A Chiefs Production · Super Bowl LIX Ticket Reveal 1:28 · Filmed live

Tickets, not a rabbit,
pulled out of a hat.

The Kansas City Chiefs invited Scott to surprise a long-time superfan with real Super Bowl LIX tickets — on camera. The reveal was filmed and produced by the team.

Whoever's in the room

Two audiences.
One standard.

Corporate stages and kids' birthday parties are two completely different shows — different persona, different tricklist, different room. Scott loves both. There's something irreplaceable about lighting the spark of magic for a child seeing it up close for the first time, and there's something equally irreplaceable about a CFO catching the gag a beat before the rest of the room.

Discerning parents love the show as much as their kids — because Scott makes it easy for them. Event planners love the magic as much as the C-suite — because Scott makes it easy for them, too. Different rooms. Same standard.

One hundred and fifty five-star Google reviews say so — from both kinds of room. Read them →

I · Introduction

Read the room.
Then perform.

Scott has been studying magic his whole life. The career broke open at the University of Kansas — long before America's Got Talent — when he won a campus talent show and realized how much a room could love a card trick. He dove in, started performing at restaurants in Lawrence and Kansas City, and hasn't looked back.

A quarter-century later, his clients include the Kansas City Chiefs, who trusted Scott to award real Super Bowl LIX tickets to a superfan on camera in a segment KSHB 41 News later picked up. John Deere flew him to Las Vegas and put him up at the Bellagio to work their trade-show floor. He has headlined the KC Live! stage at Power & Light, performed at Union Station, and handled the room for hundreds of private clients around the country. Kansas City audiences book him for the school assembly, then book him again for the corporate event, the fundraiser, the birthday.

He performs for audiences of ten and audiences of a thousand. Clients tell him both kinds of rooms walk out saying the same thing: I have no idea how he did that.

One reason for that consistency: Scott also holds a corporate job in Kansas City. He spends his weekdays in the kinds of meetings his clients hire him to entertain. He knows what lands with executives, with sales teams, with engineers. Most performers don't have that perspective, and it's part of why companies keep re-booking him.

We engaged Scott to unveil our ESOP Stock Price Reveal in a unique and memorable way. Initially, I was uncertain about how it would go — the tailored illusion made it unforgettable.

VI · Questions

The usual
asks.

How far in advance should we book?

Corporate engagements typically book three to six months out. The October–December holiday window fills fastest, often held by summer. Short notice is always worth asking about; cancellations happen, and Scott sometimes keeps time open for last-minute requests.

Do you travel outside Kansas City?

Routinely. Scott has performed from Seattle to Orlando for corporate clients, and across the Midwest for private events. Travel and logistics get handled on your behalf or in coordination with your events team, whichever is simpler.

Can the show be customized for our brand or industry?

Almost always. Product names, campaign messaging, inside references, a retiring executive's tenure, a sales kickoff theme. Any of it can be worked into a routine. A short briefing call before the engagement is usually all it takes.

What does the venue need to provide?

Very little. A power outlet, a defined performance area, and for stage shows, whatever microphone the venue already runs. Scott arrives early and rarely asks for anything unusual. A full technical rider is available on request.

Are virtual shows actually interactive?

Yes. The virtual format was written for the camera from the start, not a livestream of a stage show with a webcam pointed at it. Guests shuffle their own cards, draw on their own paper, and pull bills from their own wallets. The ending still has people typing "HOW" into the chat.

Question Not Listed?

Just ask.
Scott answers personally.

Every event is different, and the questions worth asking usually aren't on a public FAQ. Send a quick note and Scott will reply within a day.

VII · Fundraisers & Galas

The line item that
pays back.

A great fundraiser doesn’t just need attendees, it needs a reason for them to show up. A magic act gives the invite a hook and gets the room loose well before the paddles go up.

That ripples past the night itself. Guests talk about it afterward. Next year’s invitation lands with a story behind it, and attendance climbs. Local press is often more willing to cover the build-up when there’s a feature performer attached, and that’s somewhere I’m happy to help.

Twenty minutes on stage, hours of close-up at cocktails, or both. Every gala is structured a bit differently. Reach out and I’ll share what’s worked elsewhere.
