Make Your Event Amazing
Give Your Guests Something They’ve Never Seen
Hire Carroll Baker and your guests will spend the night gasping, laughing, and turning to each other to ask, “How did he do that?” I’m a comedy magician and mentalist based in Columbus, Ohio, and for over 35 years I’ve performed real, in-your-hands magic for corporate events, weddings, and private parties nationwide. It’s polished, it’s funny, and it’s built around your event, not a canned routine.
“Carroll Baker is a modern day Merlin only better because there is no chance of getting eaten by a dragon while watching him perform. Thanks again for the GREAT show!”
– Mathew Gray Gubler ~ Star on Criminal Minds TV show
“We LOVE Carroll! Carroll has entertained us through community functions, private events and parties for our children. No matter what the age, he customized each show for all the guests and the format. He captivates little ones and older ones. He continuously updates his routines and we never feel like we are seeing the same performance over and over. There is always something NEW! Our recent event was for a party for a teenager. All the teens and tweens absolutely loved it and the show was one of their favorite parts of the party. Carroll is a great performer, it’s easy to book a show, he communicates quickly and he is always, always on time. We highly recommend any performance of his for your next event.”
