Services




Strolling Magic & Mentalism
Jacob goes from group to group while your guests mingle, so the magic is intimate and interactive, happening right in their own hands. He might reveal the name of a guest's childhood best friend, then have the card they signed appear under their watch.
It's the easiest icebreaker you can book and a great way to warm up a crowd, a natural fit for cocktail hours, receptions, holiday parties, networking events, and weddings.




Stage Show
Jacob specializes in mind reading built on the people in the room. In the stage show he might name a guest's brother and the day he was born, or the PIN code someone is only thinking of, and dozens of people end up part of the show. Audiences today have watched so much magic and mentalism on social media that Jacob builds every show around what they can't find in a feed, moments about their own lives and thoughts, said out loud in front of everyone they came with. Since all of it comes from whoever is in the room that night, your guests get an experience that has never been performed before and never will be again.
Jacob will work with you to create a completely customized show that fits your room and your timeslot, whether it's a high-end living room party with no stage or a theater for thousands. It's a perfect fit for galas, awards nights, conferences, company parties, and dinners where guests are seated and ready to watch.
“I've done magic show live shots, and I'm usually able to figure it out. This is the first time I have no idea.”

Turn foot traffic into a crowd.
Getting people to stop is the hardest part of any activation, and a brand activation magician is built for that job. Jacob moves around your space with the magic happening in guests' own hands, and a small crowd tends to form around whoever it's happening to. Your team gets a warm, easy opening for a conversation with people who are already smiling.
If the activation has a program or a seated moment, a full show gives the whole room one thing to share. Audiences have seen so much magic online that the moments they remember are about their own lives and thoughts, which is what Jacob's mind reading is built on. He will fit the performance to your timeslot and your space, and it pairs naturally with product launch entertainment or a cocktail hour for clients.
