Options for your Event

I customize what i do for your event. I can do any combination of Magic & Puppet Shows, Strolling Close-up Magic, Caricature drawing and game leading.

Shows

For any event, I can do a really funny, high energy interactive magic & ventriloquism show for children of all ages or the whole family. The show can be 15-45 minutes long. It’s not just magic, I also do ventriloquism with cute animal puppets, gags, etc. I can perform in most spaces indoors or out. I perform for audiences of any size. The show can be geared just for kids, or i can do a family show for all ages.

Caricature Drawing

Everyone will be entertained AND all of your guests can go home with a caricature drawing – a great party favor and memory of your event. I’m very fast on the draw – I draw 15-20 people an hour in B&W on 11 by 14″ paper. I make it fun and funny – people love to watch.

Caricatures are a great option instead of, or in addition to face painting or balloon twisting. Caricatures tend to be faster than balloon twisting and face painting, and are permanent. Balloons pop a lot and fall apart, especially at outdoor events, and face paintings get washed off. Many clients have me combine caricatures with a show and/or strolling close-up magic. I’ve been entertaining people as a professional caricaturist for 30 years. I bet I’ve drawn 100,000 people (but I haven’t been counting!).

Strolling Close-Up Magic

I perform magic up close and personal with your guests by strolling through the crowd or going from table to table, entertaining small groups of 1-8 people at a time. It’s highly interactive and a lot of fun. Your guests will be volunteering and helping with most of the tricks. I entertain most groups for 3-6 minutes at a time and move around as needed. This is perfect for kids of all ages, and adults too. One advantage of strolling magic over balloon twisters & face painters is that there is no long line of bored kids waiting their turn. Additionally, it’s more entertaining than balloon twisting and face painting!

Sometimes I even mix in some strolling ventriloquism – the cute animal puppets chat and interact with the kids.

Company Picnics

What I’ll do at your picnic just depends on what you would like, how many guests are there, and whether you have other entertainment there. For smaller picnics with about 20 kids, if you have me for 2 or 3 hours, I might get time for 3 or 4 activities. For large events, I could just concentrate on 1 or 2 activities such as a magic show plus caricatures. I often try to take about 10 minutes to do parachute games for kids because it’s such a great activity for picnics. I can easily and quickly move from activity to activity as needed.

Open Houses – Grand Openings – Trade Shows – Meetings

I can do caricature drawing and/or strolling close-up magic. This can be for the adults or I can concentrate on just entertaining the kids. I’ve done these activities at all kinds of places such as large and small retail stores, offices, malls, convention centers, car dealerships, etc. It works out very well and helps bring people to your event.
