Meet Rich

Comedy magician, audience enthusiast and professional big kid.

I've spent years bringing people together through comedy, magic and audience interaction. Whether I'm performing in a theatre, entertaining guests at a wedding or helping break the ice at a corporate event, my goal is always the same: bring people together and leave them with something they'll be talking about long after the event ends.

If I'm having fun, the audience can join me.
