What Clients Are Saying…

“We really are lucky that the hotel suggested your services, because we would not have known about the availability of a game show for our corporate meeting. What a great option. We had lots of fun, and the newer employees really felt as though they were part of the group almost immediately.”

-Bank of America

<a name="strolling-magic"></a>

2. Strolling Close-Up Magic

[text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left” font_size=”16″]Most people have never had the thrill of seeing Close-Up Magic performed. Close-Up Magic is not “magic on a stage”…and it does not require the entire audience to “be quiet and watch the show.” That is why Strolling Close-Up Magic is such a great addition to any event—be it corporate or family-oriented. It can be used as a background entertainment option if your event is featuring a Deejay…especially if there are many non-dancers in the group. The audience will experience something new and unique…and they will greatly appreciate the person who decided to add that “something extra” to the event. Would that be you?

Benefits of having Strolling Close-Up Magic at your next event:

1- Who thinks about the non-dancers in an audience? Most people who hire a DJ just leave it at that. But, the non-dancers deserve some entertainment, too…don’t they?

2- Magic During the Cocktail Hour of Your Event. In addition, Close-Up Magic is a great ice-breaker during the cocktail hour of your event…especially if there are numerous people there who do not know each other.

3- Will your company have a Hospitality Suite where your Sales Reps might be trying to close some sales?

Ask Magic Barry, with his 25 years of corporate sales experience, how he can assist your sales team, by utilizing his Close-Up Magic miracles to help seal the deals. Magic Barry has performed professionally in 15 states, as well as in Japan, Canada, Costa Rica, Colombia, and even in Budapest, Hungary.[/text_block]


<a name="karaoke"></a>

3. Karaoke

[text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left” font_size=”16″]You want Karaoke? We’ve got Karaoke!
Hey… why not? If that is what you need to satisfy all the people at your next event (even if only 3 or 4 of them will be singing) then Magic Barry Entertainment can offer that option to you as well. We have more than 5,000 karaoke songs, plus we have the ability to fulfill any special requests for songs if you let us know prior to the event.[/text_block]

<a name="deejay"></a>

4. Deejay Music with Magic

[text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left” font_size=”16″]Yes, there are many deejays to choose from…but how many can also perform Strolling Close-Up Magic while the music is playing?

When you hire Magic Barry Entertainment, we take advantage of the modern technology available to deejays. Why pay a deejay to stand behind his laptop for several hours, when you can have Magic Barry himself strolling through the crowd performing Close-Up Magic, while all the great music is automatically playing on the computerized deejay software. It’s like getting two entertainers for the price of one.

Here’s an interesting question: What are you planning for all the non-dancers at your event?

Most people never even think about this…and that is why many people leave a party earlier than the ones who are dancing. No party ever has 100% of the people up on the dance floor.

However, Magic Barry gives you a solution to this problem that you may not even realize that you have.
How does he do that? Modern Technology…and MAGIC! Think about it…what do all the other DJ’s do when they come to your event?

Answer: They stand behind a table, watching their laptop play the pre-loaded song list. Once in a while, they might load up a song that is not yet on the list. But that is about it.

Now…what does Magic Barry do while his laptop is playing the song list?
Answer: Magic Barry is strolling among all the guests who are sitting at their tables—all the non-dancers. And what is he doing? He is performing his world-class Close-Up Magic…thereby giving all the non-dancers a reason to stick around much longer, and to not feel as though they are “left out” of all the fun.[/text_block]


<a name="olympics"></a>

5. Company Olympics

[text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left” font_size=”16″]Another great team-building event is to have a Company Olympics. This can take place at an outdoor venue, a hotel ballroom, or right in your company offices.

Magic Barry Entertainment will bring all the Company Olympics Games to your event. These will all be fun activities, but with a competitive element to them. There will be lots of laughs and enthusiasm when your company’s employees try their hand at all of the unique, interactive events that we will provide for you.[/text_block]

Who Is Magic Barry?

— SPACER —

[text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left”]Magic Barry is much more than “just a magician.” In fact, he is more than “just Magic Barry.” Magic Barry (Barry Richards) began his entertainment “career” in the 3rd grade at Elementary School P.S. 76 in The Bronx, where he played the lead role of The Narrator… who turned out to be The Butler who “did it.”

After receiving great “reviews” from the 6th-grader drama critic for the school newspaper, Barry felt there was nothing left to achieve, so he abandoned his “career’ to pursue his other great talent—mathematics. Yes, Barry was only dabbling in performing until he could get his big break in the field of mathematics.

His mathematic skills eventually led him to become a mortgage broker in Los Angeles, where many people look great—but cannot do basic multiplication. However, fate would step in and alter his path once again.[/text_block]

[text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left”]Barry went into semi-retirement from the world of show business. He then moved to Charlotte, NC, where he was able to pursue another one of his passions…veterinary medicine.

No, Barry did not become a veterinarian. However, he did become the #1 salesperson for the largest veterinary laboratory in the world. For 15 years, Barry assisted many veterinarians, both by helping their patients through modern laboratory testing, and growing of their businesses…all the while becoming one of the most entertaining speakers at veterinary conferences and trade shows.

It was during these speaking engagements that Barry rediscovered his passion, and gift, for making people laugh. He abandoned his lucrative career in the veterinary world, and became a full-time entertainer at a wide variety of special events for both corporate and family clients.[/text_block]

Who Is Dancing Barry?

[text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left”]Dancing Barry is Magic Barry’s alter-ego…and he still makes occasional appearances at certain select events.

Dancing Barry is renowned as “The Ambassador of Enthusiasm” from his 7-year stint with the Showtime Era Los Angeles Lakers that had basketball Hall of Fame players Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and James Worthy. In addition, there was also Hall of Fame Coach Pat Riley, Hall of Fame Executives Bill Sharman and Jerry West, and Hall of Fame Broadcaster Chick Hearn.

In addition to his performances at the Lakers games, Dancing Barry was in constant demand at corporate functions in the Los Angeles area.

By combining his Magic and Comedy along with his “Dancing Executives” routine (using the actual executives from the companies that hired him), Barry was able to entertain vast numbers of people who could not get tickets to the sold-out Lakers games.[/text_block]

If you have Magic Barry come entertain at one of your events, be sure to ask him about the “Dancing Barry Option”…which will be 100% guaranteed to be a big hit with your audience.

Frequently Asked Questions

[custom_html]

Are there prizes for the winning team?

That is up to you. We have produced Game Shows where the company purchased some very nice prizes, and we have also produced shows where the prizes were five dollar gift cards to local discount stores.

We can offer you some very nice “Beverage on Demand” coupons to give to the winning team. These are a great “Gag Gift”…and many companies have told us that they really enjoyed having them. They extended the fun experience of the Game Show into the following week at the office.

Be sure to ask us about these “Beverage on Demand” coupons when we talk to you on the phone.

[Edit Faq]

Can the Game Show be customized to suit our needs…as for a sales meeting or training session?

Yes! Part of our service is the preparation time we put into making sure the show will be appropriate for what you want to accomplish. We work with you prior to the event to make sure we know what you want.

[Edit Faq]

Can we have questions about our company?

Yes, you can submit as many questions as you’d like about your company…or any other topic that you would like.

[Edit Faq]

Do we have to pay a deposit?

Yes, we require a 50% retainer to book a definite date and time.

We are very busy, and we cannot hold a date—or turn down another potential client—without a retainer. We hope you will understand the reason for this policy.

[Edit Faq]

What kind of questions will there be?

We have a wide variety of questions and topics. You will assist us in deciding which categories suit your group best.

The most popular categories are “Name That Tune” (with choices from many different musical categories), “Famous Movie Quotations”, “TV Theme Songs”, and “Food Questions.”

There are other categories, as well. Something for everybody!

[Edit Faq]

[/custom_html]

[custom_html]

How big of an audience do you need for the game show?

We have performed for as few as 12 executives of a major company’s Holiday Party, and as many as 330 people for all the city employees at their annual awards banquet.

[Edit Faq]

How many people are needed to play the game show?

We have performed our game shows for groups ranging from as few as 12…up to as many as 330.

We always call up 2 members at a time from each team. That way, nobody will be at the podiums all by themselves. There are usually 3 teams competing at most events.

[Edit Faq]

Is Magic Barry’s Interactive Game Show only a “bunch of questions?”

The answer is a resounding, “Not at all!” That would get to be pretty boring—very quickly.

Our Game Shows also include “challenge rounds” that require some physical skills from the participants. Don’t worry…none of the required physical skills are very athletic.

Another desirable feature of our Game Shows is that they also include Singing and Dancing…if that is what you want. If not (such as for Training Sessions), we can leave the singing and dancing out of the production.

[Edit Faq]

What kind of game show is it? Is it like one of the game shows on TV?

Magic Barry’s Interactive Game Show is not “like” any one game show you might see on TV—and that is a very good thing!
This will be an interactive entertainment for a live audience that will want to participate …not a TV-studio audience that is simply there to watch a show.
Magic Barry’s Interactive Game Show is a combination of all the best elements of several game shows…and it encourages audience participation.
