Not For Kids!

When I used to work in restaurants I would approach a table of adults and I would often get a puzzled look.  It was the look that said "Why would you come to our table?  There are no children here."  Even with the popularity of shows like America's Got Talent and other talent shows many people still look at magic as if it is just for kids.  Nothing could be farther from the truth!  Many of the shows I perform are for adults.  I get a lot of compliments for my kids shows, but some of the kindest comments I get are from people who have seen me perform for adults.  I was recently booked for a 40th birthday party.  The birthday girl said I made that milestone much more bearable.  One time, after a stage show my client told me how happy he was with the show.  Some months earlier at their national conference they booked a comedian who was really vulgar.  The committee even had to apologize to the board.  There were no apologies after my show.  Finally, I once performed for a table of young adults at a restaurant I worked at.  Before they left they came to me and told me how much they enjoyed the show.  They had just recently put their dog down and went out to eat to console each other.  They told me they really enjoyed the show and it helped them forget about their sorrow for a few minutes.  It meant a lot to them.

Is magic just for kids?  It doesn't have to be.  Remember that when you are planning your next event.
