Just a note that we are paying $12,000 a month and a resort hotel room in Hawaii in our new venture HOTEL MAGIC LLC presents The Magical Mystery Show! Very high level. See www.Hotel-Magic.com. There is a special section of Vanish Magazine dedicating 25 pages to what we are doing. You can see that at www.magic.likes.fans/VANISH-SE. Shoot Ogawa is doing the first property in Waikiki and Nathan Coe Marsh is doing the first one on Maui. I need really great Parlor performers with 70 minutes of act. See release with what Magicians need to apply at https://www.einnews.com/pr_news/55885286......-england - Thanks for passing the word to the right magicians! Jonathan Todd AKA StarManager

Thank you DannyDoyle! Magic needs to be seen as a high art form. We get put into "variety" when we are truly ballet or opera! The key is to do it right and with the best. We are trying to bring back the dignity, the awe and the honor of Parlour Magic! Should be good for all magicians!

I have said this for decades. It is just how it needs to be and that is true.

Mindpro the theatre is created at each hotel/resort. We provide everything for the resident magicians. Including room at the resort and an assistant. We have a show opener provided for. The performers all get a portion of back of room sales as well but they do not sell or offer anything to the public. I have never like seeing a magician hawk products after a great performance so we have staff there. Overall the magicians get a performing vacation in paradise and may earn upwards of $30K a month, depending on lots of variables. This is not for everyone and we are not looking for contracts of a year. 2, 3, 4 months for those whom this fits and who like the opportunity. If you look at our information showing the special edition of Vanish magazine you'll see a dozen of the brightest starts of magic who have already gone through the vetting and have joined our roster. Shoot Ogawa, TC Tahoe, Curtis Kam, Pavid Parr, Eric DeCamps, Nathan Coe Marsh, Scott Alexander, Oscar Munoz, Jason Cobalt, Jason Michaels and The Sentamentalists. We're looking for the people who find this attractive and have a couple of months in their schedule where they can commit the time. We have a lot of hotels and need a lot of the world's best. Hope this helps clarify your question.

Thanks for the detailed reply. I didn't realize this was a resorts-type format/model, as it seemed more like a Cohen-type model. I am quite familiar with resort entertainer programs having booked and produced them myself through my agencies for nearly 40 years now. You are right, many variables. Lots of concerns as well.

I wish you the best of luck as it would be nice to see magic presented on a respectable industry level rather than what it has been diminished to over the years. All my best and keep us posted.

Looks like you are not looking for a comedy magician. My speciality.

We are looking for the BEST in any category. Comedy especially! Contact the show via the links for magicians at the bottom of the website for Paul (agent) at www.Hotel-Magic.com and see what he says! We have a huge roster now but need more as we have a lot of hotels to fill up and most acts are on for 2-4 months so we need talent!

I was reviewing past threads looking for something specific trying to help another member out and I came across this thread. As in several recent threads members were asking about residencies, recurring shows, or runs of shows and when I saw this it made me wonder how this was doing? We haven't heard much about this for well over a year which is surprising as they seemed to come on strong and since some decent names were behind this with what seemed like some really decent venues?

Anyone apply, have any experience with this, or has anyone heard anything about it? Since they were seeking some of the best talent it's surprising its been so quiet.

Seems like it's ongoing, their website lists that shoot Ogawa is performing all this
month on Oahu, apparently Arther trace is performing later this month on Maui.

That's some talented guys.

I seem to recall reading some posts on Facebook about this venue, by Paul Romhany.

(StarManager / Jonathan mentioned Paul above, by first name only.)

Paul is their exclusive agent, as well as being a busy performer and publisher.

While in theory this is great, in practice maybe not. While staying at the resort guys still have mortgage and car payments and obligations at home, plus the cost of getting other gigs for when they are home so it isn’t really much in the grand scheme of things.

Still fun to do and in a great location needless to say. There is a lot for the right performers that is definitely true.

Without mentioning names it would be interesting to hear just how many have earned upwards of $30,000 a month this far in. That is over double the $12,000 so it seems something to clarify.

A friend of mine did Maui and will be doing Oahu coming up. They have since closed the Maui location; I believe they lost their deal with the hotel there but I don't know specifics. That said, he enjoyed the experience and the audiences.

WHAT ARE THE STAGES LIKE? How close to the patrons? Is there a formal stag?. How is the performer miked up? Is there an audio visual guy or gal? Are there digital screens or is it pretty analog? Lots of pertinent questions. Smile Smile Smile

Not sure how it works in the US. However here in Australia, if I was pulling in $30,000 a month I'd have no problems paying off a mortgage and car payments. Unless I was paying off a Ferrari or owned a 4 million dollar house I suppose. It's all relevant to ones accustomed life style I'm guessing.
