Magical Dave is a full-time NYC teacher (with a Master's in Education) and a dad! Seen on the Channel 11 News and in The New York Times, Magical Dave is the only NYC magician who arrives with a live rabbit, a live snake, and party bags! With his customized shows, Magical Dave is silly enough for 3 year olds, but savvy enough for teenagers, and can easily accommodate groups with special needs.

Magical Dave's show is packed with non-stop laughter and oodles of audience participation. The show starts when your child makes Marshmallow (a very cute rabbit) and Fluffy (a very friendly snake) appear, and concludes when the birthday child is suspended over three feet above the ground! After the show, all children get balloon animals, can pet the rabbit, and hold Fluffy the snake (a great photo opportunity). Dave doesn't wear makeup and nothing is scary in his show.

For children 6 and older who want more than just a magic show, Magic Workshop is the only one of its kind! After a 40-minute magic show that includes the live rabbit and live snake, Magical Dave teaches everyone three amazing magic tricks. Children keep the tricks they learn and receive a terrific party bag.

Dave has been performing at children's birthday parties for over 20 years, and has performed for Mary-Louise Parker, Billy Crudup, Oliver Platt, Annie Leibovitz, David Rockwell, Maya Lin, Magic Johnson, Al Pacino and top magicians from around the world. His shows are perfect for birthdays, bar/bat mitzvahs, communions, Halloween, Christmas, Hanukah, or any other event!

With his unique animals, hands-on workshop, no-fuss party bags, and ability to relate to children, it is easy to see why Magical Dave is one of NYC's top children's entertainers. Magical Dave guarantees all of his shows; if you're not 100% satisfied, he insists that you don't pay!

    Wonderful! I agree with the other testimonials; Dave's show is fabulous. Dave performed at my son's 7th b-day. The kids all loved the show, and especially loved the magic workshop! Dave was great with the kids and held their full attention the entire time. Highly recommended.

    Dave was at my son's 5th party. He was terrific! He kept all 25+ kids completely engaged for 1 hour. His show catered perfectly to the ages of the audience and the kids loved meeting the rabbit and the snake! Highly recommended; a great performer!

    Dave was a huge hit at my daughter's birthday party! The children (and parents) couldn't stop talking about how funny he was. He kept all of the children entertained for a full hour. I've seen a lot of children entertainers...Magical Dave is the best by far.
