A Magical Moment at a Birthday Party in Erdenheim, PA
This past weekend, I performed at a birthday party in Erdenheim, PA, and let me tell you—it was full of excitement and surprises! One of the most memorable moments came during one of my most popular tricks, where balls appear and multiply seemingly out of thin air. Everything was going smoothly, until one boy suddenly shouted, “Freeze!”
Now, I love it when kids are paying close attention, but this boy was absolutely convinced he had caught me making a sneaky move with my left hand. “I saw it!” he said. I decided to play along. With my right hand held high, I froze in place for 10 seconds, then 30 seconds… a full minute went by, and the tension in the room was building.
Finally, I asked him, “What do you think is in my right hand?”
He laughed and shouted, “The ball!” The other kids quickly agreed.
So, I slowly—very slowly—began walking toward them, lowering my right hand as if in slow motion. “Watch this hand very closely,” I said, “so that nothing sneaky happens.” All eyes were locked on my hand.
Then, to their complete surprise, I opened my hand to reveal not one, but two balls! The room erupted in laughter and amazement.
“How did you do that?” “That’s not possible!” Even the birthday girl exclaimed, “What the—?!”
It was a moment of pure magic, and the best part? They thought they had caught me, but the magic still won in the end. I love it when kids challenge me—it makes the experience even more fun and memorable for everyone.
Fun Magic Fact:
Magic tricks involving multiplying objects, like my multiplying balls, are all about timing, sleight of hand, and misdirection. The key is to make the audience look exactly where you want them to, so they’re focused on one thing while the real magic is happening elsewhere!
Behind-the-Scenes Insight:
One of the joys of performing for kids is how involved they get in the magic. They’re always watching closely, ready to catch you if you slip up—so when a trick like this works perfectly, it adds an extra layer of excitement. Whether I’m performing in Erdenheim, Lansdale, or Hatboro, these are the moments that make each show unforgettable!
