What It's Actually Like When a Magician Shows Up to Your Bachelor or Bachelorette Party

You booked something different for the group. You like magic and want to freak out with your freinds. Here is what that night actually looks like.

Arriving

Gerald knocks and walks in, and the room is almost always split into two camps. Half the group has no idea who this stranger is and why they are suddenly in the middle of the Airbnb living room. The other half knows exactly what is happening and is already hyped.

The show itself

From there, the night moves into close-up magic using the things people already have on them, rings, cards, coins, phones, whatever is in someone's pocket or on someone's hand. This magic happening a few feet away, sometimes in someone's actual hands. Mind reading gets worked in too, which tends to be where the room gets the loudest. It just does not make sense, and that is the point.

The whole thing builds toward a finale that hits harder than anything before it, A piece of magic that happens in everyone's hands! 

How groups show up to it
Every group brings its own energy, and that is part of what makes this format fun. One bachelor party turned the whole night into a hangout, less like a scheduled performance and more like a friend who happened to know incredible magic had joined the group for the evening. A bachelorette party once had the entire group dressed as wizards for the occasion, which made an already strange and wonderful night even better. The show adjusts to whatever the group brings.

Timing

The actual performance runs about 45 minutes, but Gerald typically stays around for a full hour. After the show, it turns into a conversation. People have never met a magician before, so they usually have a couple questions. A few photos, Gerald heads out, and the party carries on from there, usually with a lot more energy than it had when he arrived.

Why groups book this

A bachelor or bachelorette weekend already has a full itinerary of drinking, hanging out, maybe a hike or a hot tub. What this adds is one specific hour where the entire group is locked into the same moment together, laughing, gasping, and trying to figure out what just happened. It is not a distraction from the party, it is the part of the party people end up talking about the most.
