COVID19 Update

For the moment it looks like we are taking a break from in person live entertainment. But that doesn’t mean the magic has to stop. For everyone who is isolating and social distancing at home, we have put together a virtual magic program using the free video chat software ZOOM to bring the magic to you.

Unlike most live-streamed entertainment, this is a personalized interactive experience just for you and the family and friends you want to invite. No leaving comments or muting your microphone. You get to be part of the magic all the way through.


Or if you’d just like something to watch and enjoy, here is a full performance of my show, Magic & Martini, filmed with a live audience at Suite 114 in Toronto in November of 2018. We will leave the video up to enjoy as long as social distancing guidelines are in effect.

Produced by Chris Mayhew. Special thanks to Carisa Hendrix (aka Lucy Darling) for giving us the idea!

Magic & Martini - Now at the Storm Crow Manor

When I began performing Magic & Martini in 2016, I thought it would run for a few months. Now, over three years later, we have had over 175 sold out performances at venues in Toronto, Oakville, Mississauga and Grand Valley. I’m now thrilled to announce the start of our fourth season at Toronto’s famous Storm Crow Manor.

Inside this meticulously decorated sci-fi and fantasy themed bar, we have an intimate space - The Black Lodge Room - which is perfect for magic. To go with the show, there is a menu full of food & drinks inspired by Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Star Trek, Star Wars, Dungeons & Dragons and more! There is even a chance to put yourselves in the hands of fate and let a roll of the dice decide what cocktail you receive or what toppings your burger will feature.
