First Communion•Reviewed on May 13, 2018•From Bayville, NY
Chris Anthony is a first class magician in every respect. Very professional and skillful. We were very happy with his work at our son's communion. Our son was so exited and we were very pleased to see our guests being amazed by his tricks.
In general, Chris Anthony provides a great entertainment for all age groups and we will definitely use him again.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 10, 2018•From Babylon, NY
Chris Anthony is an incredible performer! The surprise birthday party for my husband wasn't a complete surprise. However, Chris Anthony's magic overflowed with unexpected surprises! He worked with every person in the crowd of 45+ people, he astonished all the guests, he "saved" a spectacular card trick for my husband and me at the end of his show.
I expect that we will ask Chris to join us at other parties so we can continue to marvel at his talent.

When I say AMAZING, I mean nothing short of it. He was unlocking cellphones, turning my single dollar bills into one hundreds all kinds of sorcery HA!! Serious he's awesome. He wowed my husband which is talent in itself. Love Chris and I cannot wait to have to perform again. Thanks Chris a million!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 16, 2018•From Metuchen, NJ
Chris was the absolute highlight of our party - completely elevating it to another level! He mingled with the crowd right away and helped to get people to socialize and interact with one another as the night began. No one wanted him to leave at the end of the night - his illusions blew everyone away. Completely professional, timely, polite and very skilled, it is impossible to recommend Chris highly enough. He's a star!
Corporate Function•Reviewed on February 12, 2022•From New York City, NY
Chris joined us for a virtual team (corporate) event this week and left everyone thrilled and dumbfounded! Additionally, Chris was extremely easy to work with (phone / email), quick to respond, and available on rather quick notice. If you need someone to entertain your group, large or small, in person or virtually, I highly recommend Chris and will be using him again if possible!
Bridal Shower•Reviewed on April 8, 2018•From Farmingdale, NJ
If I could give 6 stars, I would. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Chris. I booked him for my daughter's bridal shower. He was very prompt and responsive to my numerous emails and phone calls before the event. Chris was also very accommodating to several special requests that I made. On the day of the shower, he arrived early and did some magic at each table - the guests really enjoyed this. His act was great- my daughter loved it and was so happy that I booked him. Chris incorporated some tricks related to my daughter's wedding, which made the party extra special. My guests told me they loved his show! I would hire Chris Anthony again in a minute!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 10, 2018•From Huntington Station, NY
Chris performed at my home for my wife's birthday party. He was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! From start to finish he kept us all on the edge of our seats with his mind blowing magic tricks and mentalism. Chris was extremely professional, attentive, funny, and made sure all of our guests were involved in the show. I would absolutely recommend Chris to anyone who is looking for an unforgettable magic experience.
I should also mention, he showed up on time during a brutal nor'easter... Chris Anthony rocks!!
Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 20, 2017•From Riverton, NJ
Our holiday party was a complete success and Chris was a big part of that; from hors d’oeuvres, through dinner and his outstanding show. Our guests were amazed by his magic, but it was so much more than that. Chris wowed them with his mind-blowing sleight of hand, incredible mentalism and extraordinary personality & showmanship! His performance added a component to our evening that made it even more special and we all thank him!
Private Party•Reviewed on December 6, 2017•From Old Bridge, NJ
Wow! Chris Anthony was amazing! My wife and I have been throwing our holiday party now for about 6 years and this was by far the best. Every year we come up with a new twist or theme and Chris Anthony's performance blew everyone away. Our friends and family are still buzzing about it on social media. I would definitely use him again and would highly recommend him to anyone who wants a professional, talented and all around really nice guy as part of their event. Definitely worth the price of admission. 5 Stars all around. Glen and Lisa
Anniversary Party•Reviewed on October 31, 2017•From Staten Island, NY
Wow...all I can say about Chris is”Wow!”
Chris performed for our small family celebration of a 52nd Anniversary party attended by about 15 people. Everyone was ASTOUNDED by his performance. His “mentalist” performances were perhaps the most mind-boggling of all, but I don’t want to give away any spoilers in case you decide to book.
As someone who has booked through Gigmasters before, you will absolutely get more than what you would expect and more value for what you pay for if you contract with Chris. He’s a pleasure to do business with, and we would certainly hire him again!
Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on April 13, 2014•From Philadelphia, PA
Chris Anthony is a true professional. Chris performed during cocktail hour at my wedding reception and was the talk of the wedding. His street magic is top notch. He always involved the guests in his tricks and was able to manage the incredible amount of personalities with class and grace. I would absolutely recommend Chris Anthony because you will not only get an amazing magician, but you will get somebody who will communicate and accommodate your requests. He treats you with such class and dignity and you can see that he truly cares that your event will be special.
Chris, you are awesome. Thanks for helping make our day great!!!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 14, 2018•From Red Bank, NJ
Chris was extremely pleasant from the moment I booked him 6 months ago. He didn't require a deposit. He answered all emails in a timely manner. The night we finally met he was warm, funny and great with my kids. Even though it was an adult party his magic interested adults and children alike. He involved my children in his act. He left such an impression on my 10 year old, she's been carrying around the penny he gave her and telling us she wants to be a magician when she grows up.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 13, 2014•From South Orange, NJ
Chris was fantastic in every way! His magic was a huge wow - everyone at my party was amazed. His up-close slight-of-hand was really incredible and his mental telepathy tricks were dynamite.
Add to that his fun, endearing personality. He was absolutely charming without being slick or over-dramatic. He drew everyone in, even the more reserved of the bunch!
Our party was a huge success and Chris and his superb show get a lot of credit for that. We will absolutely hire him - and only him - the next time we need a magician.
Thanks Chris!!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 2, 2013•From Yonkers, NY
Fantastic! Chris is a real deal entertainer and anyone will be lucky to have him at their party. Booking him was a breeze and came with a guarantee. Chris showed up before agreed to time and swiftly started mingling with the crowd. We agreed on an up-close performance followed by a mentalist show. I must say that the crowd was tough, however, Chris handled the situation very professionally and made all believers. We were hosting a party for my daughter and her grandfather, so we had a mix of younger and older crowd, numbering around 50. Chris had a variety show that catered to all. I would whole heartedly recommend his services to anyone asking for a recommendation.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 4, 2013•From New York City, NY
To say Chris Anthony is a great magician/mentalist/ illusionist would be an incredible understatement. Chris Anthony gave the MOST AMAZING and MIND BOGGLING show I have ever seen. We had a crowd of 50 guests, all ages and we were all mesmerized. He was also very accommodating, punctual and professional. Thanks for being part of my father's surprise bday party, Chris- you were great!
Sincerely, Jessica
Corporate Function•Reviewed on September 13, 2013•From Rocky Hill, CT
I was very concerned being I trying this for the first time with a client. Now I would tell you that Chris Anthony blew my entire night away with his magic and mentalist routine. He did walk around for an hour and stage for an hour and he captivated the entire place for the two hours he was here! It's been 3 days and everyone is still talking about him. Not only do I plan on using Chris again, I would highly recommend him for any corporate function where you are trying to impress!!! His professionalism and talent are both extraordinary as well as being very nice man!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 12, 2014•From Syosset, NY
The event was amazing. 5 stars is not enough to describe how thrilled we all were with the party. My kids and their friends were totally blown away, as were the adults. I was afraid as the kids aged 10-12 were a skeptical audience but within a few minutes Chris had them all amazed and having a great time. He seemlessly kept the kids table and adults table entertained and involved. Chris was very understanding and accomodating without having to be asked. He always knew what to do, truly a sign of the utmost professinalism. We are all still talking about his tricks and illusions and trying to figure them out - but we are baffled!
Don't hesitate, book Chris Anthony!
Private Party•Reviewed on March 16, 2014•From Glen Rock, NJ
Chris Anthony was fantastic! A real hit at the party, the guests were all calling him "amazing". He's this great combination of very likable, smart, low-key, who works so well with the crowd..really great performing and people skills. So, you trust him--and then he wows you with great magic, illusion, putting peoples names on cards and money and making things disappear, just crazy stuff! This was probably a tough crowd to please and they were screaming and clapping. Fantastic! Do not hesitate to hire him! We are so glad we did! He made our party amazing.
