About Magic by CJ

Magic by CJ began with a nine-year-old glued to the television, watching David Copperfield, and that spark became a lifelong pursuit blending magic, music and storytelling. Along the way CJ managed a magic shop, woven magic into his music lessons, and, when the pandemic hit in 2020, embraced Zoom as a new stage.

The act flexes to the room: close-up magic performed inches away at the table, short interactive sets for smaller groups, or a full stage show using props, assistants and stage crew. Guests can expect wide-eyed wonder, laughter, and moments they talk about long after the event ends. With 35 years of magic behind him, CJ performs at birthdays, corporate events, weddings, schools and restaurants around Phoenix.
