Kirk Charles

Kirk Charles has been performing magic professionally since 1976. His two major formats are stand-up comedy magic and walk-around magic. The stand-up show is designed for formal events like banquets and keynote presentations. Walk-around magic is designed for informal situations like cocktail parties, picnics, receptions, open houses, and hospitality suites. He is the author of the The Complete Guide to Restaurant and Walk-Around Magic and is considered by many magicians worldwide to be an expert in the field.

Because of his background in writing and theater he can create material specific to the event or organization. He can involve personalities, products or messages. He has also worked as a consultant for corporate presentations,television programs and theatrical productions. And yes, he still does birthday parties for kids!

• Kirk was sooo easy to work with, his suggestions and ideas were right on! His humor and ability to "read" our audience was incredible. We had such a wonderful response after his performance. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. He made us all laugh and his magic was divine! -- Deborah O, West Seattle, WA, 8/22/2009
• Kirk was very professional and very easy to work with. He arrived early at the event, which was nice since it was held at an out of the way location, and he came completely prepared to entertain. He was also very willing to adapt his performance per the needs of the event. He was funny, warm, and engaging and his magic tricks left many baffled! I would highly recommend Kirk to anyone looking for solid entertainment and fun magic. -- Allison C, Marysville, WA, 7/18/2009
• Kirk was prompt, clear and thoughtful in all correspondence prior to the show. He turned up in good time as he had promised. He performed only walk around magic as he mingled easily with the folks at my wife's 40th birthday party in a challenging environment at a billiard hall. I heard nothing but laughter, wonderment and applause from each small group that he started to perform for. His technical skill was truly impressive and his low key personality fit well with all the different personality types in our group. My wife thought he was fabulous and I would highly recommend him to anyone. -- Mark H, Seattle, WA, 8/6/2011
