Fantastic! Our target age group was 7, and the kids were engaged and astounded.
The visit from Archie did double duty of amazing them and helping them calm their energy levels right at the end.
Highly recommend. It was the perfect event for our family.
We had Richard perform for my 11 year old daughter and guests on her birthday party. Everyone was amazed by his magic and entertained by his humour. Richard involved every person (including the adults). Definitely recommend him for ANY event.

Booked Richard for my son’s 8th birthday, the content was age appropriate and kept them engaged the whole time.
We were thrilled with Richard Young the Magician. He was able to come perform for our daughter's 8th birthday, and we were not disappointed. He tailored his show to be perfectly suited to the age group of children we had in attendance. He was funny and gentle, and the kids absolutely loved Archie the dove! I would highly recommend him for any event.

My 7 year old birthday girl and her friends enjoyed Rosie's magic show. They were interested all the time and it was a nice extra to make a balloon animal for each. Rosie also had some special tricks prepared specially for the birthday girl which was a nice touch. Success!

Thanks Richard, for putting on an amazing show at our son's party. The kids and adults alike loved it from beginning to end. You included all of the kids and even came around to the babies (including the birthday boy) to make sure they got to be a part of the experience. We highly recommend Richard Young the Magician for any event. Thanks again!
Response from Richard Young the Magician:
Thank you so much for your kind words Reina! It was a sincere privilege to perform for your family and friends!
Richard Young the Magician did an awesome job performing at our school! The children were amazed and the parents enjoyed the show too. There was so much laughing! We look forward to having him return next year!
After Richard Young the Magician left our house, my son turned to me with a huge smile on his face and excitedly said, "That was the BEST birthday party ever!!!"
Richard Young the Magician had made him feel like the star of the show! The magic was age-appropriate, funny, and captivating. The children were so happy to receive magic tricks in their goody bags, which we bought from Richard at a great price. The kids were also excited about the balloon animals they received and they loved petting and holding Archie the dove!
We would definitely recommend Richard Young the Magician to any parent looking for a friendly and funny magician!!!
Price Range: $150 and up
Insurance: Two million - Two million
For a birthday party, parents have the option of a 30, 45, or 60 minute captivating show that their child will never forget. The shows feature age-appropriate magic tricks that involve some or all of the friends (depending on the length of the show). Then the birthday child comes up to the front to be the center of attention and to help with a special trick or two. This is a great opportunity for some memorable photographs! Then Archie the dove appears out of nowhere! The children love petting and holding him, as most have never seen such a soft, quiet, calm, and gentle bird so close before. Then Richard makes the birthday child a giant, colorful, balloon animal before making a small one for the rest of the guests. It makes for a magical and memorable birthday party!
Another option is fun walk-around magic, where the magic happens right in front of your guests' eyes or even right in their hands while they laugh in amazement.
Richard Young the Magician can also perform fun, interactive, and clean comedy magic for adults. Your guests would have a great time, scratching their heads in amazement, while having lots of laughs as they see some great magic and watch audience members on stage helping with the show.
Richard Young the Magician has performed across Canada and extensively throughout the United States. Richard enjoys traveling to different places and having the opportunity to entertain audiences of all ages with his balloon twisting, comedy magic, roving magic, and stage magic. Richard Young the Magician can customize his amazing magic for just about any occasion needed.
