Parks and Recreation Departments in local towns. A lot maintain the playgrounds in their town.
If you get on it now before they fill up you can probably cut a deal where you travel to playgrounds and entertain the kids for short money. You don't hav…

Jason, Well, I myself am still learning everything about Magic...even after performing Magic for 38 years and counting. You see Magic is not only a livelihood, but it is in fact...a way of life. In order for you to succeed you must put in the time t…

I heard you say you don't do many balloons. I added them just for filler time and now get a lot of work just doing balloons. They also helped me establish myself and led to more work.
In my State the town recreation departments put on summer shows f…
Laflin recently put out a set of four headless silks. Circus ones. They are $70.00 to $75.00 a set and you might want to look into them. Now that I saw it with a real kid I've got to get one as soon as I can. Thanks for posting the picture!
Make sure the cake and ice cream is served AFTER your show. It not only helps you avoid a sticky mess on your props, it also insures the kids disappear when you're done, instead of hanging around and handling your stuff.

There are lots of stage effects out there for photo ops. Mike Bent's Big Bag o Bunny shown in Mark's post works, along with Bob's suggestion for the rabbit wand. I use Creative Magic's Bigger wands where the birthday child is holding a seven foot wa…

Mark you hit the nail on the head. I actually use the Ickle Pickle rabbit wand and a few other type items like this. I finish off my show by bringing the birthday child and the parents or parent and create some balloons for them then they all pose a…
Jason, The easiest way to create a Photo-op is to have the Birthday Child assist you with an effect. Perhaps give him a wand to wave as you both say the Magic Words. Have the parents clued in as to when to take the picture. There are many other ways…

- Jason, You posted this question... "Trying to figure out how to perform at my school i have no idea can anyone help?"
I'm going to presume that you are in Middle School or perhaps have just started High School. Either way, you can ask your school if the have a theater class. If so, perhaps you can join and practice your Magic on their stage. Maybe your school offers after school activities...such as Clubs. Perhaps you can find a teacher who would 'champion' a Magic Club. I would think that other students may share your passion for Magic...ask around a find a session buddy. Talent Shows are another way to showcase your Magic...sign up to perform if any are offered.
Best Magical Regards,
Mark Williams
