An absolute MUST have at your event!

Henry was an absolute HIT at the cocktail hour of our wedding. He was extremely professional and classy, and the guests were raving about it all night! He is an excellent magician, and will be the highlight of any event. I highly highly recommend Henry at any event. He was spectacular!

Phenomenal

Henry was absoltuely amazing at my daughter's bat mitzvah. He had gaggles of tweens following him around - they actually forgot to play with their phones for several hours! Adults were coming over to tell me how great he was when he performed at their tables. My mom called me the next day because she still can't figure out how he knew her phone number. I would absolutely have Henry again for another party - it was money very very well spent!

What to expect

So, you're planning a party and you want to make sure your guests have a unique and memorable experience. You can have your guests leave your party saying "That was one of the best parties I have ever been to!" In fact, wouldn't it be great if they talked about your party for WEEKS AFTER it was over? Henry Carlyle gives a fast moving performance that features lots of audience participation.

It's clean, it's sophisticated, and it's fun. At a corporate show recently, a female spectator had a signed playing card in her purse, it was a souvenir from a trick performed by Henry Carlyle at the same event THE YEAR BEFORE!! Mr. Carlyle's experience with business executives, celebrities, and high powered individuals enables him to move comfortably through a party to insure that all your guests are having a fantastic time. If desired, he will involve special guests (including you) in one of his highly entertaining magical effects.

“Thank you so much for your excellent performance at the MGA Spring Committee Meeting. The guests really enjoyed your performance. In fact, you provided the perfect conclusion to a fun filled golf event. Even those who played poorly will have enjoyed their day! We look forward to your next performance at the U.S. Open Championship in June at Bethpage Black. We at the Metropolitan Golf Association can testify that Carlyle was terrific.” Gene A. Westmoreland Senior Director, Metropolitan Golf Association New York, New York

"I first met Henry Carlyle on Wall Street years ago. We visited recently and I took him to a meeting with the marketing consultants/ad agency for a portfolio company of ours. Before we all knew it, he had control of the room. The noise and laughter coming from the conference room brought in the other employees and the show was terrific. They had NEVER seen anything like it! A two minute spot-on assessment of the market at the end just confirmed the spectrum of entertainment Henry Carlyle brings to the party. By the way, he was immediately booked by the agency for an AT&T event in Dallas as a result!" Stephen H. Hays, Founder, Old Greenwich Capital

"Henry came to our Annual Finance Conference and entertained in the middle of a long day of presentations. The audience reacted extremely positively and it really helped re-energize the group. He was smart and funny and absolutely on-target for this corporate setting. He was the perfect choice for this event." Elizabeth W. Warnaco Corp. Purchase, NY

Dear Mr. Carlyle, You were absolutely entertaining at the golf dinner. Truly Masterful! We all really enjoyed your performance. We are still talking about that trick where the card moved in Lisa's hands . Thanks again and we look forward to having you next year.
