Steve responded quickly to my inquiry. The billing invoice came online and was paid online - the process was so easy.
Steve arrived as scheduled, and provided a great performance for our party
. He involved the audience (kids and adults) in every magic trick. We were all dazzled! He was worth every penny🙂

Steve responded via email quickly. When we spoke on the phone, he was very polite and informative. He offered a $35.00 discount if we booked with him within 24 hours of his offer. Looking forward to his show soon

Steve was the best! He had great magic tricks and was super patient with some rambunctious little girls. There were a couple tricks where he actually showed them how he did the trick, and they loved that. He was kind and friendly and made my girls Harry Potter Birthday party even more magical. More...

Thanks Melissa. I love performing at Harry Potter themed shows. You left out that one of your girls did a card trick for all of us and I thought that was so special. Wishing all of you a magical 2023.

I hired Steve to perform a magic show for my senior residents. He did so well by making it a personal experience for them by walking up to them and interacting with them. They loved it!

Steve did an outstanding job with the kids during the magic show. He included them in the process of the magic and even explained a couple of tricks for them! They loved it! Even the adults involved were surprised at much of the magic. It was enjoyed by all! More...

Steve was great! Everyone was amazed by his tricks! Several people sent texts complimenting him the next day after the party! Will definitively use him again!

Thank you so very much Keelyn. I especially loved, "How did you do that?" I would be honored to perform for you again.

Very nice man, did not have enough age appropriate tricks for children 6 and under.
Reply from Old Fart Magic
Thanks for the review Tracy. I have developed additional illusions to include "more" that are geared toward those 6 and under.

Steve was punctual, personable, and a very capable magician. His tricks are truly mystifying. He allowed us opportunities to decipher his magic, even showing me how to perform a rope trick, but we couldn't do it. Steve's magic is great fun and we all enjoyed some light-hearted fun after many months of sheltering-in-place, due to the serious Novel Corona Virus. Thank you, Steve. More...

Thanks Ann! Covid put us all behind the 8 ball and it sure was fun to put some of that behind us and just enjoy the magic. I'm thrilled you enjoyed the show.

How long have you been interested in magic?
I've actually been interested in magic since I saw my first show at Larimore Elementary School in the first grade, but never in my wildest dreams ever thought I could be a magician myself.
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
I do magic tricks with an assortment of props everyone is familiar with. Some involve black magic (in name only), most require audience participation and all result in, "How did he do that?"
What do you love most about your job?
I love the way everyone's jaw drops and the look of shock and amazement when the audience witnesses something their brain does not compute.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was inspired to start my magic business after witnessing so many people be amazed at my impromptu street, business and home performances. I started performing magic to entertain my family and friends, and then expanded that into my corporate sale presentations. Let's face it - magic is fun, very entertaining and rememberable.
Why should our clients choose you?
I'd say clients should select Old Fart Magic as it's affordable, extremely entertaining and unique. There won't be any gorgeous women as stage assistants (oh well). Maybe I can invite Grandma.
Walk around / close up magic
Audience participation brings the amazement close to home and is guaranteed to amaze kids aged 6 to 114.
