Find a Magician in Tucson

I hired Topher to perform up-close magic, card tricks, and a short parlor-style show for a girls’ weekend trip to the Tucson area. From the first point of contact he was engaged and enthusiastic - and not to mention communicative and responsive as we planned the event. On the night of, he was the perfect complement to the evening, keeping us laughing and spellbound as he entertained us with his craft. We had a small crowd of 6, and he did an amazing job including everyone and learning names. Not to mention, he’s just a genuinely nice human who very obviously enjoys his job. He’s a gem, and you would be remiss not to hire him for your next event.

We hired George Mclsy for my daughters Sweet 16 birthday party. This was a casino themed event and we transformed our back patio into the casino floor. The kids ate, then George performed, then it was poker and blackjack time. George did an amazing job of ensuring his routine was not only appropriate for the age of the guests, yet also fit the theme of the party. He came with a poker table and performed tricks using cards and poker chips and had a full skit that flowed with the theme beautifully. I was worried how the teen guests would react, as we all know 15-18 year olds can be very hard to please, yet they all stated they thoroughly enjoyed it and thought it was a great addition to the event! He incorporated age appropriate humor and worked to involve the audience. Even the adult attendees stated they were very impressed. And his rates were very reasonable! He even stayed after the show and acted as one of the dealers during gambling time (don't worry, not for real money). I am very pleased with his performance and would highly recommend!!!

For a field trip, I brought kids I was supervising at a summer camp to Playformance for an afternoon. I did not know what to expect as I only knew as much about Playformance as what I was told over the phone. My first impression was that the building itself is pretty old (there's a good reason why) and that I was worried for my kids. Thankfully, I stuck with the "you never judge a book by its cover" principle.Once the kids and I entered, we were greeted right away by the staff. At that moment their kids were in "free time", where they were either playing Gaga, soccer, an obstacle course, or rock climbing. My kids immediately joined them for the fun. Next, the staff led all the kids in team-building games built around their philosophy (you can find it on their website). After a fun game of Box Ball, they ended the day with a compliment circle. I was very impressed and satisfied with this place. They have a mission of providing a fun and safe environment were kids of all ages are learning the values of teamwork and lifelong success. They are promoting strong physical education and healthy eating habits (the lunches they offer meet children's nutritional guidelines). The reason for the building being old is that the place they use to be located at was damaged due to arson. They were offered this place and turned it around to a great place for kids. The staff was very friendly to the kids and all seem committed to giving them a great time. Most importantly, they are  making these kids into leaders, whether it is on the field, in the classroom, or in their communities. If you are in the downtown area or near their location, I strongly recommend sending your kids here.

This was great fun!  Ross the Magician is very entertaining and performs wonderful "illusions".  The show cast was very clever, inventive and fun to watch.  Over the top comedy, crazy skits, and lots of laughs.  The dinner was very good (excellent restaurant) and the service was excellent.  Put this on your list of things to do in Tucson.A must see in Tucson!
