A Personal Introduction for The American Legion
of Iowa
Watch the short video below to see what's coming to your
National Convention Party on August 23, 2025
Hello, John and Team!
It was great speaking with you and learning more about your Iowa Party at the National Convention on August 23, 2025.
If you like what you see here, I'll bring my experience and expertise to ensure that it's even more fun, customized, and an unforgettable experience for your valued American Legion of Iowa members.
Here's what I propose:
The DIAMOND Experience -- One Man Wonder Show + Close Up/ Walk Around + Steel Lock Box
- Date: August 23, 2025
- Venue: Hotel Tampa Riverwalk 200 N Ashley Dr, Tampa, FL 33602
- Audience size: 250 - 300
- I will arrive by 3:00 PM so that I have plenty of time to set everything up, do tech rehearsal with lights and sound, and prepare for the show.
- At 6:00 pm as your American Legion of Iowa members arrive during the Social Hour I will circulate amongst them performing Close Up/Walk Around Magic.
- I will perform TWO HOURS of my Close Up/Walk Around magic.
- My Close Up/Walk Around magic features extraordinary feats of sleight of hand, prestidigitation, legerdemain, mentalism and comedy that will delight and amaze your American Legion of Iowa members. All of it will take place inches away from them and right under their noses. There will be lots of audience participation so that the magic actually happens to them.
- THEN...
- At 8:00 pm after dinner I will perform 45-minutes of my One Man Wonder Show on stage.
- My One Man Wonder Stage Show features extraordinary feats of sleight of hand, mind-reading, mentalism and comedy that will delight and amaze your American Legion of Iowa members.
- They'll see ordinary household objects come to life, I'll demonstrate why a beer bottle is the best piggy bank, a paper airplane will fly directly to your most skeptical Member, I'll show them how an eggbeater can be used to read minds and we'll play the craziest game of Clue they've ever seen.
- There will be constant audience participation and interaction so that your American Legion of Iowa members become part of the show and it reinforces the idea that the American Legion is the epicenter of all things magical.
- BONUS-- Steel Lock Box Prediction - I'll send a sealed FedEx package in March to your most trusted Member, someone you choose for their sterling character and trustworthy reputation. He will be instructed to guard it zealously and bring it with him to the National Convention in Tampa. At the conclusion of my performance, I'll bring him onstage with the sealed package and ask him to verify that he received this package five months before, that it has been in his possession since then, and that it has not been opened. The Member will open the package in front of everyone. Sealed inside will be a Steel Lock Box containing my accurate prediction of the news headlines for August 23, 2025. This will blow everyone's minds and they'll be talking about it for years to come!
- ALL my material is squeaky clean and family friendly, I never say or do anything that might be considered controversial or offensive.
- For reasons you and I discussed on the phone, I’m going to waive all my travel expenses. (That just saved you $1,000!)
- My Close Up/Walk Around Magic and One Man Wonder Show and Steel Lock Box Prediction are totally self-contained with all props, costumes, set pieces and accessories so that you don’t have to worry about a thing.
- I will deal directly with the Hotel Tampa Riverwalk regarding everything for my performance-- staging, lights, sound, etc.-- so that you don't have to.
- I require a stage space of a minimum of 4' x 8'.
- I will provide my own Shure wireless microphone system along with my own audio mixing board that will plug into whatever P.A. the hotel provides. I bring my own Audio Ape system for my music cues. (No sound tech is required-- I trigger all my music cues remotely during my performance.)
- Performance fee - $ 6,350 + hotel.
I will hold this date until February 8, 2025, so that your team can review this material. If you get in touch after that, I'd love to do it if I'm still available.
If you would like to secure the date immediately I'll send a simple Letter of Agreement and an electronic invoice to secure the date with a deposit.
Wishing you the best of success with your National Convention Party!
