November 18, 2024Wonderful performance!!
Xakary was such a spectacular magician! He is so kind and friendly and flexible and accommodating, and then on top of that he’s so good at what he does! He help all the 5 and 6 year olds attention for the whole show and I loved seeing them all excited and participating! He even help our 2.5 year olds attention! I felt so comfortable having him in my home and am just so grateful for the magic he brought to my son’s birthday party. Thank you Xakary! We’ll be seeing you again? I’m sure! As all the guests were impressed too and asking for your info :)

What to expect
For the client, I make booking the event an easy and smooth process. Smaller events (in-home birthday parties, for example) do not require deposits. I am readily available via phone or email (unless I'm at a performance). You will talk with the performer directly, versus going through an agent or service. On the day of the show, I will show up early, as I understand how important your event is to you, and there's nothing worse than having the performer be late.
For the audience, my goal is to create amazing lifetime memories. I accomplish this with magic, comedy, music, and more, depending on the event. My shows are tailored to the particular audience--for children, for example, my shows for 3-5 year olds are different than my shows for 6-8 year olds, which are different again for 9-10 year olds (the younger children like "silly", the older children like different types of humor). For adults or teen audiences, the show is totally different. For all my shows, the emphasis is on involving the audience members as much as possible--both children and adults want to be the stars of the show. If you're looking for someone who will make fun of or embarrass the audience members, look elsewhere--that's not my style.
For the party parent, you will have a guaranteed 45-60 minutes of your party covered with an amazing show that will keep both the kids and the adults entertained. I encourage photos and video, for those lifetime memories. Plus, my deluxe show includes goodie bags with lots of toys (and a magic wand) that kids love, saving you time and money from having to shop.
For the corporate event planner, I worked in the high-tech industry for 20 years, so I understand what companies are looking for in their entertainment. I am an entertainer who is easy to work with (no extreme demands) , and I am very flexible.
About
I started performing magic in high school after seeing Doug Henning on television. After college I got a "real job" in the high-tech industry, performing magic for my kids (I have 5).
In 1999, I opened the award-winning "Illusionz Magical Entertainment Center" in Issaquah. Illusionz was a 40,000 square foot family entertainment center that won an award for the best new entertainment center in the country, and was open until 2007, entertaining over a half million people.
I went back to high-tech for a few years while performing magic on the weekends, and then decided to make magic my full time job in 2012. I now perform over 250 shows a year all over the Northwest, and absolutely love my job!
Additional booking notes
I provide a high quality sound system if needed, depending on the type of performance. My shows are flexible, and can be performed in just about any type of venue. Specific details will be discussed based on the type of show.

Influences and inspiration
Growing up, I saw Doug Henning on television, and the first trick that I performed publicly was a trick that Doug did on TV. I still perform the trick as a tribute to Doug, although I'm much better at it now. :)
