EDIT!!! UNDER CONSTRUCTION!!!!
Old craigslist Ad from years ago:
Afraid you'll end up hiring an awkward entertainer or someone who just won't listen to you for your next event, restaurant entertainment, motivational speech, or corporate event??
What if they're full of talk about 'Entertaining' but have nothing to back it up other than a few cheap tricks and sleights?
With Steve, you won't have to worry about any of this and we can focus on your party, gathering, event, etc.
Let's face it...Entertainment boils down to "making people happy". A very complex question in the chaos of life, but thankfully this entertainer has done his homework and knows what really creates long-lasting happiness.
Micheal Fordyce, one of the pioneers in scientific research on the subject of happiness published his findings in "Human Happiness: Its Nature & Attainment", which was a free online book until he unfortunately passed away a few years ago. Steve studied this book vigorously in 2011 & still has a copy that he uses to ensure his close-up magic is exactly what you want when you hear 'entertainment'.
Later on, around 1998, the field of "Positive Psychology" gained momentum and has confirmed these findings once again & strives to put it to practical application. One of the many aspects leading to wellbeing is finding meaning and purpose in life, and another is developing strong supportive social relationships with friends, family, & significant others.
Close-Up magic (when done correctly) is one of the ideal ways to facilitate building strong bonds with those around you AND giving meaning to those relationships. The problem with big stage or stand up shows is that it creates that invisible "wall" between performer and audience and offers very little interaction with the individual audience members or their friends. Yet, that's one of the crucial aspects to happiness & building closer connections!! (i.e. Have you ever tried explaining one of those "You had to be there" moments? )
Steve has been studying magic for over 10 years, and is also passionate about facilitating strong bonds between the people at your event in a positive, cheerful atmosphere. He has studied the art of relationships through books such as "It's not all about me" by FBI agent Robin Dreeke, "How to Win Friends & Influence People" by Dale Carnegie, and "The Relationship Cure" by John Gottman, PhD. Combined with his skills in misdirection and knowledge of what really contributes to happiness & well-being, you can be assured that the magic will leave people feeling better for having come to your event. If this sounds like something you want, don't be shy to contact Steve today.
