Alex was a great addition to the event! His close up magic and card tricks are truly magical. We'll be hiring again in the future and would recommend him to anyone looking for entertainment.

Hi Bonnie - thank you very much for this kind review! It was a pleasure to perform for the staff of the The Hollywood Palladium at their holiday party. They were a great audience!
As Director of the Mexican American Bar Foundation, I hired Alex to entertain our VIPs—our top donors and gala honorees—during the VIP reception before our annual gala. He exceeded expectations! His magic was sharp and impressive, and with just a few cards in his pocket, he captivated the entire audience. It is evident that magic is his passion. Thank you Alex.

Thanks so much for this kind review Paty! It was my pleasure to entertain your VIPs at the Intercontinental Hotel. Congratulations on a great gala event!
I recently had the pleasure or hiring Alex Kazam to perform for a colleague's office birthday party, and I have to say, it was truly unforgettable! From start to finish, Alex captivated our entire team with a blend of skill, charm, and pure magic.
The show began with a seamless mix of comedy and sleight-of-hand that had everyone laughing and gasping in amazement. It was clear that Alex has mastered the art of engaging an audience – no small feat when you’re performing for a diverse group of professionals! Each trick was more mind-boggling than the last, leaving us all eagerly anticipating what would come next.
While being a bit unconventional, it was a fantastic way to celebrate and brought a sense of wonder and excitement to the office that we all thoroughly appreciated.
If you’re looking for a magician who can bring a touch of enchantment and a lot of joy to your event, I highly recommend Alex Kazam. His performance will not only entertain but also leave your guests talking about the magic they experienced for a long time to come. A huge thank you to Alex for making our office birthday party a magical success!

Thank you for such a thorough and kind review Gabby! You and your colleagues at AHF were a great audience. Thank you also for the important work your foundation is doing in improving healthcare and affordable housing. Let me know if you need any more magic at your events :)
We had the pleasure of hiring Alex for NBC’s summer celebration event and we’re so glad we did! He worked the room with finesse and left everyone talking about magic days after the event was over! We loved the way he interacted with big and small groups throughout the evening with ease. Thank you Alex for surprising our guests and leaving us all guessing and in awe! I would highly recommend hiring Alex for your next event!

Hi Elizabeth! It was such a pleasure to perform for you and all your colleagues at NBC. They were all a pleasure to entertain. Great choice of venue by the way - The Aster Hotel Rooftop was very cool. Looking forward to seeing you all again!
Alex was incredible. He came to my place and performed for over 20 people, dazzled everyone with his tricks, and entertained us with his great sense of humor.
I cannot recommend him enough for your next gathering, corporate event, or party. You will not be disappointed.

Doug, thank you so much for hiring me and for your kind review! It was a pleasure to perform for you and your guests, who were all a wonderful and welcoming audience. Thanks also for the book you gifted to me about your old place of work at CAA. It's hard to put down - I've almost finished it!
Alex was great! His magic and interaction with us was top tier. Loved how he made the magic funny. Would definitely recommend Alex Kazam!

Thanks so much for the kind review Vanessa! You and your group were such a great audience.
While Celebrating my sister's and my birthday, I enjoyed watching Alex Kazam's magic show. Besides being a great magician, Alex is also a natural comedian. I tried to uncover the secrets behind his tricks but came up empty handed. Thanks, Alex, for making our birthday unforgettable!

Thanks again for hiring me for your holiday party Josh! You have a great bunch of friends and family. I'm honored I got to perform for them!
I recently attended a fantastic magic show and was absolutely blown away by the incredible tricks and illusions performed. The magician's ability to seemingly split someone in half left me in awe, and the mind-reading segments were truly mind-boggling. The atmosphere created during the show was incredible and added to the overall experience. I highly recommend this show to anyone looking for a magical and unforgettable evening. The best dinner and show I’ve ever been to!

Thanks for coming to my show Tara! Very glad to hear you enjoyed our stage illusions. It was a pleasure to perform for you and your group.
I hired Alex to do closeup magic during a special themed trivia we hosted at the Power House in Hollywood. He was a hit with the patrons, and we easily made up the cost in additional sales from people who stayed that wanted to watch more of his illusions.

What to Expect
Whether you’re hosting an intimate gathering or hundreds of people in a theater, I can work with you to provide a magical performance full of astonishment, comedy and charisma. Include your phone number to get access to discounts!
CORPORATE EVENTS
I’ll work with you to figure out the best style of magic for your event. If it’s a staff party, I can stroll from table to table performing mind-blowing close-up sleight of hand for your employees, like I did for the Universal NBC Marketing Team. I can also get set-up at a table at your chosen venue and have people come to me at their leisure, like I did for the staff of the Netflix Games department.
Perhaps you’re organizing a conference or sales event at a trade show. I have a full team and stage production for larger scale performances. We can make your CEO appear on stage in a dramatic big box illusion. I can cut my glamorous assistant MISS DIRECTION in half and put her back together, like I did for the Riverstone Community Association. I have stage illusions, sound equipment, lighting, dry ice machines and the team to make it all happen.
FAMILY PARTIES
A lot of people think magicians only do children’s parties. Not true (although I do have a great kids’ show with my magical partner, Miss Direction!)
Whether it’s a sit-down show, or walking around your home to meet your guests and amaze them in small groups, I provide the coolest way to set your party apart from the rest. Think about all the types of family events you could enhance with some magic:
Birthday Parties, Holiday Parties, Halloween Parties, Bar Mitzvahs, Bat Mitzvahs, Retirement Parties, Thanksgiving, New Year’s Eve Parties, Religious Celebrations, St Patrick's Day and more!
WEDDINGS
Weddings were my bread and butter when I lived back in my Irish homeland. I have performed at hundreds of them. Strolling magic during cocktail hour is the most popular option. Picture the scene: you and your new spouse are off getting your photos taken. Your guests are milling around waiting for you to arrive at the reception. What better way to keep their energy up and help break the ice than some amazing magic? Options are also available for an additional short show, as well as hiring me to be your Master of Ceremonies.
KIDS’ PARTIES
Nothing is as rewarding as seeing the astonished look on children's faces when they experience magic for the first time. In most instances, the parents enjoy watching the kid's reactions as much as the youngsters are enjoying the tricks! An added bonus of booking me for your children's birthday party: my kid's show is a double act with my magical partner, Miss Direction. Having both a male and female magician provides inspiration for ALL the kids in the audience.
STAGE SHOWS
There are many great magicians here on GigSalad. I know because I'm friends with lots of them. Many are fellow members of the Magic Castle. Something that sets me apart from the majority is my skill as a stage illusionist. If your event requires a performance on a stage for hundreds or even thousands of people, making a coin disappear isn't going to have an impact. You need powerful big tricks like making people disappear, cutting them in half and inexplicable mind reading that plays BIG. Watch my two videos above for a sneak peek at some of the illusions I have that will wow your audience.

Influences & Inspiration
A bring a lot of influences from the UK and Ireland to my performance. Paul Daniels, Derren Brown and Paul Zenon are three famous English magicians that inspired me to learn magic. From the local scene in Belfast, Ireland, I owe a lot to the influence of Caolan McBride, John Mahood and George Firehorse - three fantastic entertainers I've learned a lot from over the years.
Finally, from the American magic community - it's hard to beat the greats. David Copperfield's TV specials were a huge inspiration when I first saw them as a child. Seeing him live was a dream come true. In the contemporary scene, I've been heavily influenced by great entertainers such as Mark Clearview, Robert Baxt and David Regal.
