How to Find the Right Magician for Your Party in New York City!
When you’re looking to hire a magician for your party in New York City, there are a few things you should keep in mind. First, consider the type of magic you want. Do you want close-up magic or stage magic? Close-up magicians perform small tricks that are typically meant to be seen by a small group of people, while stage magicians perform large-scale illusions that are meant to be seen by a larger audience.
Next, think about the theme of your party and what kind of act would complement it. If you’re throwing a corporate event, for example, you might want to look for a more sophisticated act that would be appropriate for business professionals.
Finally, make sure to research the magician you are considering hiring before making any final decisions. Read reviews from past clients, watch videos of their performances, and ask around to see if anyone has any recommendations.
For example … I have over 200 Five Star Reviews. Hint. Hint.
By taking the time to do your research, you can ensure that you hire the right magician for your guests.
There are a variety of magicians available for hire in New York City, each with their own unique style and skillset. If you're looking to add some magic to your next party or event, consider hiring one of the following types of magicians:
Close-up Magicians:
Close-up magicians perform magic tricks that are typically designed to be seen up close, making them ideal for smaller parties and gatherings.
Stage Magicians:
Stage magicians typically perform larger-scale tricks that are meant to be seen from a distance. If you're planning a larger party or event, a stage magician may be a good option.
Mentalists:
Mentalists specialize in performing feats of mind reading and other similar tricks. If you're looking to add an element of mystery to your event, consider hiring a mentalist.
-Illusionists: Illusionists specialize in creating illusions that often involve disappearing acts or levitation. If you're looking for a magician who can really wow your guests, an illusionist may be the right choice.
What to Expect? The Unexpected, of Course.
You’ve seen magicians on TV and in movies, and you’ve probably even seen a few live shows. But what can you expect when you hire a magician for your company party or client event?
First of all, don’t expect the impossible. (Sorry)
A good magician will be able to perform some amazing feats, but they won’t be able to make your guests disappear or turn them into frogs. If you really want to make someone disappear, I can recommend some Russian mobsters from Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. Cash is required and you have to supply your own cement.
Second, don’t expect the show to be exactly like what you see on TV. A good magic show is interactive and engaging, so expect your guests to be involved in the performance. This is one of the things that makes live magic so much more exciting than watching it on TV. (And many of those famous TV magicians use a lot of edits and CGI.)
Finally, don’t expect to be able to figure out how the magician did their tricks. Even if you think you saw something, chances are good that you didn’t see what you thought you saw. See?
Magicians are experts at misdirection and deception, so it’s best just to sit back and enjoy the show.
How to Make the Most Out of Your Magician at Your Party
A little bit of planning can go a long way in making sure you get the most out of your magician. Here are a few tips:
Let the magician know how many guests will be attending your party. This will help them plan their performance accordingly.
Communicate any specific requests or needs you have for the performance in advance. This could include things like guest interactions, special tricks, or music requirements.
Prepare an area for the performance ahead of time. This could be an empty space in the room or a designated stage area. Make sure there is adequate lighting and sound for the show.
For walk-around magic, just make sure the party music isn’t too loud and that there is enough light.
At the start of the performance, introduce the guests to the magician and let them know what to expect from the show. Or, let it be a surprise!
Sit back and enjoy the show!
