the kiddos' attention. My son was thrilled with his special day thanks to Chris!!

Chris arrived on time.. His magic was so engaging... my daughter enjoyed as well as her guests.

As communicated, Chris arrived about 30 mins prior to the start time to prepare/set up for the show. The magic show was for 6:45 pm and upon request Chris moved the show to 7 pm and he was able to accommodate this as he mentioned he had no shows later that day. Thank you for hanging around extra 15 mins while we waited for guests to arrive. The children truly enjoyed his show and they loved being part of the interactive show. We could hear all the kids screaming and laughing and they were completely entertained for the duration of the show. Thank you, Chris!

Working with Chris was a great experience from beginning to end. He was professional upon first contact and continued to be so throughout the simple booking process. He showed up on time and didn't need too much room, so he fit perfectly in our living room. He tailored the show so it was appropriate for the fourteen, mostly 5th grade boys. They loved it! They started off sitting on the couches and ended up all piled on top of each on a couple of bean bags right in front of him in anticipation! Chris interacted so nicely with this age of boys. He remembered their names and included all the kids who wanted to be included into various acts (with special attention to the birthday boy!) He was fun and suspenseful, with a "cool" demeanor that was perfect for this age group. I highly recommend him and imagine he would be great for all ages. Days later, we're still trying to figure out how he did some of the acts. It was an awesome and engaging party! Thank you so much!

Chris is awesome! The kids was amazed w a whole performance. The best thing we got to our daughter birthday party.

Chris arrived right on time for my 6 yr old harry potter themed bday party and set up quickly and easily. He was so excited to be here that his energy reflected his performance. The children ages 5-10 as well as the adults were completely engaged. To describe the childrens reaction id say MESMERIZED... he was exactly was i wanted for my Lil guy and now i think he opened a new door for my son as now he believes hes a wizard and tries to recreate all hes seen.. lol thank you Chris im humbly grateful and i definitely recommend Mr. Herrick as you will not be disappointed.

Chris Herrick performed at my son's birthday party and he really AMAZING!
So entertaining & talented. He brought all kids into his act.
The kids really enjoyed themselves tremendously!!!

Chris arrived on time and started promptly and had the kids engaged, involved and laughing from the minute he started. He involved many kids from my daughters party to help with his tricks and the kids were sucked in. Even at the end when he was packing up he kids kept going over and asking to see his props and asking him questions and he was smiling and engaging with them. I would highly recommend Chris for your next kids magic show. Ages at our show were 6-10

We hired Chris for my sons 6th birthday party. Everyone loved him! He was great with the kids, and they loved his magic.. They were literally on the edge of their seats the whole time!
To be honest we had no idea what to expect.. Didn't know if he was going to be showing up in a cape.. Lol.. he wore a black blazer, as any classy magician would.. And put on a great show!

Chris did a good show for our 7 years old kid's party.
Everything was smooth in the entire process, from the contact on the website towards the end of the show.
Recommended.

Chris added a lot to our First Night celebrations...Next year we'll need either a bigger venue or more shows...

Chris was a joy to work with! He came in and did a show for our vacation camp kids here at the YMCA over December school break, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their experience. Not only was he easy to work with and flexible when booking the event, but he was professional and pleasant at all times both in communications via email and phone and in person. The kids laughed the entire show, and were in shock and awe of the magic tricks performed. We loved how many tricks he required volunteers from, the kids love to help out! He had a great respectful way of keeping the kids sitting and quiet so they could focus on the show, his techniques were very developmentally appropriate from an educators stand point, which is not always the case with performers we have brought in. I highly recommend Chris and will be asking him back again for future events for our camps, and preschool program! Thank You!!!

Chris was awesome the kids loved him as did the adults he kept us all entertained the whole time laughing and enjoying our selves we are definitely having him back next year

For thirty minutes, Chris had twenty-one children six years old and under engaged and laughing with his wonderful magic show. Chris was extraordinarily professional and communicated a good deal about logistics and the contents of the show prior to the event. We couldn't have been more pleased and are grateful for the lovely memory Chris created for our son and family.

I am so glad we hired Chris for our son's birthday party! From the initial contact, Chris was prompt and professional. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and in a timely fashion. He was great at keeping in touch over the few weeks leading up to the party. When Chris arrived at our home, he was self sufficient in his set up, which is ideal for an in home party! His magic show was awesome! It was age appropriate and Chris did an excellent job involving all the kids who attended. Even the adults were in amazement of his act! I would not hesitate to hire Chris in the future and highly recommend him for any party or event!

Chris performed an amazing magic show at my son's 8th birthday party. I can not recommend Chis enough. He has a warm engaging nature and his tricks had all of the kids roaring with laughter (and the parents too).

First, he made sure he knew who the birthday boy was and had my son assist in a number of tricks. Then he invited a number of the guests to assist with other tricks. All of the children felt as though they too were involved in the magic. As we all know 1st and 2nd graders can be a bit challenging, but Chirs definitely has the patience to handle a room full of kids and do so in a kind and gentle manner.

Thank you Chris, for making my son's birthday party such a memorable event!

We had a group of 26 students from age 5 to 10, and they all loved the magic show that Chris put on for them. He had a way of keeping there excitement throughout the whole program.
We will definitely have Chris again next year.

Thank you Chris.

Chris did so well with the kids! Everyone was at his attention :) They had a great time being able to help out Chris with his magic. It was a fun day for my son and his friends!! We are so happy we chose Chris for the party.

Chris was extremely responsive before the event. He showed up on time and was very kind and respectful. The kids loved the show. They loved being able to participate in the tricks. Chris had the kids laughing the entire show. I would absolutely suggest chris for your child's birthday party. We are extremely happy with our decision to go with chris!!

Thank you so much Chris for celebrating my sons 7th birthday with us! You're show was so entertaining for the kids and adults! I would definetly reccomend using him for any event! Thanks for making our party so magical!

The show was great fun and involved a lot of audience participation. He did a fantastic job controlling the rowdy boys and getting them to settle down. Highly recommend the show and very entertaining for the kids!

I found out the day before my daughter's 9th birthday party that one of the guests had a balloon phobia, so the balloon twister I booked was not an option. I sent out an appeal for a magician on gig salad and Chris got in touch. He rearranged his day with less than 24hours notice and gave a fantastic show that my daughter loved!!! It completely made her day and I was so grateful that he went above and beyond to help a stranger in need.

Chris performed at my Daughter's Birthday Party and was amazing! Chris had the 20 kid's (7&8yr olds) attention from beginning to end and was very entertaining, not only for the kids, but also for the adults. He performed a number of tricks and had all of the kids engaged with calling on "assistants" and having each of them involved in the show. Chris is very easy to work with and his communication was perfect. He is a consumate professional and is Magnificent! It is without any reservation that I recommend him for any birthday party or event. You will not be disappointed! Great Job Chris and thank you for making our Daughter's Birthday Party such a Magical Day!

Chris entertained about 15 kids at my son's christening and had them all captivated and engaged! My 3 yo daughter was sitting and watching the whole time which is surprising on its own!
When coordinating, Chris was so easy and flexible to work with. He is accommodating and very pleasant. Thank you so much for providing a great show Chris!

I am so happy with Chris' performance on Saturday! He kept the attention of all of the kids, ages 4-11! My son was super excited and enjoyed every minute of the show. I am 100% satisfied with my decision to have Chris perform at my son's birthday party & would recommend him to anyone!!

Chris was punctual, professional and put on a great performance for my son's 7th birthday party. I appreciated that he was "low tech" so didn't need to be inside, didn't require an electrical outlet or much space. The children loved him and I recommend him without hesitation.

Chris was exceptionally easy to work with through the booking process, pricing was worth every penny, and the show itself was incredibly fun, for kids and adults alike. He is so well suited to doing magic for kids (we had 2 year olds to 7 year olds) and was able to engage them, have fun, instruct them, making his show seamless. I would highly encourage you to book him and recommend him without reservation. My neighbors are likely booking him next month for their kids' birthday after attending our party this weekend!

Chris performed about a 45-60 minute act at my son's 6th birthday. He was excellent. He made sure to not only involve the birthday boy, but all of the children. I would highly recommend him... Your child (and friends) will not be disappointed.

Chris just preformed at my sons 6th birthday party. With 15-20 very active children I am very impressed at his ability to keep their attention, remain patient, make them laugh and loving his magic!
My son is so happy and I would hire Chris again in a heartbeat. He is a very pleasant guy to work with and does his job well!
