Gary Ferrar - Mentalist and Magician

Based in Franklin Square NY

✨Gary Ferrar is an acclaimed mentalist and magician who's as comfortable headlining for multi-billion dollar companies (Meta, Morgan Stanley, Google) as he is performing for a casual rooftop event.  With surprising frequency, he's also often recognized as the "fire juggling guy" from this Pimsleur advertisement.  Gary has a degree in Performing Arts from Hofstra University and draws on his love for theater and improvisation in more than 200 performances each year, from national TV appearances on NBC, USA Network, The Travel Channel, and Fox News, to performing for Howard Stern, Sharon Osbourne, and Howie Mandel on Season 7 of America's Got Talent.  From Gary:

"My performance style is very interactive and casual, with an emphasis on comedy. My goal is to make sure that your guests are not only blown away by my magic, but also have a great time in the process. By doing close-up magic for small groups of people, I can specifically target guests who may not be as engaged in other aspects of your event. Strolling magic can be a great ice-breaker if your guests don't all know each other. I have the experience to tactfully work a room with a strolling repertoire including such everyday objects as money, silverware, jewelry, playing cards, ice cubes, and mentalism. If possible, I love to finish each set with a trick or two for the whole room.

If you want costumed show girls, large mirrored boxes, and red sequined vests, I'm not your guy. I'd much rather perform an illusion with a paper bag and a spectator's sport coat. No matter the size of the crowd, my signature show feels intimate and improvised. I love the unexpected moments that arise as I bring your guests up to help out with my unique effects. I'll connect with your audience and make sure that everyone feels like they just witnessed the impossible. I have experience performing high-energy, engaging stage shows for weddings, corporate holiday parties, product launches, birthdays, retirements, fundraisers, proposals, comedy clubs, and can also MC your event."
