LAS VEGAS & TOURING
TOP TEN REASONS WHY JAMES BRANDON IS YOUR ANSWER IF THE QUESTION IS, “SHOULD I HIRE A COMEDY MAGICIAN FOR MY NEXT CORPORATE EVENT?”
Magic + Comedy = Success!
Combining the powerful presentation of an award-winning magician and the laughs of a stand-up comedian create a unique and surprising performance.
Blend that with safe and hilarious audience participation and each show becomes a fresh and original experience that everyone at your next private or corporate event will love!
Better than a Corporate Comedian
Corporate event comedians can be effective but too often step over the line or reuse dated material and can fail to build a connection to the audience. Since James tailors his comedy based on his interactions with the audience, everyone is in on the joke as they see the hysterical scenarios unfold right before their eyes.
Better than a Corporate Magician
Some magicians and mentalists come across as though their main objective is to try and fool the audience. James decided long ago that instead of pitting himself against the audience he would much rather work with them to build an entertaining and joyous experience.
Safe for All Audiences
With decades of experience in the corporate entertainment market, James knows never to do material that is political, sexual, racial or religious so that all of his shows, corporate events or private parties, are safe for EVERY type of group, young and old alike.
Great Production Value
James Brandon’s Grand Illusion Show spent years touring the world with truckloads of magic, props and scenery. In recent years he has worked hard to scale his private and corporate magic shows so that your audience will get high-quality entertainment without all of the manpower, physical footprint and complications that are indicative of an elaborate production and the savings are passed on to you. All of his props and costumes are custom designed and tailored to his unique shows and the music is specially chosen and edited to create a truly festive and upbeat experience.
Professional and Experienced
James has performed in over 30 countries, 100’s of television shows and in every type of performing venue so there are very few situations he has not come across and tackled. Whatever might arise, James will work with you and your team to make sure everyone emerges victorious. That is probably why most of his corporate event clients are repeat customers.
Customized Magic Routines
James Brandon is considered to be a true original in the magic industry. He is responsible for designing and building some of the most iconic effects in the history of magical entertainment. For this reason he has many clever ways to integrate your logos, messages and products into some or all of his magic routines.
Affordable Pricing
James Brandon’s successes in Show Business could easily cause buyers to brace themselves for astronomical pricing but he prides himself in being able to work within almost any budget so you can bring his unique magical entertainment to your next corporate event. With your next call you'll be able to secure world-class entertainment at local prices.
Energetic and Enthusiastic
James has a relaxed and reassuring demeanor prior to the show but when the lights come up he bursts onto the stage with electrifying exuberance. No matter how big or small your group is James performs every show as if it's the most important one of his career and yours. Remember that when the audience applauds for him they are really thanking YOU.
Star Power Yes, Diva No
James Brandon has all the charisma and gravitas of the seasoned professional that he is but rest assured that his main priority is the overall success of your special event. You will find him to be extremely accommodating and abundantly calm. His refreshingly down-to-earth attitude and friendly personality not only helps offstage but clearly comes across on stage as well.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What got you interested in performing Magic Shows?
As a successful radio personality my father interviewed many fascinating people when I was a kid. One of whom was a Canadian magician named Doug Henning. Doug was promoting his new Broadway Magic Musical. It was just before I turned 12 and my family was invited to see the show. I loved all the magic and I couldn’t stop talking about it so my sister got me a starter set for my birthday gift. For the next few years my dad would drive me just about anywhere just so I could do a $10 show. By the time I was 16 I was performing at nightclubs practicing the act I took to Europe as soon as I graduated from high school. (MORE).
Who is the Greatest Magician of All Time?
Naturally any answer is going to be subjective however I’ve always thought that David Copperfield had the best mix of production, style and humor in his presentations. As for the most famous magician of all time, Harry Houdini’s name will forever be synonymous with great magic.
Is the Best Entertainment for a Company Party really Magic and Comedy?
Magic and clean comedy is a great icebreaker for any type of event where people are hoping to have a fun and upbeat shared experience. Not only is the Magic compelling but when it’s blended with hilarious comedy it’s a winning combination for every kind of audience.
What is Strolling Close Up Magic?
Strolling magic is where the magician interacts with just a few people at a time as he moves group-to-group or table-to-table. The magician provides micro miracles in a close up and personal way using small or borrowed items and lots of good-natured humor. A professional magician does not interrupt a group while they are actively in the middle of conversation but rather moves steadily to the guests to enhance their experience at your event.
How can Magic be used to Launch a New Product?
Using Custom Magic and Las-Vegas-Style Illusions is an extremely memorable way to launch a new product or product line into your industry. With a little lead-time I can work closely with your company to develop ideas for magic routines which will showcase your product’s features and deliver your important messaging goals.
How to Drive Traffic to a Trade Show Booth using a Magician?
Experienced trade show magicians are not just attention grabbers they are attention keepers. When I perform magic at a trade show booth I am not trying to blend in the sales folks. I am the bait so while my costumes are tasteful and professional they are also eye-catching and alluring. My job is to attract customers to your trade show booth from a distance. I do this by piquing their curiosity and satisfying their innate hope that they will see something unique on their trade show journey. I not only familiarize myself with the products and purpose of your booth but I also learn the names of my coworkers so I can introduce them to our new prospective clients as my friends. In short, I make your trade show booth stand out as I generate leads, put them in a good mood and then seamlessly hand them over to your expert team.
What sort of Consulting do you do?
I’ve been honored to do magic consulting for all the various types of entertainment industries. Music videos, television shows, films and commercials. (MORE).
Do you also Perform Magic for Private Parties and Events?
Yes, I absolutely do. I started my career as a private party entertainer and I have always enjoyed getting to connect with all of the enthusiastic folks after my performance. (MORE).
How Far will you Travel?
I have done Magic and Illusion Shows all over the world and have gone as far Santiago, Chile for a 5-minute TV spot and Bali, Indonesia to perform an 8-minute corporate icebreaker for Deutsche Bank.
Do you run a Safe Show during the Covid-19 Pandemic?
Coronavirus has hit everyone hard and people are longing for a return to normalcy. That being said, safety has always been a priority where it comes to my performances. My shows always operate with an understanding and adherence to the guidelines of our clients and venues.
Why don’t Magicians Reveal their Secrets?
Sorry but I can’t tell you that. Actually there is a fine line between sharing knowledge to pass on the great traditions of magic and exposing the secrets just to gain popularity and profit. There are magic teachers, books and online courses for people who have a calling to learn. I am against revealing secrets just to satisfy a non-magicians curiosity. Most people are disappointed with the answers anyway. The real fun is watching a Master Magician entertain and wield his or her craft with style and agility.
What Types of Things can a Magician do in a Magic Show?
Here is a List of all the Principles of Magic:
A magician can make a person, animal or thing appear by magic from out of nowhere.
A magician can make a person, animal or thing vanish by magic so that it is no longer anywhere to be seen.
A magician may cause a person, animal or thing to teleport from one place to another by using various magic techniques.
A magician can transform a person, animal or thing into something entirely different or cause it to magically change its shape or size.
A magician can perform a transposition, which will cause a person, animal or thing to change places with a different person, animal or thing.
A magician can make a person, animal or thing levitate in the air using various magic techniques and visual illusions.
A magician can restore something that was seen to have been torn, dismantled or otherwise destroyed.
A magician can cause something to penetrate another something in a way that would be impossible without the use of magic tricks or illusions.
A magician can prove knowledge of a thing that is unknowable without the use of magic techniques. These magic effects are usually performed by magicians under the banner of “mentalism”. An example would be divining the name a card someone is thinking of or the name of their childhood pet.
A magician can escape from a myriad of different types of constraints such as handcuffs, straightjackets, ropes, locks, chains and boxes. These types of routines are usually performed by magicians but can also be done by specialists called escape artists or escapologists.
