Description

"Mike! That's just amazing. WOW. You know what, from now on, whenever I'm amazed by something I'll just go, Mike Jacobson!" - Ellen DeGeneres. Basically, my goal is to do magic that doesn't suck! I want to make you look awesome- I want your guests to laugh until they cry and have to pick their jaws up off the floor (assuming the floor is clean, of course).

I offer 100% MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE. I'm confident that you and your guests will LOVE my entertainment. And if you don't, it's totally on me. If you'd like to check me out before booking, I'm performing at the Magic Castle this Thursday and Friday! If you'd like to go, let me know and I'll put you on my guest list. No pressure at all.

THE CLIFF NOTES TO MY BACKGROUND

Alright so I know you're busy, so I'll keep it short. I was going to write this in the 3rd person but then thought this might be a little more personal. That's my style! I'm 23 years old, and a ten year, award-winning member of the Magic Castle. I'm one of the youngest people ever admitted as a member. I'm the highest rated magician on the Yelp review site in the entire USA (please check out the reviews!). I've performed in London, Poland, Spain, France, and Ecuador and I'm a Magic Castle Junior Achievement award winner; an award for excellence in performance amongst up and coming magicians in the world.

WHAT SETS ME APART?

My goal is honestly to do more than just perform, but to help bring the party. That's why I do magic- because I love to help people have an awesome time. Since I'm younger than most magicians, I've been told I bring an energy to the room, and your party, that not many of the older magicians can. I do so by just being real with people- through comedy and contemporary magic. I think the classic magician with old stories & a top hat is a little outdated! I connect with your guests so they TRULY enjoy themselves & you're known as THE best party host.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:

"Mike is not only an amazing magician- he is warm, charming and charismatic. The party went from memorable to unforgettable due in large part to Mike's presence! He is terrific!"
-Jan & Don Elliott, Menlo Park, CA.

"His magic was great for small groups too and was infinitely creative. He did an iPhone trick was amazing and a nice update on the typical card tricks you run into."
-Jake Meyer, LA, CA

"I feel like usually you get just a funny guy, or just a good magician- but he's an amazing mix of the two. So personable, so kind, and really helped make my event a hit."
-Josh Faryab, Brentwood, CA

"To get a magician with great tricks (sorry "effects") I feel like you're destined to have to put up with a power-nerd, complete cheese ball, or total creeper. Not this guy. Mike probably has a future in stand up comedy if he decides to quit magic."
-Brendan Harper, Hermosa Beach, CA


If you have any questions at all, or would like a pass to the Magic Castle, feel free to give me a call (or an email)!

Thank you.
~Mike

Feedback

  • I honestly cannot imagine a better, more fun, more professional performer. I've hired two different magicians in the past who seemed great on the phone, but were either awkward or frankly, boring, in person. Mike on the other hand, was just an all around awesome magician and guy. Someone I'd want to invite to the party anyway, you know? -- Randee P, Los Angeles, CA, 8/27/2011
  • Thank you so much for making my daughter's engagement party such a blast! I am so glad I went with you. Your magic was incredible and you were hilarious...and just, real. Loved that iPhone trick. So many people came up to me after complimenting me on the party, and I have to say, I think I owe a lot of that to you. Thank you! -Renessa -- Renessa A, Los Angeles, CA, 12/2/2011
  • Magic Mike was a real class act! Thanks to his magic he made my event a truly magical evening. He fit right in with the crowd and everybody loved him and said he was really good. I liked the way he worked the crowd and brought smiles to so many faces. We definitely will want to hire him again for our next big event! -- Linda H, Gardena, CA, 12/24/2008
  • Magic Mike was a a great addition to my father's 50th birthday party. I wasn't sure how well people would react to a magician being hired for a grown man's party, but he stole the show! He made everyone laugh, smile, or looking for their wallet!! He is an amazing magician, and he is also very fun. He came in to a party full of strangers and just mingled like he knew everyone there. I would recommend Mike to anyone for any kind of event. -- Chanda M, Riverside, CA, 3/26/2011
  • I cannot imagine what my party would've been like without Mike!! He took our party to the next level. He had so much energy and charisma, and his magic was absolutely AMAZING. It was so much more entertaining, funny, and refreshing than anything I've ever seen. I think my party will be remembered for a long time, due in good part to Mike. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat. -- Peter J, Los Angeles, CA, 1/9/2010
  • Excellent!!! Everyone who witnessed Mike was blown away by his talent. Mike was very professional, but also funny. He had us laughing and in disbelief with his magical skills. Even people who tried to figure out how the trick was done, was amazed how he pulled it off. I would highly recommend him!!! -- June S, Long Beach, CA, 8/29/2009
  • Mike was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! His magic was UNBELIEVABLE!!! He is funny and entertaining. Every one of our guests came up and told me how much they enjoyed his performance. He was a pleasure to deal with when working out the details for our party and is extremely professional. I highly recommend him - he is top notch!! -- Erin B, Hawthorne, CA, 6/18/2011
  • I cannot imagine another magician doing a better job of entertaining my guests, age range 9-70, at the cocktail party I recently had at my home. Mike moved from each small cluster of guests performing close-up magic and conversing with them in a most congenial and friendly manner. EVERYONE of my guests told me how much they enjoyed his entertainment. Aside from that, he was most professional about getting the information he needed from me prior to the engagement and was punctual. And compared to a few other quotes that I got from other magicians for the same type of entertainment, Mike fit into my budget easily. I recommend Mike without hesitation. -- Marc D, Marina Del Rey, CA, 7/11/2009
  • Mike was GREAT !!! Very professional and the magic was great. He mixed in with all the guests and they all had a great time. All the kids were watching in amazement. We will definitely have Mike back at another party. -- Doug S, Upland, CA, 10/24/2009
  • Mike was the hit of the night!!! Fun, respectful and professional to say the least. He worked our party guests (70 in total) with ease and amazement to all. I will call on him again in the future. Dr A -- Dr. Omer A, Encinitas, CA, 12/13/2008
  • Mike was truly amazing! He blew away my guests and I will definitely hire him for future events. -- Christyne B, Beverly Hills, CA, 12/1/2010
  • Mike was excellent, funny and very talented. We would use him again in an instant! He kept our guests excited and intrigued! Thank you! -- Naushad H, Los Angeles, CA, 11/20/2010
  • Magic Mike arrived on time and was a big hit among the 60 guests. -- Arnie W, Pacific Palisades, CA, 2/13/2011
  • He came early, left late, and kept everyone laughing and in awe the entire time. What more could I ask for? He made me look amazing. Thanks Mike! -- Carly B, Santa Monica, CA, 8/28/2011
  • Thanks Magic Mike, everyone enjoyed your magic at our 2010 Company Holiday Party. -- Carolyn N, Newport Beach, CA, 12/5/2010
