I have been doing magic at private shows, restaurants and bars for over 15 years. Specializing in close-up street magic as well as small to medium sit-down audiences (10-30). A combination of mentalism, card magic, and illusions using everyday items provides spectacular entertainment for any event or occasion.
It can be an hour-long sit-down show, or simply moving through the crowd performing top-level magic creating memorable experiences on a more personal level. Regardless of venue or formality, I have you covered.
Private lessons are also available (up to 10 people).

June 23, 2022We saw Mike first doing magic at a restaurant... He was so friendly and approachable, we immediately wanted him for an adult barbecue we were having a few weeks later.
Mike is great with children and adults, every single person at the party was talking about him.
I kept seeing if I could figure out his tricks,... Not a chance!
Having Mike there made our party! I can't say enough.
Worth every penny (less money than I thought it should be)
We can't wait to use him again!

June 21, 2022We hired Mike for my birthday BBQ and it was the talk of the night. He mystified people of all ages. He roamed around the house and the yard and I could always tell where he was because I would hear people erupting with cheers and ohhhhhh from every corner of the party. It was great because he brought the entertainment to the guests rather than trying to organize everyone to sit and watch something. It allowed everyone to do what they were doing but they got a smile brought to them.
There was definitely a couple of guests who followed him around trying to figure things out. No one ever did :)
They did all talk about it all night and still do talk about it to date. A few of us got together and took a magic class from him shortly after. I highly suggest that if you're into magic yourself. It's so fun to see it from both sides.
We will definitely have him back for the next party!

June 21, 2022Mike is a personable guy that can work with any type of crowd. Some of our friends are up tight and he loosened them up with his magic and quick wit. We had my dads 70th birthday party and Mike came to do some magic. He mingled with the crowd and soon gathered everyone’s attention with his mind blowing slight of hand and card tricks! He was so much fun and everyone had such a good time. My dad loves magic and he was blown away! On top of that we had some technical difficulties with our computer showing pictures of my mom and dad’s wedding and times through his life. Mike was able to fix the slide show mid act and saved the day. I guess he is a computer wiz too! I cant say how much we enjoyed having him at the party and helping out with our slide show. He is amazing and so much fun. We already booked him for my cousins wedding!

For Those Who Wish To Learn:
Classes are varied to suit your needs:
Basic Shuffling and Magical Theory- Here you will learn not only the basics in card handling. I will also teach you the theories that will not only improve any act you perform, but will help you decide what kind of magician you want to be.
Introduction to Cardistry and Mentalism- This class is meant for those who have done magic in the past and are familiar with the basics. You will get a chance to learn some of the more advanced and more versitile card handlings including an introduction to some gimmicks and basic mentalism.
Advanced Mentalism- This class studies the teachings of Corinda and is for anyone who has wanted to delve deeper into Mind Reading, Fortune Telling, and Mediumship.
All classes can be anywhere from 1-10 people
I have been doing magic for fun since I was 7 and professionally since i was 17. I moved from doing tricks for bar crowds to performing for crowds up to 100 people during my 20s and have never looked back. The art of illusion has always been a part of my life and I cant wait to make it a part of yours.
For walk around shows I am a one man entertainment machine. All I need is the location and a time to create an experience you and your guest will never forget.
For group shows all I ask is seating, and if its at night some warning for lighting.
