Make a wish with a magic pirate

I often perform with the make a wish organization as Captain Corbin the magic pirate. Make a wish with a magic pirate is a great match. The Make a wish foundation is an incredible organization that grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy. The foundation is national and international with branches all over North America. The international foundation is the largest wish-granting organization in the world, making wishes come true for more than 450,000 children since 1980.

Make a wish fundraising events

Every year this wonderful organization holds many events to raise awareness and funds. I always try to be a part of as many events that I can. Some of my favourite events include the rappelling event. Every year they have people raise funds and rappel off of London’s tallest building. During the winter season in Port Stanley Ontario one family holds their own fundraiser inviting people to come to their home and look at the Christmas light display. The Port Stanley Christmas light display is incredible with thousands of lights and hundreds of decorations. Every year they raise a lot of money for the Make a wish group. You can help out at these events yourself. contact them today.

As Captain Corbin I volunteer on a regular basis. I often bring my magic to the hospital when they have a wish day event. I have rappelled down the buildings and performed at their gala nights at Sunningdale golf club. Sunningdale is in London, making me a magician in London Ontario

The children really “light up” when they see a pirate marching around. I perform family friendly magic that gets the children really excited. The Make a wish Foundation is the only group I currently volunteer for. All my free time goes to them. If you have an event you would like to hire me for, or would like more information, please contact me today!

Reading Treasures literacy based pirate themed magic show a hit at libraries across Canada

Entertaining and educational magic shows are always a big hit at libraries and schools across Ontario and Canada. Captain Corbin  the magical pirate enjoys customizing his shows to add that educational aspect. Reading treasures is a pirate themed magic show with a lot of literacy based magic effects in the show. The pirate Captain Corbin uses his pirate magic book and gets the children involved in the show helping him. During the interactive pirate magic show Children’s entertainer Corbin has all kinds of fun with magic. Magic tricks that involve spelling, reading and literacy is the focus of the show and all the children learn that reading is a Treasure! Captain Corbin tells the children that books are just like treasure chests, when you open both you find the treasure inside. With books, the story inside is the treasure. All the children have a lot of fun and make memories that last a long, long time. Having Captain Corbin come to your school or library is a sure fire way to put a smile on every Childs face. During March Break 2019 Captain Corbin will be sailing to the Chatham-kent libraries to perform his Reading Treasures show for all the children there. I hope to see everyone at my Chatham library magic shows in March of 2019

Magic pirate strolling close up magic show wandering pirate character Captain Corbin

A strolling magic show performance is a lot different from a magic and illusion show on stage. There is less work setting up the show, as with a strolling performance I’m ready as soon as I’m in costume. A stage show however is not better or worse then the strolling wandering magic show, it’s just different. A strolling magic show performance is perfect for events where there is a lot going on, the attendees are all over a wide area, there is no performance stage or many other reasons. Recently I performed my strolling pirate magic show in St. Thomas Ontario at the Joe thorton community centre arena.

A magic and illusion show may take over an hour to set up the show. preparing equipment, sound systems, curtains etc. A strolling performance is almost good to go as soon as I arrive. When I recently performed in St. Thomas I was able to walk right into the event and begin as soon as I marched in the doors. And I did march in. I marched in to pirate music! Before I arrived on sight I stopped nearby for lunch and was able to change into my pirate shirt. That allowed me to be able to quickly hop out of my vehicle and put on the accessories in the parking lot. My pirate sash, hat and baldric was all I needed. When I stroll around the event performing magic I like to have a table to travel with me to perform on. It’s not required, but it helps when I want to show more formal pieces of close up magic. After experimenting with a variety of smaller tables I decided authenticity counts and I now use a huge 60 gallon oak wine barrel on wheels! this thing is big and to see a pirate pushing around a huge barrel is quite a site. The barrel also has a door which allows me to fill it with my equipment and a small sound system. Something I would not be able to do with a smaller table. So in the parking lot of the Joe thorton community center I finish my costume, remove my barrel from the vehicle, turn on my sound system which plays nautical themed music and I push the unit up to and through the front doors making quite the entrance as a pirate with great background magic. After my grand entrance the performance begins and I wander around the room performing my incredible close up magic on top of my barrel and in the spectators hands. Strolling pirate magic makes a huge impression and creates fun memories that will last a very very long time!

Magic shows at birthday parties across Ontario

One of my great pleasures is traveling to all my pirate friends wherever they may be and performing Magic shows at birthday parties. A bit of birthday party magic for them on their special days. Due to travel costs I don’t often get to do this for birthdays outside of Ontario, but inside of Ontario I am kept busy sailing me four wheeled ship to all the major towns, cities and countrysides of this province to perform. Magic shows at birthday parties are a lot of fun.

Magic shows at birthday parties

A pirate themed Magic shows at birthday parties is special. As a result, The show has a much more personal feel. Very interactive I get the children involved in the show. Especially the birthday child and we have a pirate party that will be remembered for a long time after.

I have two different sized birthday parties to suit most needs. The Deluxe party has a lot of interaction. I often use 3-4 children during the show as assistants in the show. The Birthday child plays a very special role in the magic show finale, which is often a small illusion.

More information including my touring schedule can be found on my facebook page Captain Corbin

I like to surprise the birthday child with an illusion. However for the last 10 years or so I’ve left that choice up to the birthday child. It’s fun to give the birthday child an option of what illusion they would like. Some of my choices include making their head disappear, then passing a dozen swords through it, levitating the child in the air and sawing the child in half. Often the birthday child requests I saw their sister in half at the show!

There are lots of options for a custom performance as well. Early booking is highly recommended, not only to ensure availability but the sooner you book the more time I have to customize the birthday party magic show to be perfect to your event.
