I did my first strolling #magician gig today for a wedding party! It was super fun, and I got some wonderful, surprised reactions from the guests. Such a fun group and an enjoyable gig doing card and cube magic!

1. My first gig is Saturday after an upcoming game of the TTRPG "CY_BORG" which I play with a great group of local friends. Super excited for both. 🙂
