“A lifetime of “thank
yous” for a
lifetime of incredible
memories! That is what Gary Goodman’s
most exciting
and fascinating show has provided to
all my guests and
most importantly to my son and our family!
You are a
first class act!
A very special combination of a
brilliant
magician
and entertainer as well as the most
organized,
professional and honest business man
I have ever worked with. We were so
honored to have you perform at our son’s
13th Birthday…The evening was
so magical from your incredible illusions!”

“So many of the guests
were impressed with
your expertise as well as being amused
and entertained. It was wonderful that you
were able to make your way to literally every
individual in the room throughout the evening’s
festivities. The best part was that for those
who sat and are not generally considered dancers,
you being there made the party so much more
fun for them. We do not hesitate for one moment
to recommend you.
Not only because you have a tremendous gift
in your magic, but also because of your
wonderful personality and the way you
were able to mix with everyone both young
and old.”

“The Grand
Illusion Show was just fabulous. Jake
really loved being a part of your act. It
really made him feel special. It was wonderful
for me, as the host, to watch all my guests
gather around and really enjoy themselves
as you mesmerized them
with your illusions. Thank you for helping
to make this occasion one that Jake will never
forget."

“Your performance at
Jeremy’s Bar Mitzvah was “par
excellence”!
Jeremy’s PRODUCTION
ILLUSION ENTRANCE was spectacular!
Our friends and relatives are still talking
about what a great time they had and what
a wonderful addition the Illusionist was to
the evening. Thank you for truly making it
a “Magical” Evening.”

If you are looking for a performer with over 25 years
of experience, impeccable reputation and the
finely-tuned skills of an engaging magician, you must
call South Florida Magician Gary Goodman!
| Sleight-of-hand/Strolling Magic |
| Add a ‘spark’ to
your special magical evening! |
| Gary keeps the teens busy during the cocktail
hour with his cutting edge SLEIGHT-OF-HAND
MAGIC. Performing at bar/bat mitzvahs for
the last twenty years has given him the experience
to know what really works for this sometimes challenging
group. Gary knows it takes more than just knowing
how to do a few card tricks. He is a seasoned entertainer
who makes each illusion unique
and intriguing to the audience. Gary immediately
wins over his audience as he makes everyone feel
at ease. Listen for the screams and shrieks
of amazement when he reads minds, makes a
volunteer’s signed playing card appear folded
in his shoe, or makes the magic happen right in
their very own hands. |
| Time To Enter the Ballroom |
| The Magic continues… |
| Gary follows your guests into the
ballroom and continues entertaining the young adults
until the family’s grand entrance. This is
also a good time for Gary to start mingling with
some of the adults as everyone is waiting for the
party to officially begin. The adults enjoy Gary’s
magic as much as the teens. |
| Let’s Party! Let’s
do more magic… |
 |
Time
to start making your guests laugh and be amazed
at their tables.
There are always adults and kids who are not
dancing. Gary approaches table one and does
3-5 minutes of unbelievable magic and then
moves on to table two, etc... He keeps making
the rounds for another two hours. Everyone
looks forward to what Gary is going to bring
to their table next. It’s
always something new and even more exciting
than the last mini-miracle. Gary is
always told by his clients how much fun their
guests had at their party and how much they
enjoyed the magician. Be prepared to answer,
“Where did you find him?” |

| THE DINNER SHOW |
| Comedy Magic with the “Mitzvah”
Child and Grand Illusions |
 |
The
party has been rocking and rolling for a good
hour or so and now the adults are being served
their main entrée. Of course the kids
have finished in 5 minutes and are looking
for something to do. Perfect time for the
MC to say, “Ladies and Gentlemen, all
eyes on the dance floor…IT’S
SHOW TIME!” Gary and his female
assistant enter and perform one of his signature
illusions…The ZIG-ZAG
(visit www.garygoodman.com
to see performance description and video). |
|
Gary has performed this illusion during half time
at several Miami Heat
games with fifteen thousand
people surrounding him. Your adult guests as well
as the teenagers won’t believe their eyes.
This is something you would normally see on
television or on a Las
Vegas stage. |
 |
The
show now continues with large well-tested
COMEDY STAGE MAGIC
using the mitzvah child as the volunteer.
A sibling or best friend can even be included
into the program.
|
|
The show concludes
with another Grand Illusion…The “Harry
Houdini” TRUNK ESCAPE (visit www.garygoodman.com
to see description and performance video).
The 15 - 20 minute (2) GRAND ILLUSION performance
will include THE NEW EUROPEAN ZIG ZAG, THE HARRY
HOUDINI TRUNK ESCAPE, female assistant and stage
technician. |
| GRAND ENTRANCE PRODUCTION ILLUSION |
This one-of-a-kind illusion
is reserved only for the family that is looking
for something totally
UNIQUE AND SURPRISING. |
 |
Picture
this…everyone has entered the ballroom.
The MC announces everyone to please take their
seats.
He then says, “Everyone please rise.”
He
introduces the family. “Everyone put
your hands
together for (name of child)!” Everyone
looks to
the doorway you just entered through but there
is
no guest of honor.
This is a major dramatic moment in the party.
The
DJ says, “Let
the magic begin!” In the corner
of
the ballroom, behind self standing black curtains |
|
(provided by Gary), Gary and his assistant wheel
a mysterious looking cabinet
to the center of the dance floor. Extremely
energetic music is playing in the background.
Gary Goodman and his female assistant suddenly appear
with two colorful boxes,
one box nesting within the other. They spin
them around. Gary and his assistant first lift the
yellow box and show this to the audience to be completely
empty. The yellow box is then placed back on the
black base and the yellow box top is opened. They
reach inside and pull out the red box which has
at all times been seen sitting inside the yellow
box. The red box is shown to be completely empty
and solid, all sides including the bottom. The red
box is now placed back
inside the yellow box, both lids are closed. The
chests are now spun around and instantly the guest
of honor makes his magical appearance.
You will hear screams and cheers form all the guests!!!
