Magician in Minneapolis

Recently I had the opportunity to present strolling magic for a fund raising gala in Minneapolis.  They sent a nice comment after.


"Norm provided his 'walk-around' magic services for our 5th Anniversary Gala at the Graves 601 Hotel here in Minneapolis. Having used his stage show services in the past, we already knew him to be the best choice. Norm is not only a master magician but doing his 'mingling magic' he's also a master of providing magic and comedy in a respective and unobtrusive manner. He knows how to work his way in and around the crowd, so you hardly know he's there until bursts of laughter or "WOWs" are heard from various small groups around the event. Norm, you're simply the BEST!"

- Tricia Haynes, MicroGrants Gala at the Graves 601 Hotel, Minneapolis. 


It is fun to be a Magician in Minneapolis. I enjoy seeing the smiling faces.

Yes, Magicians will Teach Their Tricks

Well, for a price.  Many magicians are invited to teach others at conferences on magic.  I was recently in Atlanta teaching my comedy magic inventions. I also taught a class on how to think in a theatrical way and add those techniques to solo performances.  In addition I taught a class on running a small business and a number of other ones. Eight different subjects total.

I strive to be unique in my approach to magic. There are many Magicians in Minnesota and it is necessary to stand out in some creative way.  My magic show based in St Paul and Minneapolis is full of unusual and original tricks. I also present the show in a original way with lots of comedy that I came up with over the years.

I love to teach the creative process to others so I go to conventions and teach. This year so far in NYC, Atlanta and Mystic, CT.

The convention organizers also like to invite a magician who does an original act so the others gathered can see something fresh and new.  So many magicians do the same 25 tricks that the other magicians are doing and people see them over and over. So I strive to be unique in presentation or method.

I recently received an order for my third DVD for professionals and the fellow had my first two.  His comment, "I have your other DVDs and they are awesome! Just right for my character!!" 

I am glad to be able to encourage other performers to change up their shows and add new comedy material. It is fun to be recognized by my peers.
