I'm returning to The Magic Castle November 1st - 5th.  My performances in the close-up gallery are at 7:00PM, 7:45PM, 8:30PM, and 9:15PM. I've been a member of The Magic Castle since 2001, and have been performing there regularly since 2002.  It's one of the few places I get to perform where the audience is coming in specifically to see a magic show. Most of the time, I'm an add-on to an event.  For example, if I get hired to perform close-up magic during the cocktail hour of a wedding, people enjoy the entertainment, but it's not why they're there. Being in a proper theater, s ..read more

Over the years, I've gotten to perform for a lot of celebrities.  For about eight years, I was the house magician at a restaurant in Beverly Hills called Crustacean.  It's still a great restaurant, but has changed quite a bit.  There used to be an aquarium in the floor that served as a walkway from the lounge to the dining room.  The Rick Whitfield Band used to perform in the lounge, and they were absolutely fantastic. It seemed like someone famous dined at Crustacean every night.  If you wanted to spot celebrities, it was a great place.  It was awesome for me be ..read more
