Trade Show, Restaurant, Bar Magic, & Strolling--on Zoom!
February 6, 13, 20 (Thursdays)
5pm-7:30pm Pacific time (8-10:30pm eastern)
Every gathering and event can be transformed into a celebration by having an exceptional magician mingle with your guests, present at the bar, or perform formal shows at an elegant table. Performing close-up magic for two to fifty guests at a time as they gather in groups or sit tableside will create unforgettable experiences at your event. This style of exquisite entertainment brings people together and creates bursts of laughter and applause. Magic is presented within inches of the spectator and in their own hands. Being this close to the action makes the experience personal, memorable, and a great icebreaker that keeps the audiences talking all night long.
