Stop! How to Recognize a Master Magician in Boston?
Hiring a Magician in Boston Massachusetts
Comparing Magicians — Keep the Field Level
How do you judge the abilities of the person you are hiring? Would you know the difference between a semi‑pro and a full‑time professional? Probably not. Some of our best magical inventors and performers were not full‑time professionals. What do they have in common? A full‑time study of their craft and endless practice of their show.
Not Everyone is an Expert in Every Field
Nobody likes a know‑it‑all, so why trust a “do‑it‑all”? Would you trust a doctor who was a G.P., orthopedic surgeon, proctologist, and dentist? Do you really believe so many magicians can be experts in every field? There are a few who can do it all, (Jeff McBride), but you can count them on one hand.
What are you to do? Check the websites. Read the testimonials. Watch the videos. See for yourself if there is any evidence that your magician will meet your needs. They don’t need to be an expert in every field — just the best fit for your event.
Corporate Magician — Boston Massachusetts
Do you want a children’s magician for an adult event? Probably not. Did you know some magicians will accept any job regardless of their qualifications? That’s not good for you, or for magic in general. It may seem unfair that I’m putting the responsibility on you, the client — but here’s my best advice:
- See video footage of each magician you consider for your event.
- Ensure the video represents the type of entertainment you’re looking for.
- Watch the audience reactions — you’ll clearly see what you can expect for your guests.
- Read verified reviews — not ones written by the magician themselves.
