My husband and I booked a Couple of Magicians Francis Menotti & Lindsey Noel (they work with Chris Michael) for our November wedding. Lindsey did 1-hour of strolling during the cocktail hour to entertain our guests, which was fun and unique. After dessert, Lindsey and Francis performed a 1 hour comedy magic show with some of our guests as volunteers. They had a blast! The comedy was family-friendly and the tricks amazed our guests. Everyone enjoyed themselves and found the magic show to be a great alternative to dancing at a wedding. Francis & Lindsey were kind and respectful and we highly recommend working with them! What a delightful duo!

Chris performed for the Maryland State Boychoir's Winter Camp on 2/11/23. Everything about the experience was top-notch--from the first contact with his manager Jonathan to the conversations with Chris prior to the performance, the actual performance, and post-performance. On the day of the performance, Chris visited with some of the boys at dinner prior to the performance unannounced--they loved it!! The actual performance was very engaging for all--our audience ranged from 6-year-olds through college age and adult chaperones. Everyone had nothing but great things to say and really enjoyed his skill, humor, and ease with the audience. Unknowingly, Chris selected a chorister that was struggling with homesickness for one portion of his show. After the show, this young man shared how he felt better and how much he liked "that magician." The director thought I had pre-arranged this--I didn't:) After the show, he graciously signed autographs, gave gifts to a small group of boys who won an earlier competition and took countless selfies. He was not in a rush to pack up and leave and enjoyed engaging with the boys. I highly recommend Chris for any event. He was a perfect fit for us and we hope to bring him back again in the future.

Okay, well I have to say that Chris Michael is #1 in my book! Let’s start with the fact that he’s a great magician - he will astound you and everyone around you for the entire length of the show, guaranteed. But there is more. He is a great communicator, and is very funny and entertaining, aside from the magic! So you will be amazed and charmed at the same time. From my interaction with him and his management team, I can also tell you that he is a stand-up guy, and that he communicate directly with you and will work his hardest to give you more than what you expected from him. If you are thinking of hiring entertainment for your next event, he is your man!

Details: Birthday party • Close up magic show • 1 - 10 guests • 18 or older • Private residence (indoors)

We booked Chris for our yearly US event which is a fairly sober affair with an audience that can be challenging. Throughout the whole booking process, Chris was an absolute joy to work with. Kind, quick to reply, funny, flexible, and a consummate professional. Upon arriving at the venue to run a sound check, he even volunteered some of his own equipment without any additional charge. The performance itself was amazing - he did a wonderful job of staying PG but just barely riding the line so that those of us with, shall we say, less socially conservative senses of humor still got plenty of laughs, while those of a more socially conservative bent still enjoyed the humor without having their sensibilities offended. He also stayed for far longer than we had contracted, doing "walking magic" with the crowd as they got drinks and food afterward. People were absolutely buzzing about his performance and the walking magic the next day, and not a day has gone by since his performance without someone mentioning how much they enjoyed the experience. We will absolutely be talking with him about future events in the DC area. Lastly - the thing that surprised me most about Chris was that despite all his credentials, all his experience and accolades, there wasn't a whiff of ego about him. He seriously was just the nicest guy and was a real joy to work with. The venue wasn't great and their A/V team had some technical difficulties during his show, but he rolled with the punches without batting an eye and I didn't hear a word of complaint from him about it afterward. He even refused to let me help him pack up his stuff at the end of the night, insisting that I go spend time with our attendees instead. All told, I'm not sure that I could possibly recommend Chris more highly. You won't regret booking him, no matter what kind of event you're putting on.

We didn't know what to expect as it was our 1st time hiring a magician and Chris just blew our minds out! You can't have another special event without this man. He was professional and appropriate, punctal, great communicator and super friendly. Our party consisted of kids between 9-15, plus adults and everyone was so entertained. He was the highlight of our party and something that my guests will always remember as it was everyone's 1st live magic show. There was so much laughter and "ooohhh", "wooow" "whaat"? Can't wait to hire him again.

Details: Birthday party • Close up magic show • Face painting • Balloon twisting • 11 - 20 guests • 7 - 10 years old • 11 - 14 years old • Private residence (outdoors)

Chris Michael Magic & Comedy - Famous Performer's reply
This was so fun. I know that most “birthday magicians” have. Very specific look and style that can be a little tacky. And for some people, that’s exactly what they want. But after speaking with you, I wanted to make sure to make it as unique and far from the norm as possible while still delivering an amazing memory for your daughter. I hope she is still talking about this one. I know I am!
