March 23, 2021Wildly exceeded expectations!
Terry is an amazing magician. His show is full of surprises and he leaves you wondering how is that possible throughout his show; very talented! Terry was hired to perform at my 5 year old daughter’s birthday party, during the pandemic. He could not have been more respectful with meeting our safety needs as far as that goes. He did a great show all while wearing a mask! We had an audience on Zoom of about 25 people who were all impressed and sending me messages wanting to know how he did his tricks and wanting his contact info. After the event, he surprised our daughter with a special piece of art that he created for just for her. Incredible experience from booking, entertainment and beyond. You will not regret booking Terry for your next event!

We had Terry come by for my wife’s birthday party and everyone at the party was raving about him. His close up magic was unbelievable and blowing everyone’s mind throughout the party. Would highly recommend!

May 16, 2026Excellent Magician for 30th birthday party!
I booked Terry for a 30th birthday party to perform strolling magic for a mix of ages, and he was fantastic! Terry arrived on time, fully prepared, and immediately got everyone engaged. From 7-year-olds to 88-year-olds, everyone was amazed and entertained. His close-up magic was especially impressive and left everyone completely stumped. He made guests feel involved and part of the show, which made the experience even more fun and memorable. I highly recommend Terry for any event — he truly wowed the crowd!

Additional booking notes
Additional information:
Terry will do everything possible to make his portion of the event as easy as possible.
Once you have selected which show you would like, Terry will give you a timeline as to when to expect his arrival, prior to the show. Terry will arrive early in order to get the show set up and ready, before the audience arrives (if possible). A sound check will be performed (if needed).
Once the show is ready and we are ready to start, either you can introduce me (Terry will provide you with the introduction information) or Terry will have a pre-recorded introduction, that can be used.
After the show, Terry will tear down and load out the show. He will always check with you, before saying his final goodbye's. You will be amazed by the audience members that will want to talk to and congratulate him on the show. Of course, all that praise will go to you, for hiring him.
