 I hired Darryl Charles Magic to perform at my 40th birthday party and to say it was a hit would be an understatement. It has been a month since my party and any time I see someone who attended the first thing they comment is how their mind is still trying to process how he did what we did. It truly was the highlight of the night and I wouldn't hesitate to book him again. So if you want to amaze your guests and blow their minds with magic you have to hire Darryl Charles. He will make it an event to remember.

We recently had the pleasure of having a phenomenal magician, Darryl Charles, perform at our son's 21st birthday party, and it was an experience we won't soon forget! From the moment he arrived, Darryl Charles brought an air of excitement and wonder to the event.
His repertoire of magic was not only impressive but also perfectly tailored to the audience, striking a fantastic balance between astonishing the younger guests and engaging the adults. The close-up magic left everyone in awe, and his stage performance was nothing short of spectacular. Darryl Charles has a remarkable ability to read the room and involve the audience, making everyone feel like a part of the show.
Moreover, his professionalism and charismatic personality added a special touch to the celebration. He was punctual, well-prepared, and interacted seamlessly with all our guests. Our son, who has always been a fan of magic, was especially thrilled to have such a talented performer at his milestone birthday.
We highly recommend Daryl Charles for any event where you want to add a bit of magic and wonder. His performance truly made our son's 21st birthday an unforgettable celebration. Thank you, Darryl Charles, for making the evening so magical! When Dillon's friends come over, they still talk about the unbelievable evening of magic. You are the best!

I was lucky enough to catch Darryl Charles perform at the Magic Castle for my birthday. Not only was I swept up by the beauty of the place and excited to be there for my first time, but being able to sit front row for his act was the highlight of my night. Watching him perform with such love for his craft, engaging the crowd that had gathered. Even making a newly engaged couples night by performing a trick that seemed ordained for them as if by MAGIC Truly a pleasure! I'd go back just to see what new tricks he might have up his sleeve!

Darryl makes you part of the magic. He has an amazing way of drawing you in and witnessing the magic along with you. He creates a welcoming, comfortable space where anything is possible and the narrative of the performance takes surprising turns. His humor, warmth, and enthusiasm is infectious. The only downside to his show is that at some point, it comes to a close. I look forward to seeing him again and again.

My wife and I have thoroughly enjoyed Darryl's performances, mixed with his great personality. We put him up there with some of the best we've seen at The Magic Castle in Hollywood.

Darryl provided an excellent show with a variety of different magical illusions: cards, ropes, dice, gadgets, etc. etc. etc. He performed close up work that thrilled both adults and kids (ages 4-11). The variety and originality in his act kept things fresh and interesting as we never knew what was coming up next. Darryl included all of us (his audience), especially our children. He made the entire affair a more interactive experience, as well as an amazing show. We are all very impressed with his talents and heartily recommend him for providing an entertaining and engaging event no matter the occasion. Darryl stayed a significantly long time and kept enticing us with additional illusions and magic. He even took the time after the show to teach our 11 year old son a magic card trick, and watched as our son performed it flawlessly for us all. I feel that this experience is one that our children (as well as us, the adults) will never forget. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Darryl, for making our 8 year Anniversary Celebration memorable, enjoyable, and filled with wonderment.
-R. & J. Cortez, Lancaster CA

I have watched Darryl study and perform magic over the years and grow into an exceptionally talented showman. He is not only an accomplished magician, but performs with panache, style and a sense of humor that delights and engages his audience. You are not only amazed, but walk away wishing for more and wanting to know more about the man behind the magic. -Marilyn C, Danville, Ca

At the risk of sounding cheesy, I have to write this review in the most genuine voice possible, as only I know how, as I had the most amazing time during my 1st visit to The Magic Castle. I was fortunate to experience so many wonderful magicians and even got chosen to assist in one of the acts which I wasn't expecting. I also witnessed the resident ghost perform New York, New York on her piano at my request. She was wonderful! The highlight of my 4.5 hour experience, however, was the magic of Darryl Charles who blew me away with his act, in particular a card trick where he made 2 of them become 1. It was hands down one of the best shows I've ever seen by any artist, it was literally unbelievable. I will never know how that was done and I never want to know, lol. Darryl is an incredible magician and simply an overall great individual who's very familiar with The Magic Castle and it's history, some of which he was able to share with me in between shows. It's simply mind-blowing all that this place has to offer and I can't thank Darryl enough for the hospitality I received at his private club. In my opinion, it's one of the best places on earth. Thank you!
