OUR SPECIAL GUEST MAGICIAN


Zach Waldman


When I was about six years old, Burger King copied McDonald's and their happy meal with a kids' meal of their own. As a result, their kids' meal came with magic tricks, which is where I got my first one. I still have it after all these years! I fell in love with magic, and as a I got older my mom encouraged me to put together an act and charge money for it. That's right, my mom actually pushed me toward being a professional entertainer. I'm both a comedian and a magician and my shows are all very different because I customize them for every audience. I've been lucky to perform for some amazing people.
