Introduction
Hello, My name is Steve Wastell. Hope you're having a great day! I am a Medal Winner and regular performer at the world famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. I think you'll find my performances distinctive from most others. I design my shows to be more unexpected than regular commercial magic and I guarantee you will see jaws drop in amazement. Think David Blaine or Kris Angel with a sense of humor :) I really believe a true magician doesn't merely "do tricks". A true magician connects with their audience and takes them to a place of wonder. My shows are infused with humor, so your guests will always leave with a smile on their faces and a story to tell for days afterward. Please watch my videos and read my reviews here and on Yelp. I am also always willing to work with your budget. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you. Steve I love the connection with people. It's not about fooling people or even doing a fun trick. It's about taking someones day and making it special, making an impression, something they talk about and remember.

I reached out via thumbtack to hire a magician for a party in Palm Springs. Steve responded immediately and we spoke about the party. He had some great suggestions to maximize the interaction with guests. He was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Even though the plans for the party changed and didn’t go forward with the magician portion, I would definitely hire Steve for an event big or small.

“Everyone wants a magical solution to their problems, and everyone refuses to believe in magic” ~Mad Hatter Steve was invited to perform for 36 guests at a gathering of kings and queens for my themed 57th birthday soirée. In the presence of some of the most discriminating skeptics of magic, Steve was as smooth as silk and left in his wake 36 “new” believers with their mouths dropped and their disbeliefs suspended. Steve commanded the room with his warmth, charm, and ability to connect us all to a magical world of wonder, surprise and delight. He was simply MAGICAL. He was more expensive than any of the other magicians I interviewed for the position, and as a firm believer in you get what you pay for, my curiosity was peaked. After one magical telephone conversation, I was convinced he was the man for the job. He unapologetically held his ground and was confident of his offerings. HE DID NOT DISAPPOINT, HE IS WORTH EVERY PENNY. YOU WOULD BE FOOLISH NOT TO HIRE HIM. In fact, as a curator of social experiences, Steve will be the only magician I hire for future events. Yes, he is that good. Thank you Steve, I will see you at an event soon. peace…love…joy Joy Blessman Avocado House

I hired Steve for our Firm Holiday Party. I found Steve on Thumbtack I saw his videos, which are pretty impressive. Steve always replied, professional and was there on time and worked with the DJ on sound. Excellent as far as professionalism goes! But this guy live, OMG nor I or I don't think anyone expected what Steve brought to the table. Everyone was in ahhhhh, or scared (LOL). As for his show, he was mind blowing, I can't thank you enough for having our firm enjoy you incredible and mouth dropping magic. Steve had all these big wig partners and attorneys and basically the entire firm asking WTH!! No one was expecting what Steve had in your back pocket, and everyone was so impressed asking me how the hell I found Steve! Steve you did me more than right and I would hire you again in a heartbeat! Amazing just amazing!! Thank you so much HNY!!

Where do I begin!? I cannot recommend Steve more highly. My husband and I love magic and we were trying to get to a show for his birthday. I was 8 months pregnant then and it was getting harder to leave the house so I turned to thumbtack and found what was way better than going to a show- Steve! He and I conspired to make his show a surprise for my husband's birthday. We invited about 25 people over and it was an absolute blast. Steve was completely professional, responsive, so so talented, and worth every dollar. His show was mind-blowing; it was also moving and helped us connect to magic. He got the audience involved and made our time so special. We think Steve is the real deal and encourage you to look no further for any magical event you may be planning. Thank you, Steve!
