July 3, 2026Great Time - Highly recommend!
Thank you so much to Joe Black! We absolutely loved having him perform at our wedding! He was professional and engaging, and he kept our guests amazed throughout cocktail hour. Everyone kept talking about how fun it was to have a magic show at the wedding. We couldn't have asked for a better addition to our wedding and highly recommend him!
We really appreciated his flexibility with the last-minute timeline change on our part and his openness during our intake process to make sure we got the experience we were looking for!

Joe was great! He asked questions to tailor the show to my party and asked my preference on different tricks. Everything was amazing and we have no idea how he did any of it!

Testimonials
Joe was great. Everybody enjoyed the strolling magic show and loved they hypnosis show. We all had a great time and laughed a lot. We had really good feed back from everybody at our party. And got many laughs around the office for several days after
– Melissa R
My client was very happy with the show. I will be booking Joe for future shows. He's talented and easy to work with. A great combination
– Chuck W
Joe Black was amazing. All of the kids had a wonderful evening and were enthralled. He showed a great balance of engaging and enthralling the kids without losing control of the kids. Absolutely fantastic. I would definitely use him again and recommend him to friends
– Kevin H
Joe Black performed for a birthday party for my daughter, and I could not be more pleased. He was talented, professional, and did a great job handling some little-miss-know-it-alls who loved to shout out how they thought the tricks were done. The tricks were mostly classics I'd seen done before, but the execution was great, and all of us (both kids and adults) were thrilled for the full hour. He used plenty of humor and had a great attitude
– Wendy C
Joe came to our school to perform at our talent show cast party and the kids loved him. They didn't know in advance that there would be a hypnotist and some of them were unsure about what would happen or whether they'd believe. The left that night with stories and memories that won't be forgotten. Thank you to Joe for helping out our newly developed Drama Program and for putting on such a great performance. We'll definitely be giving him a call again in the future when our school is in need of his talent. -, 4/23/2010, Private Party, Renton, WA
– Ryan S
The show was great. Everyone loved the show. -, 2/13/2010, Celebration, Portland, OR

Joe worked well interacting with our students while "working the room" doing magic. We had several students asked when he will be back.
