Overview

I perform magic for close-up, strolling, parlor, convention keynote, trade shows, small theaters, and corporate private parties, as well as public special events. I love to customize my shows to fit the needs of the event. I can be your MC/Keynote speaker and weave your theme or message into whatever magical entertainment may suit your needs.

Seriously mind blown!

We hired Adam for a surprise 40th birthday party and it was the highlight of the event! He made his way throughout the party and performed tricks to each group and the tricks he performed were amazing and left every single person in disbelief. Everyone at the party wanted his info so they could book him again. Can't recommend him enough!

Hired as: Comedy Magician, Magician, Strolling/Close-up Magician

Great Show!!

Adam was so great! We had a small party for my birthday, about 15 people ages 25-30. He tailored the show to suit his crowd, and made it super interactive! It was such a blast and all of my friends loved the show.

Adam blew us away!

"The show was incredible and he involved a lot of our guests, which they thoroughly enjoyed. We laughed so much. But it's hard to say if we liked that or the cocktail entertainment more. The close-up magic at our tables was STUNNING. We can't wait to have Adam back next year and plan to do the bigger show with his partner!"

What to expect

My job is to make your event a success. I will do all the hard work and you'll get all the credit. I want to make you look like an event-planning superhero. I will be a partner in the success of your event. How can I promise that? I was a corporate event planner for almost 14 years. I've booked the entertainment for events as big as 150,000 people. Because of this, I always offer a Pre-Event Consultation.

I’ll discuss your goals, audience, and event details to tailor the entertainment experience, ensuring it aligns perfectly with your vision. Whether it's logistics, timing, or customizing performances, this step guarantees an unforgettable event.

Everyone loves Strolling Entertainment. I can offer only this service, or better yet, as an add-on to my full stage show.

Interactive, close-up magic and entertainment that moves through the crowd, creating moments of wonder and connection. Perfect for receptions, cocktail hours, or networking events, this performance style breaks the ice and leaves guests with lasting memories.

Looking for a full Stage Show? Great, because that's my specialty!

This captivating performance is designed for larger audiences. It combines incredible illusions, humor, and audience participation. Whether for a corporate gathering or a special celebration, this high-energy show is the highlight of any event, leaving everyone amazed and inspired.

About

I've been in the professional magic community and have performed in hundreds of shows, in front of 10 people at a house party to thousands on a stage. I spent most of my life in Springfield, MO, but now reside in the Kansas City area, where I moved to in 2008. I'm married and have one son. I love customizing shows to suit the needs of the event and the guests. I'm a generalist in magic, meaning I perform stage acts, cards, mentalism, coins, ropes, sponge balls, danger tricks, and more!

Additional booking notes

I generally bring everything I need. For my full stage show, I'll provide the backdrop (from 7'x10' up to 10'x20') with backdrop lighting, a sound system and mics, tables, props, and electrical cords and components. All you need to provide is the space, which ranges from 8'x12' to 16'x20', depending on the type of show. That way, you can focus on the other aspects of your event and not worry about me. The only requirement I have is power (110v, 20amp circuit) within 50' of my backstage table.

Influences and inspiration

There are so many. I grew up in the age of David Copperfield and Max Maven. So, I bring back tricks from the past and modernize them to fit today's crowd. I embrace technology in my acts so that I can pull off some truly stunning miracles.

Setup requirements

Minimum of 8'x12' stage for a small show up to a 16'x20' stage for the larger show. Raised or ground level.

Power - 110v, 20amp dedicated circuit with a plugin no further than 50' from the center of my backdrop.

Water - I will need easy access to drinking water and sink where I can clean up props after the show.
