Overview
Some mysteries are better experienced - Magic and Mind Reading for Adults
My passion is transforming events into unforgettable experiences. From a living room to corporate banquets to strolling magic at a wedding. I love creating fun experiences for your audiences. You’ll see your audience shift from edge-of-their-seat awe to falling-off-their-seat laughter.
It's about Connection: Creating an atmosphere where your guests are talking, laughing, and engaged with one another. Making you and your audience the stars!
"William adeptly performs mind reading and magic... his humor serves as a nice foil." —Chicago Reader
"Spellbinding, smart, and thoroughly entertaining." —Chicago Magic Lounge

July 27, 2026Highly recommend!
I booked Bill for a surprise 40th birthday party for my brother-in-law. To say that the experience was great would be an understatement-- he was phenomenal! From his communication and punctuality, to his performance, he was a professional through and through. If you're looking a positive and entertaining experience, do not hesitate to book Bill!

He was the best. Guests loved him, he did his best to get around to different groups. I received rave reviews. This was one element of our wedding I was allowed to have free rein on, and hiring William went amazing. He arrived early, and was ready to rock when it was his time. If you’re on the fence about William (or any magician in general)- absolutely do it.

Thank you so much for bringing some laughter as well as ooos and ahhhs to our party! He was flexible, personable, and part of the party! He did sleight of hand and was able to stroll to every corner of our party. He encouraged the nervous attendees to participate. We were truly amazed and happy to have him. Wonderful price for such a unique experience. Would recommend for future parties!

About
At age 11, I got my first job in a magic shop and have been performing ever since. This isn't just my profession, it's my passion. I love creating fun and magical experiences for the adult audiences I work. In fact, I'm having as much fun as my audiences. I've performed close-up magic at Chicago’s legendary Schulien’s Restaurant, caught cheats for a casino, and demonstrated magic for 13 years at Chicago’s Navy Pier. I regularly headline the stage show at the Chicago Magic Lounge. In 2001, I had the pleasure of teaching actor Will Smith sleight of hand for his portrayal of Muhammad Ali in the film, Ali.
