Show Description

2 different 45 min shows.

I offer two shows: one parlor show of breathtaking magic, and I also do a close-up show (with cameras) with visual sleight-of-hand that helped Joshua win the world championship of sleight-of-hand.

I can conduct a full magic class on how to impress grand kids, family, clients, and friends with magic. Two full lectures available: One on creativity that I’ve delivered at Google, Pixar, Harvard, and other places, and another lecture on Houdini.
