The Talents Of A Strolling Magician Orlando

By Betty Wood


When it comes to magic shows, it's not all about festivals, street artists or Las Vegas. For, these individuals can perform as a strolling magician Orlando, provide magic shows for children or perform in world renown shows in Las Vegas and around the world. Magic has become more popular over the last few years after Matt Franco was the first magician to win the popular reality show America's God Talent.

In many cases, these individuals can work at festivals and other events under the permit issued to the organizer. Still, to avoid ticketing, it is advised that performers and vendors ask organizers when registering to perform or vend at an event if this is the case. Otherwise, individuals without the proper permit or working under the guise of an organizer could face fines, or in some cases, jail time.

While Austin has recently allowed busking without permits, there were a number of performers and vendors in the 1990s whom received tickets for performing or vending without a license. In that case, the individuals included fire dancers, food vendors, flower girls, jewelry makers, jugglers, musicians, painters, rose sellers and muralists. While the fines were between $50 and $200, most of these individuals rarely made enough to cover the cost of housing, if not homeless.

While Key West, Orlando, New Orleans, New York and other cities still boast some vibrant entertainment districts, a number of individuals attempt to perform on a regular basis in other areas. For example, some street performers in Boston perform at the same time in different city squares each and every day. Whereas, there are others whom prefer to move around and perform in different areas.

Still, there are some magicians whom are willing to do whatever it takes to entertain visitors in these areas. With Orlando having a number of other entertainment options, there are often people strolling the entertainment district day and night. As such, magicians working in this area can often acquire more tips than others by performing on a daily basis in different areas of the city. Whether in the Orlando entertainment district, at Universal Studios Street Walk or a local venue, the area has a lot to offer when it comes to magic.

There are also some amazing videos of magicians on YouTube and similar sites. Whereas, there are also clips of touring acts such as Illusions, a stage show which features performances by world renown magicians working in different genres. Whether desiring to see close up, illusion, slight of hand or street magic, all are available on these video sharing websites.

Older teens and young adults wanting to learn the art of magic may want to check out the free Monday classes offered by Jeff on the McBride Magic dot com website. For, a series of free classes are offered on a number of topics each Monday with additional classes available at a nominal cost. In some cases, there may be other magicians or mentors hosting a class but the information is always informative, unique and useful to those desiring to learn or even well seasoned magicians whom just want to learn new and different aspects of magic.

In all cases, magic is at the center of the studies offered by this amazing magician, associated mentors and fellow magicians. In fact, Jeff McBride founded the only magic and mystery school in the United States. After which, the performer has gone on to win numerous World Magician of the Year and other awards.
