Em & Basketball Legend, Anthony Mason. Another happy customer..Even though I mentally bent his fork!

Overview

You’re already spending money to make this event special. Make it unforgettable.

I’ve been performing magic for over 20 years, and I’ve learned that the best magic isn’t really about the trick. It’s about the memory you create with the people you care about.

My style combines close up magic, mind reading, humor, and lots of interaction. Your guests don’t just watch. They become part of the experience.

I’ve performed at hundreds of events for clients including Microsoft, Nintendo, and eBay. From private parties and birthdays to corporate events, weddings, and family celebrations, my goal is always the same.

I don’t just want to give you a great show. I want to give you a great memory.

INCREDIBLE!!! WILL HIRE AGAIN!!

I hired Em for my husbands 30th birthday which was a small dinner party. Em is absolutely amazing!!!! I had a lot of skeptics in the crowd and he amazed them very quickly! Em was the highlight of the evening and truly created a memorable birthday party that my husband and our friends will always remember. He was able to create such a fun and entertaining environment and his act will have you wondering "how he did it" all night long! I highly highly recommend him for any event and cannot say enough great things about him! I am so happy I was able to get him for this party and plan on using him in the future for many events. You will be lucky to have this guy at your next event! You will surely have all your friends talking!

Em is spectacular!

I recently held a very classy corporate black tie networking event in NYC. We decided to hire Em for 3 hours to entertain our guest and help people network with each other. Our guest were totally amazed. People are still talking about the incredible magic he performed. Since this was a networking event, people are there to share ideas and become business associates. This can be hard for some people but Em made many people come together through his style of magic. He is the best way to break the ice. He will definitely be at our next event!
Do yourself and your company a favor. Hire Em!!

Awesome

My son only wanted a magician for his 8th birthday. But not any magician!!! He wanted someone to impress him and his friends with card tricks and some cool illusion tricks. Em did exactly that!! He was cool, calm with 25 rowdy boys, and boy did he deliver! They were blown away! So were the adults..... We can't wait to have him come to our own grown up party!

A charming, unconventional entertainer!

I had the honor of watching Em perform at a house party, and like every single person present, was completely blown away. He is nothing like a magician you'd expect, his performances have a personable touch that quickly warms his audience towards him. He even got my dog to perform a trick!
Em's style of magic is so close up and personal, it leaves absolutely no room for doubt, and I'm not even exaggerating. Skeptical friends were left with baffled looks and wide open jaws, the rest were thoroughly enchanted, and all night my mind was dizzy from asking myself, "How did he do that???"
Em isn't just there to dazzle and amaze his audience, he will make you laugh, gasp, clap and even squeal in amusement - he is a natural entertainer, exceedingly charming and knows exactly what to say and do to keep every single person holding their breaths and almost falling off the edges of their seats. He was definitely the center spotlight of the party.
And there I was thinking magic shows were only for kids. But Em made me experience the kind of wonderment and awe that made me feel as though I was five again. I have never been so impressed. Em changed my perception, completely. Thank you for such an enchanting evening!

Amazing experience

We hosted a 70th birthday party for 40 guests in our home ranging in age from 5-95 and every single one of was thoroughly amazed and entertained by Em. He was a pleasure to work with and even kept the kids busy long after his show was over. Can't wait to work with him again!

What to expect

Expect an interactive experience where your guests become part of the magic.

I perform close up magic, mind reading, and interactive shows for private parties, corporate events, weddings, birthdays, and family events.

Every event is different, so I adjust the performance to fit your guests, your space, and the atmosphere you want to create.

Most importantly, expect people to laugh, react, and have something to talk about when the night is over.

About

I’m Em, a New York City magician and mentalist with over 20 years of experience performing for private events, corporate clients, weddings, birthdays, and everything in between.

I specialize in close up magic and mind reading that happens right in front of you. No big boxes or cheesy magic. Just impossible moments, lots of laughs, and your guests becoming part of the experience.

Over the years I’ve had the opportunity to perform for hundreds of events and clients including Microsoft, Nintendo, and eBay.

I love what I do, but what matters most to me is what people remember afterward. If your guests are still talking about what happened days later, I did my job.
