March 24, 2026Great Magician/Performer/Comedian
We had the pleasure of hosting Robin Channing at our workplace to celebrate an employee’s 10th work anniversary, and the experience was absolutely fantastic.
He is a truly wonderful performer and an exceptional magician. From start to finish, he kept our entire staff fully engaged, involving everyone in his performance and making the experience interactive, fun, and memorable.
The tricks were mind-blowing — we were all completely stunned and amazed. Laughter, excitement, and genuine surprise filled the room, and it brought a great sense of energy and joy to our celebration.
We had an absolute blast and couldn’t have asked for a better entertainer for the occasion. We highly recommend Robin Channing for corporate events, workplace celebrations, or any special occasion. An outstanding performance all around!

Set list
I have sets for most any situation, though I often begin my walk-around sets with contact juggling, followed by cutlery bending, Rubik's cube manipulation, or playing card mentalism.
Influences and inspiration
Lennart Green, Juan Tamariz, Asi Wind, Richard Osterlind, Banachek, David Copperfield, Siegfried & Roy, Lance Burton, Jeff McBride, Gary Numan, Depeche Mode, The Cure
Setup requirements
if working a stage, I would prefer a good speaker system with a microphone, preferably wireless.
