What People Are Saying

★★★★★ "Hiring Travis for our holiday party was the best decision! He was communicative, easy to work with, understood exactly what we wanted, and tailored the show to our crowd. He easily commanded the room, and walked us through a trick where everyone got to participate. Two weeks later, I'm still hearing how much people loved his performance. He's also witty, and his banter is perfect for both professional and casual events." — Greta C. Corporate Event - Card Kingdom Holiday Party

★★★★★ "Travis truly delivered for our small 40 person wedding. He wore his fanciest suit and wow’d our guests with strolling / close up illusions that guests weren’t expecting to find at our little wedding! My friends were still messaging me about him and how he did all his tricks months after! 10/10 for personality, responsiveness and of course MAGIC! I would highly recommend Travis for whatever event you’re planning 🪄" — Nicole C. Wedding Reception and Cocktail Hour

★★★★★ "Travis is THE BEST. I hired him for my partner’s surprise birthday present. He came to my apartment and performed for a group of ten of us. Leading up to the event, he was incredibly communicative and even willing to adapt an idea I had for a surprise within the show. He makes the show really personable and intimate and I know all of us who saw that show still think about and cherish it. If you’re even considering hiring him, you must! 12/10 couldn’t recommend more." — Eliza S. Small Group Birthday Party
