February 11, 2020Fantastic
Highly recommend for anyone in New York in his/her mid-20s throwing a birthday party, looking to surprise your friends.
I’m sure Randy is great for all occasions, but he performed at my 25th birthday in front of 30-40 people all in our mid-20s. His magic was very good, he got along really well with the crowd and he did a great job making everyone feel like they were part of the show
He was also very responsive, punctual, required basically nothing from me and had no issues performing in my small NYC apartment
A phenomenal addition to the birthday party - highly recommend!

September 15, 2018Amazing magician for our 7-year-old's birthday party
We highly recommend Randy for a kid's birthday party! He arrived early with his assistant Angela and performed magic tricks for one hour to a group of about 18 children. Randy has a great sense of humor and was able to engage the group for the whole time. He could not have been easier to deal with from the first contact email. Professional all the way. He does some great close-up magic tricks, is funny and had the adults entertained as well. Great guy and worth it! His assistant Angela also is very patient with kids, even if they get a little rowdy!

December 9, 2016Great entertainer!
Randy performed magic for us at my sister's 25th birthday brunch at her apartment in Williamsburg and it was TOTAL hit!! He is great at reading his audience and had some magic tricks that we still have no clue how he did! We are all in our mid/late 20s and Randy was the hit of the party and made our brunch something to remember. I would recommend hiring Randy for anyone of all ages, he's awesome!
Hot magic!!!

May 21, 2016Very Entertaining
I found Randy Masters on www.gigsalad.com, he was quick to respond and gave me a very reasonable quote. He followed up via e-mail & text and showed up on time.
Randy is very professional and entertaining. His magic show kept the children engaged at my daughter's 10th birthday party. He even stumped the adults and had them guessing how his tricks were done.
I definitely recommend him & would love to have him back for my 12 year olds birthday.

What to expect
I do "walk-around" (or strolling) magic, a stand-up show (where audience is seated during the whole show), or a combination of both (first half of event walk-around magic, and second half a stand-up show). I use plenty of audience participation, and lots of humor!
About
Randy Masters is an experienced magician with several film and TV credits under his belt, including being the party magician on the HBO pilot, "40," the Telethon Magician on NBC's "Parks and Recreation," the escape artist on Cinemax's "The Knick" (director Steven Soderbergh) and starring as Clown Uncle Matt in the movie "Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer." He was also recently hired to be the "Magic Tech Advisor" for Ben Stiller's movie, "While We're Young." He also presented 2 solo magic shows near Times Square in Manhattan: "Comedy Magic Cabaret" and "Magical Mystery Tour."
Randy offers 4 types of shows:
CLOSE-UP/STROLLING MAGIC: Intimate and personal magic performed for small groups of guests while strolling at a corporate event, cocktail parties, receptions, a pre-dinner "warm-up" idea, or at dinner tables before or after the meal. Also known as "walk-around magic." Great on its own or when combined with a stage show for a banquet. Randy does strolling magic with cards, coins, borrowed bills, silks, dice, borrowed rings, ropes, spoon and key bending, mind reading effects, and much more.
PARLOR MAGIC SHOW: A smaller stage or platform show that is a combination of stage and sleight of hand magic. Great for a hospitality suite, dinner party, small theater, house party, or other smaller venues. (Suitable for 15-100 people.)
STAGE SHOW: A fun and interactive combination of magic, comedy, mentalism, and plenty of audience participation. For this show, Randy (accompanied by his assistant, Angela) performs magic and mind reading with cards, ropes, bottles, balloons, newspapers, coins, eggs, potatoes, rings, borrowed bills, and much more. Great for club meetings and banquets. The stage show includes both magic and mind reading effects. Suitable for 80 to 600 people.
MENTALISM ACT: Mind reading at its best! The range of his abilities includes ESP; mind reading (telepathy); psychokinesis (spoon, fork, and key bending); newspaper predictions; clairvoyance; mental magic; blindfold routines, and the power of psychological suggestion. The types of tests in a typical performance can include asking participants to concentrate on subjects they would like to share: drawings, names of friends, children, pets, phone numbers, and locations. Your audience will be amazed!
For children's shows, Randy also offers a COMBO SPECIAL!! Randy regularly works with face painter and balloon twister, Angela Carranza (who is also featured on GigSalad). So feel free to ask him about their magic, face painting and balloon twisting combo special!! Two performers for one reasonable rate!
