Best close up magician

We had James at one of our parties a couple months ago. He arrived on time and immediately connected with his audience and gave a great performance. Also what he charged was well within my budget.He did not disappoint. I would definitely use his service again and refer him to friends and family

Top notch skills!

I had the pleasure of seeing James perform in Philadelphia, and was blown away by his talents.
His card and close up magic was slick and polished, and very obvious to everyone that he takes his craft very seriously! Can’t wait to see him perform again!
Highly recommend!
