MEET CHRIS WHEEL
A few things
you might not expect.
I’m Chris Wheel, a magician and certified school psychologist. I use that background to connect with people of all ages, entertain them and make them feel part of the experience.
For 20 years, I’ve brought magic, comedy and more to events across New York and beyond. With more than 100 five-star reviews, you can feel confident your guests are in good hands.
Somewhere along the way, singing gets involved. And yes, I really do fold a paper crane with my mouth.

What do I need to provide?
I bring my own audio equipment, props and the setup for your show. If your venue has a suitable house sound system, I can use that too. Easy access to the performance area is appreciated—ideally a ramp or step-free entrance for loading in. We’ll confirm the details together.
