Allan Zola Kronzek Magician from Sag Harbor, NY

Whether it's a sophisticated cocktail party, a corporate affair, or a family get-together, Allan's unique brand of strolling and close-up magic will greatly add to the festivities. Close-up magic is the perfect ice-breaker: it amazes and involves people like no other entertainment. Impossibilities happen, not on a distant stage, but inches away—often in the hands of your guests. One object morphs into another. Coins seem to melt into thin air. Spectators discover their own hidden powers. And since it can be performed completely surrounded—strolling or tableside—close-up magic blends in perfectly at receptions, benefit galas, cocktail parties, or wherever friends and family gather to celebrate a special occasion. No boxes, no bunnies—just pure astonishment that your guests and clients will long remember. Allan Zola Kronzek is an author, and educator as well as a master magician.
