(1). What’s the quickest way to contact you?
Because of my busy show schedule, the fastest and most efficient way to schedule your event is by filling out the appropriate booking form (Birthday Booking Form or Event Booking Form). However, you may Email Me or call (518) 369-0096 with any questions or concerns you may have. My replies are always prompt! TOP OF PAGE

(2). How far in advance do you need to be booked?
I generally schedule my shows months in advance. Therefore, I highly recommend booking at least one month prior to your event. I am occasionally able to accommodate last minute bookings, but the earlier you schedule, the better the chance that you’ll get the timeslot you want! TOP OF PAGE

(3). Do you use animals in your act?
Absolutely! I include my real live bunny rabbit, Jinxs, into the act. The birthday child will help me to make Jinxs magically appear on their special day. Of course, the rest of the children will be mesmerized by a real live magical bunny rabbit, as well. Also, Jinxs loves to be loved, so all the children will be able to pet and play with Jinxs if they like. TOP OF PAGE

(4). Do you have references?
Of course! It’s important to review the references of any children’s entertainer. You can view all of my references by CLICKING HERE.   TOP OF PAGE

(5). Do you require a deposit?
Yes. A non-refundable deposit is required to book your event. The reason for the deposit is so that I can secure your date and time slot for you. TOP OF PAGE

(6). What forms of payment do you accept?
I accept the following major credit cards: Visa, MasterCard, American Express & Discover card. I also accept debit cards, Paypal, cash or check. TOP OF PAGE

(7). What happens if I need to cancel?
I understand that unforeseen circumstances can sometimes necessitate a cancellation. If this happens, I ask that cancellations be made at least 7 days prior to the event date. Those who cancel with at least 7 days advance notice will receive a credit to be put toward a show on a future date. Those who cancel with less than 7 days notice will risk forfeiting their deposit and the credit toward a future show. TOP OF PAGE

(8). Do you have a costume?
Makeup, wigs, and garish costumes can be very frightening to some children and may foster an uncomfortable environment. Therefore, I always dress in non-threatening and professional attire, such as brightly colored suit jackets, vests, or shirts. TOP OF PAGE

(9). Do you perform outdoors?
I find that performing indoors really allows for the best possible experience. Performing indoors minimizes external distractions (wildlife, noise, etc.) and eliminates any concerns about inclement weather. TOP OF PAGE

(10). How far in advance of the show should I have the children arrive?
Always build in a 15 to 30 minute window before the show to allow time for the children to arrive. Please do NOT book the show for the same time you tell the kids to arrive. As I have multiple shows each day, it is important that the show start on time so that every child can be part of the experience. TOP OF PAGE

(11). How much space is required?
I recommend having an open area of at least 10 feet x 10 feet, but I am adaptable to most venues. Upon arrival, I always do a walk through to pick out the best possible room/location for the show. During the show, children will be sitting down on the floor in front of me, as this provides a more intimate experience, a more comfortable atmosphere, and a better view for them, so the more room there is available, the more space there is for them to spread out and be comfortable.

(12). Can the children be in the room as you set up your show?
It is usually best to keep the children in a separate room while I set up for the show. As a good magician never reveals his secret, allowing the kids to view the set-up process will only detract from the fun and the mystery of magic! However, I realize that sometimes another room just is not available. In this case, I can be flexible and set up in the same room if need be. If this will be the case, please notify me in advance so that I can prepare accordingly. TOP OF PAGE

(13). What is the cost of your show?
Because I offer an array of different packages with a variety of optional add-ons, and as each show is customized to your particular event, the best way to get a price quote is by filling out the appropriate booking form online. I will get back to you promptly with a definitive price based on your requests and your needs. If you feel more comfortable doing so, you are more than welcome to call me at 518-369-0096 to discuss your event and the pricing structure. I look forward to speaking with you and to making your next event magical, mystical, and memorable!
