A private party at Maggiano's
I'm Nick Gasparro, a magician and mentalist specializing in stand-up magic and mind-reading that commands the room and gets the crowd talking. I perform at corporate events, private parties, weddings, libraries, and small-business gatherings, and also offer close-up magic for intimate settings.
This isn't an act you simply watch — I pull guests in with impossible predictions, borrowed objects, and moments that feel unexplainable. It breaks the ice and leaves people with a story they'll retell long after the night ends.
I tailor every performance to your audience, and each set is polished, sophisticated, and made for adult audiences.

When you book me, you're getting a polished, professional experience from first message to final reveal. Here's how it works.
We'll start with a quick conversation about your event — the occasion, the crowd, the venue, and what you want your guests to walk away with. From there, I'll recommend the right format, whether that's a stand-up performance that gathers everyone for a featured show or close-up magic and mentalism that moves through the room.
On the day, I arrive early, set up quickly, and need very little from you — just a small space to work and an audience ready to be amazed. The performance is fully interactive: your guests become part of the magic through impossible predictions, borrowed objects, and mind-reading that feels genuinely unexplainable.
Every set is tailored to your audience and designed for adults. It's clean, sophisticated, and built to spark conversation, break the ice, and leave everyone with a story they'll be retelling long after the night ends.

I got started in magic at the age of 8. I was in Washington D.C. with my family on vacation and a magician in a magic shop made a small red silk vanish right in front of my eyes. Poof. Just like that it was gone, and I was hooked. I read everything I could find about magic and watched every special. I specialize in close-up magic- the intimacy and realness of being able to perform simple, elegant magic with ordinary objects is a skill I value and love to share
I pride myself in being able to perform and execute in a wide array of venues and can adapt to fit your needs
Saturday
Private Party
9:30pm - 10:30pm
Every performance is customized to the event, but a typical set blends mentalism and magic into a seamless, interactive experience:
Opening — I draw the room in with an attention-grabbing piece of mentalism that establishes right away that this is something they've never seen before.
Mind-Reading & Predictions — The heart of the show: thoughts revealed, freely chosen words and numbers divined, and sealed predictions that match impossible outcomes. Guests think of something private, and somehow I already know.
Audience Interaction — Volunteers and borrowed objects take center stage, so the magic happens in your guests' own hands and becomes their story to tell.
Stand-Up Feature — A featured routine that gathers the whole room together for a shared, jaw-dropping moment.
Close-Up Magic (optional) — For cocktail hours and intimate settings, I move through the crowd with up-close magic that unfolds inches away.
The Finale — A powerful closing reveal that ties the evening together and leaves everyone talking.
Pacing, length, and content are tailored to your audience and event — designed for adults and built to keep the energy high from start to finish.
