July 1, 2021Use him for your next event!
We LOVED having Anthony perform at our wedding! We hired Anthony and his friend Brian to both perform strolling magic during our cocktail hour and it was a hit. We have heard so much great feedback from our guests in the weeks since the wedding that they loved the magicians and how they’d never seen something like that at a wedding before but LOVE it. Several have reached out asking for their information to use at other events in the future (two work events and a baby shower!). Needless to say, the strolling magicians were a hit and I cannot recommend them enough. Anthony and Brian were nothing short of professional. They were timely and very low maintenance—one of the few details I never had to stress over. For the booking process, they met with my parents, husband, and me to give us a preview of the tricks so we knew exactly what we were getting. USE THEM FOR YOUR NEXT EVENT! Guests will be talking about it for months!

Anthony was AWESOME! Not only was his performance incredible, but he was such a pleasure to work with when setting up the event. He's a fantastic, interactive, funny performer that constantly left us wondering "How did he do that??".

May 1, 2023Entertaining, Witty and Captivating.
We have met Anthony at many industry events and he is always easy to speak with and pleasant.
For the first time we got to see him perform at a corporate event last Friday. He blew us away. He kept everyone's attention during his entire performance. The guests were eagerly waiting for the next trick as soon as he finished. He had a way of being funny without it sounding forced or a routine. He even tailored the show to be relevant to the attendees.
He was there early and mingled so well with the guests. Everyone was excited to see him and interact with him. He obliged guests with strolling and close up magic during the cocktail hour.
I highly recommend him for all corporate events. He went above and beyond to make the event a success. If you're looking for a top-tier entertainer, he is the way to go. Our entire team is trying to figure out how we can do all of his events so can see more of his tricks and acts often.

February 27, 2023Highly Recommend Anthony!!
Anthony was amazing!! He was an aspect of entertainment at a precious Open House & really knocked it out of the park! Anthony was so easy to work with and was always quick to reply.
Through the night, he moved around and interacted with multiple groups of guests showing them all kinds of magic & tricks.
I only heard amazing feedback from guests who were blown away. Some even mentioned they had never considered a magician & mentalist but would consider it for future corporate & social events! I highly recommend Anthony's work for any future event and will be sure to book him again!

About
I have always loved to entertain people; it seems to be engraved in my nature. Even as a child, I knew that I was born to perform and I always dreamed of making it a career. To achieve my dream career, I completed over 20 years of acting classes and received a full ride theatre scholarship. By the age of 18, I had become well-versed in hypnosis, and by 21 I had successfully predicted the headlines of the local newspaper- a week before it was published! At age 23, I began touring the country performing magic at trade shows.
I've appeared in multiple commercials, print advertisements, television shows, and movies; but nothing compares to performing for a live audience. I love the thrill of entertaining people, and I have been fortunate enough to have done so across the US and on multiple continents. From celebrities to top corporations, I have brought a laugh and a smile to them all. My wit, clean humor, and charm give a personal moment of astonishment to every guest, treating each one as a friend and the star of the evening. I look forward to giving your event a magical touch!
