ABOUT

With over 20 years of experience performing magic for kids, I’ve found just the right magic and performing style to keep kids engaged and guarantee they have a funtacular time! At only 4 years old, I got my first few magic tricks, and by 10 years old, I was performing at a magic themed restaurant! By 12 years old, I did my first birthday party magic show, and it’s been a magical journey ever since.

Along the way, I’ve refined everything I do to make sure it’s as stress-free as possible for the adults who hire me, and as fun as possible for the kids at my shows. With every booking, you’ll receive an emailed agreement guaranteeing I’ll be there, along with my arrival time and any other key details of your event. I’ll check in a few days ahead of time, so you don’t have to wonder if I’ve remembered your event. I’ll show up on time, supply everything I need, and be ready to create a nostop magical entertainment experience kids love. Kids especially appreciate that I take time after the show to meet with them, give them a chance to pet my bunny, and hear about their favorite part of the show (they usually pick the part with all of the super silly magic wands!), and your adult guests will like that I can I can offer them a guest pass to visit the Magic Castle. I can help with your event schedule planning, themes, gift bag ideas, and more, so if you’re looking for additional assistance beyond just a magic show, don’t hesitate to ask. As I like to say, for lots of laughs, smiles, magic, and fun, hire Tricky Tim and consider it done!

Magic truly works well for any age group, as long as the show is customized specifically for the audience. The more information you can provide me with, the better, and that way I’ll be able to put together a show specifically designed to entertain the ages of your audience.

A magic show for preschoolers will avoid anything scary, and feature lots of silliness to keep things fun. Elementary schoolers appreciate a more fast-paced and high-energy show with lots of audience volunteers and chances for them to help make the magic happen. My magic shows for older kids are designed to win them over from the start with hard-hitting magic that doesn’t feel like “kid stuff,” and reminds them just how cool magic can be. Planning an event for a family crowd? I’ll put together the perfect blend of magic and fun that will be a blast for the kids, and have the parents smiling too!

Not all magicians are entertainers.  A fancy card trick might require a lot of skill, but if it isn’t presented in a way that captures the attention of kids, they simply won’t care, and will make their own entertainment.  When that same amazing magic is blended with silly props, a cartoon character-like personality, and jokes and gags kids love, it becomes a fun and engaging experience that leaves no time for kids to get bored.  My shows do exactly that, “wowing” kids with amazing magic and making that magic hilariously fun and entertaining for them so they’re laughing and smiling just as much as asking “How’d he do that?!”

Any kid knows that to be a magician, you must have a magic wand, and my show features a TON of them! As one more way to jam pack my shows with laughs and fun, I’ve collected a huge assortment of wands that always seem to get into trouble. From wands that break, squeal, wobble, get bigger, get smaller, transform, and otherwise make kids laugh and smile, kids will crack up at the biggest and funniest, collection of wands they’ve ever seen. It’s one more way I make sure my shows aren’t just fun, they’re funtacular!

With only so many days in a year, I can’t squeeze in every potential booking, but I would genuinely love to help make your next event a funtacular success.  Send me a message or give me a call, and I’ll let you know if I have your date and time available, and answer any other questions you may have.

Have an abracadabra day!
