5 year old birthday party

Chazam was the perfect surprise for our magic loving 5 year old. There were lots of laughs and smiles by both children and adults. He kept everyone engaged the whole time and let our birthday boy participate in the show! A very special day! We would recommend Chazam for any party!!

Kids loved Chazam!

Hired Chazam from GigSalad not really sure of what to expect. Chazam showed up early and set up his props. Was very pleasant and professional. He delivered a set that the kids loved! My daughter was turning 7 and Chazam made sure he incorporated her into the set. My daughter thought he was really funny. All the kids and parents appeared to have a great time! I would time. We couldn't have asked for more!

Great Birthday Entertainer and Magician

Chazam was great at both doing magic and entertaining. The first graders and parents all had a fun time. There was a lot of loud laughter and inquisitive kids amazed by Chazams tricks. Highly recommend him for parties.

Great Show for Everyone Involved

Kids and adults both loved the show. The kids also really enjoyed being able to go up on stage and interact/help do the tricks. I can't say enough about his professionalism. I would definitely recommend booking him for any kind of children's event/party.

Perfect entertainment!

Chazam did a wonderful job at our daughter's 10th birthday party. The kids were excited/challenged by the magic tricks. The audience participation was a nice touch. Everyone left with a custom balloon animal as well. We would definitely recommend him.

Very Professional and Funny Magician.

Chazam was very professional and was a great addition for my daughters birthday party. All of the kids loved him. He called me a few days before the party to confirm and discussed his needs and my needs. He showed up early to set up, he worked with the kids. His show was great and he even made balloon animals for all the kids as well.
Overall he was such a hit and I would absolutely hire him again.

Great entertainment!

Chazam is very cordial and responded to all our questions very quickly. He was very flexible when we had to reschedule. We had a birthday party for our 6 year old. All the kids sat quietly and watched. Chazam was very entertaining and was able to get everyone giggling. He has a good mix of tricks. I would highly recommend.

A "Magic" Christmas Diner

We hired Chazam as our featured entertainment for our annual Christmas Diner Party. Chazam communicated well before the event and arrived early for set up. We had 50 guests in attendance. Dessert ran a little late and Chazam was very accommodating. Chazam opened his act with a couple of classic tricks that were warmly received by the crowd. As he did those tricks he was also learning the crowd. He then selected two people from our group for an audience participation card trick. He was very personable and put everyone at ease. By the end of the trick he had the whole room laughing, cheering and clapping. He enlisted a sassy 92 year old woman for the Chinese linking ring tricks. Others braved the hand Guillotine and trusted Chazam that they would come away with both hands. Everyone enjoyed the show!!!

Fabulous for all ages!

We hired Chazam for our Cub Scout Blue & Gold Banquet, and could not have been more pleased. He was very professional, timely, reasonably priced, and stayed in touch with us the week before and day of our event. Both parents and children in attendance thoroughly enjoyed the performance, and we would hire Chazam again in a heartbeat!

What to Expect

Chazam interacts with his audience, doing some of the classics of magic, mixed with storytelling and humor, developing a rapport with those watching, encouraging them to assist in making the magic happen.
FUN family oriented entertainment for all ages, using NO foul language or blue material.

About

Chazam has been performing in magic since 1969.
He co-founded the Astra Magic Company in 1970, where he honed his talents and expertise, demonstrating tricks over the counter and performing at children's parties, conventions, trade shows, public shows with the IBM (International Brotherhood of Magicians) club, etc. He has served several years as an officer of the IBM Ring 129, Recipient of the Sorcerer's Circle, and a 25 year member of the Order of Merlin.
Chazam performs parlor magic (effects that are small enough to be done in a home, but large enough to be seen on stage or in an auditorium).

Additional Booking Notes

My act is flexible enough to present in a family room at a home residence, to performing on a full stage in a theater.
Venue needs to provide sufficient lighting to provide adequate visibility for larger audiences. Performer can provide sound for audiences up to 150 if venue is unable to.

Influences & Inspiration

My mentor in magic was H. Claude Enslow, who performed in the KC area for many decades. Claude performed in vaudeville, on radio and television. He was the Santa Claus for the downtown Jones store for over 16 years. I learned most all of my timing and interaction with my audiences, with both children and adults, by accompaning Claude to his bookings, and observing his technique and style over the last years of his life.
I also attend magic club meetings and magic conventions to hone my skills and learn techniques from other Master’s in the trade to improve my performance skills.

Setup Requirements

Platform or staging for a 8 x 10’ area is needed for maximum visibility for large groups

Set up can take up to 30 minutes

Wireless lapel microphone is preferred
