Easy to bring together.
Being based in Rome makes Utica and the surrounding Mohawk Valley a natural part of where I perform. Whether you’re organizing a banquet, a fundraiser, or a community celebration, we’ll work out the timing and setup so the entertainment feels like part of your event.

PLAN YOUR EVENT
A few details.
A clear plan.
Send your date, venue, expected audience, and the kind of event you’re planning. I’ll recommend a format and send a clear quote.
Should we choose strolling magic or a seated show?
Strolling magic is a natural fit when guests are moving around and talking in small groups. A seated comedy magic show works when you want everyone watching and laughing together. Tell me about your event and I’ll help you choose.
Is the entertainment suitable for families?
Yes. Family and community shows are designed for children and adults to enjoy together. Corporate events and adult gatherings get material suited to their audience.
Can you perform at a fundraiser?
Yes. Close-up magic can add interaction during a reception, and a featured show can provide a shared highlight. We’ll choose a time that fits your fundraising activities.
How do we reserve a date?
Start by checking availability. Once we’ve agreed on the details, a completed agreement and 50% deposit secure your date. Your quote includes travel. I arrive early with the equipment needed for the show.
