Magic Mike Jacobson Blends Comedy and Magic Together
Magic Mike grew his interest in magic at nine years old, when he witnessed a trick during a day camp. He showed intense passion in mentalism that he became one of the youngest members ever admitted to the Junior Program at the Magic Castle. Since then, magic has become his bread and butter, impressing audiences in various events while also introducing his name in different countries.
According to his website, Magic Mike “blends new-school magic, mentalism, and comedy, with old-school charm.” As he puts it, he performs to do more than magic, but to inject joy and awe.
“He doesn’t just get hired to do magic, he gets hired to blow minds. It’s not about making people ‘believe.’ It’s about making everyone from the gullible to the skeptics, question everything they know about life,” his website bio reads.
It’s safe to say that Magic Mike is one of the most in-demand magicians in America. He is the first magician to be named Forbes 30 Under 30. He’s also appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, propelling everyone’s jaw to drop trick after trick.
