Want to Make Your Next California School Assembly Unforgettable and Fun?
My Interactive Educational School Assemblies Captivate Your Students from Beginning to End!
“Tricky Tim was a HUGE hit for our PTO-sponsored shows for our Pre-K and Kindergarten students. Tim hosted two shows for us on the same evening, so we could accommodate our entire school community in a way that worked for families. Tim was very easy to work with, quick to respond, answered all of my questions, and his price point was spot on. The kids were roaring with laughter – parents posted precious photos of joyful faces on social media (see my 5 year old below!), kids woke up and requested to watch Tricky Tim again, and several parents approached me at the soccer field the next day to get his contact information for their kids’ birthday parties or other PTO-based shows! Don’t hesitate to book him – you will be so glad you chose to work with Tricky Tim!“

“Tricky Tim is the Robin Williams of Magic Shows, literally non-stop entertainment, with impressive magic tricks and kid-friendly humor.”

Do you want your California school’s next educational assembly to hold your students’ attention?
I’m Southern California school assembly presenter “Tricky Tim,” and for the last 20-plus years, I have been delivering high-energy, interactive magic shows to schools, birthday parties, and other special events across Southern California. I guarantee your children will be riveted from the moment the show starts thanks to my special brand of wacky and amazing magic.
But wait a moment.
Other California school assembly presenters and magicians say the same thing. So how am I different?
“Tricky Tim was an absolute delight for all the kids at our school! He had kids from kindergarten to 5th grade laughing out loud. His zoom show was nothing short of spectacular! We had kids asking about when we would have him come back as soon as the show was over. On top of that he was very responsive to emails and made everything very easy to manage and make happen in just a short amount of time. We appreciate all the happiness and joy that he was able to bring to our school over zoom! Thank you Tim!“

2 Big Reasons Why I’m Different from Other California School Assembly Performers
There are a couple of things that set me apart from other school assemblies in California. Both guarantee your students will be captivated by my motivational and educational messages. And both have nothing to do with education or messages… and yet have everything to do with education and messages!
Kids can entertain themselves for hours on end with amazing devices that fit in their hands. Live shows have to work harder than ever to hold the interest of audiences. I ramp up what your students see and how I deliver my messages to hold their attention.
#1: My shows include a lot of ‘production value’
In magic, there’s a saying: “pack flat, play big.” It’s a popular philosophy in magic that simply means carrying small props to make your work easier. It’s a great idea in theory, but it’s one I completely disagree with. I often perform in front of 300-400 students at a time. I feel it’s important to bring a lot of ‘eye candy’ for kids. It’s one more tool in my toolbox to combat the ever-shortening attention spans.
When your students enter the assembly area, they’ll be ‘wowed’ by everything they see! A large colorful backdrop. Banners. Big props. A feast for the eyes! Why is this important? Simple.
The best school assembly presenters know you have to stimulate as many senses as possible. Kids get to hear my words, of course. But there’s so much to see beyond just the tricks themselves. At a recent event I performed at, a little boy said, “Wow, this is like a whole Broadway production!”
#2: My shows are fast-paced and never give your students a chance to get bored
Too many California school assembly experts are slow-paced. Many brag about how they can get 10-15 minutes out of a single magic trick. Not me! I move at a fast pace, so your students will never know what’s going to happen next.
While my shows are painstakingly scripted and micro-managed during the creation process, to see them you would think I’ve just finished drinking nine cans of Red Bull! I bring high energy to my shows to match the excitement level of the kids, and there are two calculated reasons for this.
First, going that fast holds the attention of the kids effectively. Second, I’m matching the cadence and emotion of my audiences. By matching kids’ natural energy levels on stage, I’m able to build rapport rapidly with your students. On a subconscious level, your kids will feel, “Hey this guy is like me!” Presto! They’re hooked.
Educational California School Assemblies Based on Your School’s Curriculum
While I do offer “just for fun” shows, my other focus is on delivering powerful messages to 21st-century students. You can read about my newest assembly program on social-emotional learning HERE. Our children are facing challenges previous generations have never had to deal with. Or at least they weren’t aware of it. I tackle these issues head-on, giving kids valuable tools to make facing these challenges easier.
Why My California School Assemblies Are So Easy
Some school assembly presenters in CA expect the star treatment. Maybe your school has even hosted a few. They demand everything! Use of your school’s PA system. A ridiculously long setup and breakdown. I’ve even heard stories of presenters who state in their contract a crew of able-bodied older kids must be on hand to help unload equipment!
Me? I handle everything myself . I don’t need any help bringing anything into your school. I have my own cart, PA system, and wireless microphone. The only thing I need from the school is an area to perform and an audience to entertain. That’s it!

I know you have a lot of choices when considering which Southern California school assembly programs you’re going to bring in. And anyone can talk themselves up. So instead, I’ll let one of my recent clients do it for me:
“Thank you so much for a fantastic show for our Thompson community! I can’t tell you how delightful it was to hear our youngest students giggling again — it’s really been a long few years. I really appreciated the shoutouts to beloved books and characters as well as the personal connections you made with our students, even taking the time to see their magic tricks. Thank you also for delivering those key announcements at the end. It was a real pleasure to have you back at Thompson and we thank you again for all the help and information leading up to this successful and delightful event!” – Shauna
