HELLO, STRESSED OUT STUDENTS!
IT’S THE BEST TIME OF YOUR LIFE!
It’s me, your future self, come to tell you that these are your golden years. OK, there’s no way to know if that’s true (it wasn’t for me). But I do know that you’re creating memories and experiences right now that you’ll never forget, and a big part of that is the entertainment your student activities board plans.


YOU’VE FIGURED OUT THE PROBLEM ALREADY
It’s freaking HARD to plan and execute events! Sooner or later, everyone experiences the same fear: What if this doesn’t go the way I plan? What if this event is a flop? What if the act doesn’t show up?
There’s only one way to prevent that fear from becoming reality. You have to protect yourself from boring events and cheesy entertainment with an award-winning college favorite!
My college magic shows are time-tested yet ever evolving programs that are highly engaging, relevant, and energetic!
let’s give students amazing memories
As a campus programmer in college and now a full-time college magician & speaker, I understand your goals and frustrations with putting together great programs…
My experience with campus programmers is that you are some of the most selfless peeps, and, more than anything, you care about creating memorable experiences for students!
Great events bring people together and leave incredible memories in their hearts. If you’re going to hire an entertainer, you want your audience to remember the experience way past the actual event.
I’m here to help you do exactly that!
I promise to make your concerns disappear by providing clear-cut, stress-free options for your event, and be an easy-to-work-with, anti-boring, anti-cheesy entertainer, and show up and make your event a grand slam!

VIRTUAL PROGRAMMING
“THE WIN $#!+ FROM HOME VIRTUAL GAME SHOW” – Fantastic, Brand-New Magic AND Fun, Interactive Games & Prizes for Students to Enjoy & Unwind
From your favorite comedy magician, speaker, and two-time magician of the year comes a fun, ‘customized-to-your-campus’ virtual game show. Designed specifically for a livestream audience with enticing prizes, this show is a sure-fire hit with your quarantined, sitting-at-home, give-me-something-to-do student body!
This show combines the fast paced fun of HQ Trivia, the popularity of Twitch, and incorporates some of my signature magic. When students join the party, I will entertain and set the tone with amazing sleight-of-hand — some of which aren’t even seen in my college shows. Following the magic, students will become the contestants in several game shows designed to make them feel connected, build a sense of community, and have a ton of fun! And it will all be tailored to your school, including questions about your campus, student life, and more!
Did we mention prizes? There will be prizes sent to the cleverest, the funniest, and the most knowledgeable of your students! It’s a full length program that will leave you asking yourselves… “Are you smarter than a zoombomber?”

SO THEY SAY - JOSEPH'S VIRTUAL COLLEGE SHOWS
“He did his research as the show had lots of Lawrence University trivia mixed in, and of course frequent prizes! Would do this again in a heartbeat.”

Gregory Griffin, Director of Student Activities and Greek Life
MAGIC & COMEDY program
My college magic show is designed for today’s young adults: it’ll give you lots of feels, lols, and wtfs. And it’s totally ‘grammable and ‘chattable…
My college magic show is largely based on my own experiences as a college magician and student.
Like you, I get bored easily, and I can’t stand being stagnant. I’m always developing new ideas and new magic for my show. My comedy is a result of hours of time onstage at comedy clubs. That’s why my magic is 100% preservative/gluten/hack/brooding/unfunny-free and just what you need to inject some life into your day.
This show features some of my signature magic and mind-reading miracles, and combines “amazing”, “hilarious”, and “dangerous” all into one show. It’s fast paced and high energy, and there’s plenty of audience involvement!
SO THEY SAY
“He is consistently professional and so incredibly easy to work with…“

Deborah Lamp, Associate Director, Student Activities
Speaking & MAGIC program
My college speaking program focuses less on the “motivational speaking” aspect and more on the issues that this generation of students go through in their everyday lives…
This program was created because of YOU — my college friends — and the impactful questions you had for me after my comedy magic shows. I combine amazing magic with relevant college topics to keep students RECEPTIVE, ENGAGED, and ENTERTAINED.
Written by a Millennial for Millennals and Gen Z, Joseph’s speaking program combines all-new magic, mind-reading, and comedy with issues that this generation of students go through in their everyday lives. It’s like Kevin Hart doing a TED talk… but he’s also awesome at magic!
SO THEY SAY
“One of the most entertaining and influential speakers we’ve ever had!”

CUSTOMIZED programs
My interactive programs are less about my own show, and more about customizing my magic for your special occasions and/or mingling through your crowd…
CLOSE-UP MAGIC
Miracles will happen right in front of your face and in your hands as I walk around campus and perform close-up magic to generate buzz for my stage show, or as a stand-alone program for your concert, festival, or fair.
THEMED EVENTS
Does your campus have an event that you go out all for? Whether you need a spirit medium for spooky Halloween shows, an emcee for your annual talent show, or an ambasador for your Homecoming Weekend, I will tailor my show with customized material just for your event.
