| Ziggy the Magic Guy In first grade, Ziggy was part of the school talent show where he prepared a short show using his fathers’ magic props. Although he did a few tricks here and there, it wasn’t until Ziggy graduated high school and began college when the “Magic Bug” bit him again. Ziggy’s father always wanted to own a magic shop but he had a full time job. Ziggy would run the shop, the problem was that Ziggy didn’t really know a lot of magic and he had to attend classes. Every day was a new magic lesson for Ziggy. He worked on not only learning the magic needed for the store, but developed an act that he could perform at parties and small gatherings. Ziggy joined “The Magicians Guild of Staten Island”. While in this club, Ziggy learned an act that used doves. Ziggy also took a job as a “Magic Clown” for a restaurant chain in the area. After a few years, Ziggy limited his magic to performances at parties, and simple magic for friends and family. Ziggy started performing small simple shows and quickly moved his way up becoming a premier magical entertainer. He is now one of the most sought after and requested performers in the tri-state area |
| Magic Al When Howard Stern mentioned on his morning radio show that he had lined up a magician to perform at his daughter's party, AL GARBER was depressed. Why hadn't Stern hired him? Garber later realized Stern actually had hired him, and Garber had since been asked back to perform at several other Stern family parties- including a surprise party for Stern's wife, Alison. The choice is proof that Stern doesn't take his work habits home with him, because Al, known professionally as Magic Al, is notorious for keeping his language clean - in rooms where a fart joke would be a sure way to bring the house down. Garber's accomplished sleight of hand can make a live dove appear out of nowhere and a birthday child levitate. But it's the banter-always funny in just the right way - that really sets him apart. What do 7-year-old girls find funny? He knows that too! |
| Mike Kirschner It all started with grandpa pulling a coin out of my ear. I was about 3 years old then. After that I had a magician at my birthday party for the next few years. My parents saw the desire I had, so they took me to a magic store when I was 7. That was it for me. I knew from there on that I had a calling and the calling was Magic. I performed for the first time at a neighbor's house for their child's birthday. I was only 10 years old. Then I was fortunate to go to magic camp at the age of 13. I learned about sleight of hand, or close up magic from some of the best magicians in the world. It became almost like an obsession. I practiced everyday; I still practice everyday. By the time I was 15 I was performing at Restaurants, Family functions and some Upscale events. At 18 I moved to Florida for college. I studied Business to Biology and Philosophy to Psychology. In college there was a class that taught you how to "heighten" your intuition. I believe the class was called "ESP, Believe it or not." I had finally found something in college that would aid me in the entertainment field. All of this education made me realize that the only thing I wanted to do was entertain. I gathered all my knowledge from college and I put it into my magic and mentalism. |
| Sandy the Seagull Sandy the Seagull comes from a family of baseball-loving birds. Sandy’s grandfather grew up on the telephone poles of Brooklyn in the 1950’s. He lived in a small nest on Flatbush Avenue next door to Ebbets Field and every weekend, he would fly out to Coney Island to hang out on the beach and ride the Cyclone. On game nights, he would fly over to the ballpark and watch the great Brooklyn Dodgers teams, while snacking on the ballpark leftovers. Grandpa Seagull was sad when the Dodgers left Brooklyn. He eventually moved his family to Queens and became a Mets fan. He found a nice nest at the #7 Train station and would take his flock to Mets games all the time. What did not change were the weekend plans, which always included a visit to Coney Island. When Sandy’s dad was old enough to move out on his own, he found a nest on top of the Parachute Jump tower. Sandy was born in 2001. One day, while the ballpark was being built, Sandy fell out of the family’s Parachute Jump tower nest. The construction workers nursed him back to health and let him hang around and be their mascot. When the ballpark was ready for baseball, Sandy was the obvious choice to become the Cyclones team mascot. With his inspired leadership, and cheerleading, he helped lead them to their first championship season, and has thrilled over one million fans at KeySpan Park.. |
