My husband and I booked a Couple of Magicians Francis Menotti & Lindsey Noel (they work with Chris Michael) for our November wedding. Lindsey did 1-hour of strolling during the cocktail hour to entertain our guests, which was fun and unique. After dessert, Lindsey and Francis performed a 1 hour comedy magic show with some of our guests as volunteers. They had a blast! The comedy was family-friendly and the tricks amazed our guests. Everyone enjoyed themselves and found the magic show to be a great alternative to dancing at a wedding. Francis & Lindsey were kind and respectful and we highly recommend working with them! What a delightful duo!

I can't believe I was able to bring a performer of Chris' caliber to my home for a private party — he's SO GOOD. I'm hoping to book him for another event before he inevitably has his own Vegas show, because I'm sure it'll be a short time before he is way out of my price range. He was so impressive with his tricks and comedy, and more than that he was a pleasure to have as a party guest, too. He included everyone in my house, in every room, with such a variety of entertainment that the two hours he was there felt like many more wonderful hours, and we didn't want him to leave! Chris adapted to the crowd, appealing to everyone from a 3 year old to 20-somethings to 50s plus with balloons, story telling, card and slight of hand tricks and so much more. I'm only sad I didn't discover Chris sooner so I could have had him at past events. I thought hiring a magician might be a cute gimmick for my carnival-themed Halloween party, but it turned out to be THE THING everyone talked about for the rest of the night and will for years to come! Thank you Chris!

We had a birthday party for about 12 kids and we were looking to hire someone who would show them a fun time. Chris was prompt (early actually), courteous, and polite. He put on an excellent show and was great with the kids. The show was a good mix of magic and comedy and entertainment and was well suited for the age level. On top of that, he's just a decent, down to earth guy. Some may not care about that, but it's nice when you welcome someone into your home - for whatever reason - to feel comfortable with them. Chris was eager to help with any other party items that we needed. Overall, I would rate him highly and would use him again for another event. Thanks Chris!

We booked Chris for our yearly US event which is a fairly sober affair with an audience that can be challenging. Throughout the whole booking process, Chris was an absolute joy to work with. Kind, quick to reply, funny, flexible, and a consummate professional. Upon arriving at the venue to run a sound check, he even volunteered some of his own equipment without any additional charge. The performance itself was amazing - he did a wonderful job of staying PG but just barely riding the line so that those of us with, shall we say, less socially conservative senses of humor still got plenty of laughs, while those of a more socially conservative bent still enjoyed the humor without having their sensibilities offended. He also stayed for far longer than we had contracted, doing "walking magic" with the crowd as they got drinks and food afterward. People were absolutely buzzing about his performance and the walking magic the next day, and not a day has gone by since his performance without someone mentioning how much they enjoyed the experience. We will absolutely be talking with him about future events in the DC area. Lastly - the thing that surprised me most about Chris was that despite all his credentials, all his experience and accolades, there wasn't a whiff of ego about him. He seriously was just the nicest guy and was a real joy to work with. The venue wasn't great and their A/V team had some technical difficulties during his show, but he rolled with the punches without batting an eye and I didn't hear a word of complaint from him about it afterward. He even refused to let me help him pack up his stuff at the end of the night, insisting that I go spend time with our attendees instead. All told, I'm not sure that I could possibly recommend Chris more highly. You won't regret booking him, no matter what kind of event you're putting on.

Hired Chris as a last minute entertainment for children during my Foundation launch and now looking for a date to book him for 2023, that was how good he was….OMG!!! He spent a few minutes with the adults and they are still talking about him. He was funny, engaging, and full of surprises for both kids and adults. Absolutely loved him. He was worth every dollar spent. Definitely hiring him for 2023 Christmas Party.

Details: Holiday party • Walk around magic • Balloon twisting • 41 - 70 guests • 7 - 10 years old • Community center / church

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
ALL FEES ARE INCLUDED! I simply charge a flat appearance fee that covers the ENTIRE event. Message me to discuss your options and we will make sure to go above and beyond for you and your guests.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Hiring me is frictionless and easy! If you send me your phone number and email address, I will be happy to send you more details about myself and my show. Once you decide to book me, I will send over an agreement along with a link to pay a deposit and then BOOM. You are all set.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Much of my show has been culminated by working with the same magicians who taught David Copperfield, Eric Jones, Criss Angel, and David Blaine. I also have managed the most booked show in the North East while on tour during the Summer of 2017. On top of that, I am a marketing expert and corporate planner and I apply my much of knowledge in the field to my work as a magician to provide the highest possible level of entertainment.
