Three Different Styles Of Magic To Make Your Event Unforgettable!

Up Close Interactive Magic

Are you looking for corporate party entertainment? One of the important factors in creating a really special event is to make sure that your guests start having fun right away…minutes after they arrive. You’ll be delighted as you hear the gasps of amazement and laughter as your guests are entertained with their own 5 to 7 minute shows which include super fun magic that happens in their own hands. This enchanting, fun, and intimate form of “walk around” entertainment is perfect for cocktail parties or as before dinner entertainment. It will leave the lasting impression you desire.

These Are The Kinds of Memories That Your Guests Are Going To Remember Forever!

stage comedy magic show

Should this much fun be banned? “The After Dinner Show” is a 45 minute stage show that includes baffling demonstrations of magic and illusion, comedy, E.S.P., pick-pocketing, tons of audience interaction, plus… “Let’s Burn A Deal” An audience member signs her $100 dollar bill and places it inside an envelope to be mixed up with other envelopes. She picks one and the others a burnt to a crisp. She discovers that she has selected the wrong envelope and her money is burnt. This is funny to watch her reaction throughout the show. The signed bill reappears in the back of the room at the end of the performance to everyone’s amazement (and the woman’s delight).

Testimonials

~

David was the highlight of our market. Everyone (attendees, managers, executives, hotel staff, etc.) was absolutely enthralled with his street magic, and came back for more during the evening show. We can’t thank him enough. From day one he put us at ease with great communication and attention to detail, and then truly shined as he engaged our customers and kept them in the showroom wanting to see more.

I can’t say enough about David. We hired him for a corporate event AND for a separate fundraiser event and he hit the ball out of the park! Not only are his magic tricks amazing (i.e. mind-blowing!), he is such a great guy and very personable. Great jokes to boot…. and the crowd loved him.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is David Farr able to entertain people who don't speak English?

Thankfully, magic is very universally appealing to all walks of life! Although your non-english speaking guests may not totally understand every funny joke David makes, they’ll still be thoroughly entertained and amazed by what they see!

Does David perform outside of the Minneapolis St. Paul area?

Yes, even though David is based in Minneapolis, MN, he travels to all parts of Minnesota as well as the upper midwest in cities such as Des Moines, IA, Fargo, ND, Sioux Falls, SD and Madison, WI. You may have been looking for a magician near me when searching online but keep in mind David Farr will travel!

What do we need to provide you on our end?

What is needed varies based on the type of entertainment being provided. If you go with a strolling/close up magic package, where David is merely strolling through your event and entertaining the guests, there are virtually no additional requirements. Everything David needs he comes prepared with in his pockets ready to entertain when he arrives at the event. For the stage show packages, there are some important requirements that are needed in order for a successful performance. 1. If David is the only performer with equipment on the stage (besides a podium), then we recommend a stage at least 12′ x 8′ and at least 6 inches off the floor. Depending on how high the stage is, stairs might also be required as there is fun audience participation throughout the performance. In cases where David’s equipment would be sharing the stage with other performer(s), a larger stage me be necessary or other special considerations. 2. In most cases, David will provide his own sound system unless it’s a performance that requires air travel. In this case, we’ll also need a professional sound system setup and monitored throughout the performance. The best type of mic is a headset mic known as a “country man”. It is wireless and hands free. We also need an an input for an iPod for sound effects. Once again, most of the time David provides his own professional sound system. Please keep in mind that you still may have AV needs yourself and still may want to ask your venue to provide a microphone to show a presentation, announce winners, give speeches, etc. 3. In regards to lighting, we have no specific needs but do recommend not having your event too dark because it becomes more difficult for your guests to experience the amazing magic when they are struggling to see what’s happening.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept checks, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and PayPal. You may pay securely online using PayPal or our Secure Payment Page. If paying with check, please make check payable to “David Farr

Is David able to entertain while people are eating?

Technically yes but we really don’t recommend it. By the nature of the entertainment, your guests participate in the magic and are often asked to help out. This is sometimes difficult when people are eating. And also it’s hard to “watch closely” when you’re enjoying dinner. This applies to all packages, strolling and stage shows.

Will this embarrass or offend anyone?

We’re proud to say that absolutely NO ONE is embarrassed in any way. We’ve heard many horror stories of how other entertainers have completely offended guests in the audience with off color jokes and remarks. David Farr’s entertainment is completely G-Rated and never relies on entertaining people by making fun or laughing at people. “We’re not laughing at you, we’re laughing with you…”

What kind of room set up do you need for the stage show?

Typically having the stage setup against a wall having all of your guests seated in front and as close as possible (this helps provide a more intimate feeling). Guests that are seated directly to either side of the stage or behind, have TERRIBLE seats and therefore it’s best to avoid that. A space that can comfortably seat all of your guests without having them on the sides or behind the stage is best. Also watch out for those huge annoying beams right in the middle of some rooms. Please take into consideration your guests so they don’t get stuck behind one of them and miss out on the fun. See the example room diagram below. Optionally, you can request “pipe and drape” for the stage which basically serves as the backdrop of the performance and gives it a nice feel.

What size audiences can David entertain?

David’s entertainment is best suited for small to medium size crowds. David entertains groups as intimate as 10 people all the way up to 500 guests in a ballroom. If you have a large group (200 or more), the use of projection screens makes the show even more enjoyable for your guests. Talk to your venue or contact a local audio/video company with questions to further explore that option.

When I first heard that a magician was going to be the entertainment for a holiday gathering, I was skeptical. David Farr put on an amazing show that was interactive and truly mind boggling. We liked it so much we hired him to do a magic show for a family member's 60th birthday party. This second show was even better than the first and everyone enjoyed themselves. David Farr is a true entertainer and how he does the magic he performs is truly remarkable!
David engaged our group well and was very entertaining!
My office hired David Farr for our Company Holiday party and he exceeded our expectations! His act is amazing and he kept us all guessing! Highly recommend!
Normally, when someone says, 'We're hiring a magician for the Christmas party,' you brace yourself for awkward card tricks and forced laughs. But David Farr had our entire team gasping, laughing, and genuinely wondering if he had some sort of wizard. His tricks were mind-blowing, his humor was spot on, and even the most skeptical 'I’ve-seen-it-all' folks in the room were completely enchanted. If you're looking for magic that's anything but lame, David Farr is your guy.
Response from the owner: Thanks so much Jonathan for your very kind words. I had an absolute blast with you folks at the Lafayette Club near Lake Minnetonka. It was a cold day in MN but it was warm and magical inside at the New Horizon event! Thanks again Jonathan!
David is so amazing! He performed at our company holiday party and his magic tricks were out of this world! He had everyone in awe!! I highly recommend him!
Response from the owner: Thanks! I love graduation season and the performances I get to do. It is such a fun time of the year and there is always so much excitement at the open houses and parties I get to perform at.
Our company recently had the absolute pleasure of experiencing an entire evening of enchantment with the incredibly talented David Farr. From his mesmerizing strolling magic before dinner to his mind-blowing after-dinner show, David transformed our gathering into an unforgettable celebration of wonder and delight.During the pre-dinner portion of the evening, David’s strolling magic was nothing short of extraordinary. Moving seamlessly from group to group, he dazzled us with close-up illusions that defied logic. With impossibly disappearing cards that seemed to teleport right before our eyes, every trick was performed with impeccable skill and an infectious charm. He effortlessly broke the ice, sparking conversation and laughter among our guests, setting the perfect tone for the night.After dinner, David took center stage for a performance that can only be described as magical perfection. With a blend of humor, storytelling, mentalism, and jaw-dropping illusions, he had the entire room hanging on his every word and gesture. Each act was more astonishing than the last, leaving us alternately laughing, gasping, and applauding with sheer amazement. His ability to engage the audience was remarkable—he didn’t just perform for us; he made us part of the magic.David Farr is not just a magician; he is an artist of wonder, an architect of unforgettable memories. Whether dazzling up close or commanding the stage, he brings an energy and professionalism that elevates any event. If you’re looking for a unique way to make your next gathering truly extraordinary, do yourself a favor and book David Farr. He turned our evening into pure magic, and we cannot recommend him enough! ✨🎩

I hired David to perform at my wife's birthday party since she's been asking to see him literally for years. He did NOT disappoint!

Highly, highly recommend David!
