In addition to GigSalad, I've performed 93 shows locally through Bark (a competitive lead generation platform) since January 2020 and was awarded their Certificate of Excellence that year. I have 15 verified reviews and a 5/5 star rating there.
I perform close up / walk around highly interactive illusions using an assortment of everyday items that are guaranteed to amaze.
I've performed at corporate events, trade shows, birthday parties for all ages, at retirement homes and most recently at a Murder Mystery event where everyone were dressed as circus performers
I'm a Marine Corps veteran (MOS 2639), retired commercial pilot (Hawaii), Kenpo karate Sensei - and I love, love, love magic.
We booked Steve to entertain a group of twenty teenagers for our daughter’s Sweet 16 party. He is very personable and the girls really enjoyed his magic! It’s not easy trying to get one past some smart teens, but Steve definitely kept them guessing. I think they truly enjoyed the throwback of a magic show! Steve is super easy to work with! I’d highly recommend Old Fart Magic to anyone looking to add some unique spice & fun to your event.

I perform close up / walk around magic with an assortment of everyday items everyone is familiar with. Some involve black magic (in name only), most require audience participation and all result in, "How did that Old Fart do that?"
I've done shows in basements, backyards, living rooms. kitchens, hotel rooms, conventions, festivals, expositions, assisted living facilities and more. Every show is unique to the audience.
Most of my shows are an hour long, but I've performed at all day conventions as well (including after hours parties). I structure my shows to the requests of the event planner.
I encourage audience participation as I believe magic leaves a lasting impression when you're part of the act. Those can include predictions, challenges, imagination skits, card tricks and much more.
I'm a Marine Corps veteran, retired Commercial Pilot and Kenpo Karate Sensei. I've traveled the world and lived on both coasts and one thing I've taken away from my travels is that everyone just wants to avoid drama and enjoy the moment.
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.
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.

The first magic show I witnessed was in 1st grade, but I never imagined I'd eventually be performing shows myself. Just out of curiosity, I started watching a number of magicians on YouTube, including Brian Brushwood, Oscar Owen and Jay Sankey. Their tutorials led me to perform for my family and then for friends and business associates. Those went over so well, I started sharing illusions with my prospects and clients, and finally decided to turn professional and it's been a blast ever since.
