Meet your magician

Magic starts
with people.

I’m Billy, a close-up magician based in Williston, Vermont. For over 15 years I’ve performed at private parties, company events, festivals, and Burlington’s New Year’s Eve celebration on the waterfront, and been featured on WCAX Channel 3 News.

A few useful answers

Before the
first OMG.

Visit the full FAQ
Do we need a stage or sound system?

No. Close-Up magic is designed to happen where your guests are already gathered, and Billy performs without a sound system. He always brings his 4 foot branded black table.

Can you come to our vacation rental?

Yes. The Parlor Show brings a 30 to 40 minute interactive magic show, followed by 20 to 30 minutes of crowd work, to Vermont cabins, vacation rentals, and Airbnbs. It is designed for 2 to 40 guests and best suited for adults and children ages 10 and up. If your group is mainly younger children, ask Wendy about strolling magic instead.

What if I’m not sure which package to choose?
