It was a great day for my kids and they really liked it. Thank you Marty for making our day more enjoyable.
How long have you been interested in magic?
I have been doing Magic since about 1992-93. I had met a magician that gave me lessons for a year or so. Since then I had attended magic conventions in Vegas, Calgary, Vancouver. I am always working on new magic tricks.
Learning new material.
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
I like to have the birthday child help me with some of my tricks. For adults, I like bending people's minds with some of my effects. I use cards, coins, rope, sponge balls, banana's, oranges, lemons, walnuts, and other props during my show. I like to make my show interactive with the audience. And with my illusions I like to show off the suspension of disbelief with the wonder of these amazing props that I call illusions!!
What do you love most about your job?
putting smiles on people's faces! interacting with the audiences of all ages
What inspired you to start your own business?
My father was a self employed, and we had worked in a family business. So I guess that is what motivated me.

Magic Marty
I have been doing Magic in the Edmonton area for over 30 years. I have worked for 5 years at Rick Bronson's Comic Strip as the Friday night House Magician. I have done many kids B-day shows. I also have acquired a few illusions where the assistant disappears like on tv specials etc. I have material for audience's of all ages. I like doing walkaround table to table close up magic, like in restaurants, or social and corporate gatherings. I have performed at private functions inside restaurants, and have done some platform magic at banquets, weddings etc. I am a family friendly performer. I have several illusions that each take time to rehearse and do the set up for. Especially music and direction. Hopefully this summer I will have all 5 illusions on digital platform. I am looking forward to performing all over the province of Alberta.
