The magic I do there is smaller, but I can do also do a stage show for your event. Here is the address. 933 W Rand Rd, Arlington Heights, IL 60004 Here are some helpful tips when booking a magician. 1. Did you check out their website 2. Reviews: Reading reviews will give you a good idea on the magicians performance and service to you. 3. Response time: A lot of people will hire the first magician that contacts them. This may feed the instant gratification of someone that wants a "NOW" response but just because someone is quick, doesn't mean that you will get quality. We suggest that you get 3 referrals before hiring. Some magicians may not get back to you quickly because they are doing a show and so you might be loosing out by passing up a very qualified magician. 4. Cheap: Cheap isn't always the best. Some people have the mentality of just hiring any magician because the kids won't be able to tell the difference. WRONG! you couldn't be more wrong. Just look at kids when they play video games or watch youtube videos. Kids are smart. They know what is good. 5: youtube videos: Watching youtube videos will give you a good indication of the quality of magic you will be getting. It will also give you an idea of his/her personality and how they interact and treat the audience. 6. Appearance: Is the magician clean, what type of clothes does he wear? does he dress for success or show up in ripped jeans? 7. Background Check: did you do research on the magician? remember. You will be inviting a stranger into your home or at your venue. You at least want to check the person out and get an idea of who you're getting. These are just a few tips from my 30 years experience in magic. When it comes to magic. I not only create MAGIC! I CREATE MEMORIES. Have a MAGICAL DAY! Mark Presley I love Magic because I love seeing the smiles on people's faces when I do something amazing. I love taking people who may not be having such a good day and helping them forget whatever challenges may be going on in their life. The world needs more magic.

Not only professional but he made everyone feel so comfortable. Very small group, kept the 3 year old birthday girl interested in the complete show while at the same time mesmerized all the adults. VERY entertaining for any age group.

Thank you so much Margie for hiring my magic services for your special birthday. Your family was wonderful and so much fun. I think I might of broke the record as far as performing in front of a small group. It challenges me to adapt to all kinds of situations. The 3 year old birthday girl was so precious and I'll never forget the drop her mouth look when I started the show and did my first trick. Watching her was truly magical. Thanks again! Mark Presley

Mark did an amazing job for my daughter's 8th birthday. Prior to the birthday, there was NEVER an issue getting in contact with him. He informed me of all the details to make sure everything went smoothly. He came about 45 minutes earlier to set up and make sure the show would be set. The kids loved him and they were very entertained. His show was amazing. I stayed and actually watched with the kids. Mark is very professional and his show was top notch!

Mark did a great job with a tough crowd. It was a mix of adults and preschoolers. He entertained them, kept them engaged, and brought some of the kids up to help in his act. I would recommend him.

Hi Michael, thanks for having me at your day care. I really enjoyed performing for all the different ages. I had a great time. I think you and your staff does a terrific job with the mannerism of the children. That really helps out a lot when I'm performing. Thanks again.

Mark made our birthday party a blast! He engaged the children and adults alike. My children are all excited to have another party so we can bring him back. I would definitely suggest Mark Presley if anyone is looking for quality entertainment!
