We had the absolute joy of hiring Heather Magic for a private family celebration -- an 80th birthday and a 55th birthday. Heather created two completely different sets of magic: an intimate close-up show before dinner, and a stage performance after dessert. Both were mind-blowing, joyful, and full of laughter. What made it unforgettable was how personalized it was. Heather seamlessly wove our family history and traditions into her mind-reading performance -- from milestone ages to years of marriage to the phrase we always say, 'It's just the math.' It felt like the magic was designed just for us. Heather is more than an entertainer; she's an experience designer who knows how to make moments meaningful. If you're looking for something extraordinary for a celebration, team event, or gathering of any kind, I can't recommend Heather Magic highly enough. Truly magical in every sense. read more

Wow, Heather was amazing and made my daughter's birthday so special. She was so easy to work with, flexible on setting up, and put on a show that was captivating for both kids AND parents! Seriously, the faces in the room said it all. My daughter loves Harry Potter, so Heather came in character and infused special elements from the book into her show -- plus the kids got to learn some of the magic tricks and my daughter now puts on her own magic show for us. I would highly recommend Heather, such a professional and a joy to work with! read more

Recently Heather Rogers performed at the assisted living Frank Residences Her show was fantastic Heather was able to interact on a one on one as well as on stage. Her performance was funny and amazing. I highly recommend hiring her for any event as she adapted to the crowd and they loved her. I would definitely hire her again read more

Heather is amazing!! We hired Heather for a client appreciation event. She was truly the star of the show. She had all ages of guests blown away by her wide variety of tricks. I would highly recommend Heather for events big and small. She is a great entertainer! read more

I stumbled upon Heather's website when reading Jason L's review a while back. I clicked on her website and made a mental note: if ever in the market for a magician... Then, last night, I watched as the funny and talented Ms. Rogers entertained a bunch of yelpers and some yelper offspring. She kept our attention even when we were lured by lots of other enticing attractions... not the least of which is good food and drink (you know how we are about food and drink). Anyway, she has a great style and knows how to make you smile. I didn't put it together... that this lady was the same artist whom I had read about before, until this morning when I Friended her on Yelp and saw her URL. And guess what, she writes good reviews, too. read more

Based upon seeing Heather keep a roomful of 80 children 6 and under completely under her spell at a "Friends of the Library" event two years ago, I hired Heather to perform at my little boy's 5th birthday party today. Trust me when I tell you this: Heather is so engaging, so inventive and good with children that you simply must hire her for your child's next birthday party. Heather called out each child by name and had them help assist her perform a magic trick that simply dazzled. The children were giggly and enraptured and each child felt special - that alone was worth it, to see the smiles on all the children's faces. And the next time your child is misbehaving, you may want to hire Heather to simply find out how, when she says "Legs crossed applesauce!" and "Talking breaks the magic spell!" how she can make a roomful of unruly children snap to silence and rapt attention. Worth every penny and Heather is absolutely wonderful with children - of all ages! read more

I had the priviledge of working with Heather to organize a virtual magic show for our school's community. Heather was super responsive to all communications, always professional and most of all, super personable, kind and sweet. Everyone LOVED her show, which felt fresh and fun. It was also very interactive - so hard to do online... but Heather is a master at engaging everyone. I highly recommend Heather if you're looking for a fun and engaging way to entertain your group. read more

Heather is the most remarkable magician I have ever seen. She has us mesmerized for her entire show with both her manner and her amazing tricks. She would truly be a great addition to any celebration. We are still talking about the great time we had and we will remember this day for a long time. In sum, Heather is, well how can I say it, magical. read more

We recently got married in Palo Alto and hired Heather to perform magic for our ~90 guests during our cocktail hour. Her performances got rave reviews from all of our guests, including people with quite different personalities! She walked up to different groups of people talking to perform her tricks, but at one point drew in a crowd of about 20 people. She also showed up a bit early and since, she was there anyway and the cocktail hour had already gotten started, decided to just start entertaining a bit early. Lastly, she was very accommodating in avoiding one of our special guests (who sadly, was not a fan of the magician idea, but who was won over after the fact by all the rave reviews from our guests). We recommend hiring Heather! read more

I came across Heather Rogers at the Yelp Helps event. She was an interesting person, had pig tails that went up and stayed up and had a weird outfit. i guess so people would know she's a magician? Haha. So this magician "read my soul," saying I had a lot of "light," that there are no limits that stop me, that my family and friends cherish me and I am very "cherished," that I am very interesting. All of that was true, but it seems like something you can BS. If she was bs'ing she was a really good actor. But what was crazy was that I drew the Charmed symbol and hid it, put it next to my heart, and she was so close to drawing what I drew almost exactly. That amazed me. It amazed me how she knew my best friend Mel was an artist and guessed her number was 15. And how she also made some guy's glasses float. It could have been magnets? Idk. But "reading the soul" was pretty crazy, and I kind of wanted more from "reading my soul." She knew my friend was an artist, how come she didn't know I was a musician? But I'd say she was a pretty good magician. I'd want to see what else she has up her sleeve! read more

Heather is great! I worked with Heather to set up a magic show as part of proposing to my girlfriend. She was amazing! She was very enthusiastic about working with me from the moment I contacted her, which meant a lot to me. The idea was to have Heather stationed in the GG Park and have my girlfriend and I walk by her. She would then get our attention by performing some effects and then start a show for us with each effect incorporating details about my girlfriend and our relationship. Heather did this flawlessly; and just as planned my girlfriend really didn't catch on to what was happening until the very end of the show. She was a pleasure to work with and readily available to discuss how I could incorporate my information with her effects. I reached out to a few magicians in the Bay Area before finding Heather and I'm happy I didn't stop till I found her because I knew immediately from her professionalism and passion that she would work out the best.. Thanks so much Heather! read more

I first came across Heather Rogers 2+ years ago when she entertained a group of adults and kids at the Bat Mitzvah of my daughter's friend. Wandering through the crowd entertaining during the "cocktail" hour, she wow'd the masses . . . Fast-forward to a party held by five families in honor of our children's graduation from the 8th grade, and Heather once again did a GREAT job! With people ranging in age from 3 to -- well, let's just say "grandparents" -- she kept all but the most sarcastic of teenagers enthralled with her magic . . . AND not only did she not let the teens affect the performance but kept the teenagers enthralled with both magic and and humour. I would unhesitatingly recommend her! read more

Magically fabulous! We hired Heather for my son's 4th birthday, and I cannot describe how happy I am that we did! Booking her was easy, she explained everything very clearly, really great communication! She arrived early, allowing herself time for set up. We had around 30 kids at the party, ranging from 2-9 y/o and many adults. They were ALL hooked! all the kids had a chance to participate, while the birthday boy was clearly the center of attention, which made him feel very special! At the end of the show he got his special magic wand ( which he put by his bed tonight, the way he does with his most favorite stuff ) and a certificate that he proudly hung on the refrigirator! The show was great, heather was so nice and easy to deal with, and I recommend her to anyone! She's MAGIC! read more

Heather was great! She was super professional, entertaining, and the kids loved her. Even the adults watched intently ^_^ My daughter loved doing the levitation trick and still adds, "being a magician" to the list of things she wants to be when she grows up. It had been an intense, activity-packed birthday party (my bad lol) and I was grateful to hand over the reins to Heather for an hour. If you get the right package, even your party favors can be provided by Heather! Bravo - good show! We highly recommend her. read more

We hired Heather to perform at a very large corporate networking event that our company was catering and coordinating. We weren't 100% sure how this client's guests would take to a magician, but we quickly realized that they LOVED Heather. She first came and did a mini show for us and even being the only two in the room and just inches from her, we still couldn't figure out how she did her tricks! I'm still trying to figure it out and will for sure have her back so I can study her quick hands again. At the event she was very entertaining and handled our hard to please crowd with the ease of a true professional. Even the ones that didn't want to like her tricks were quickly pulled right in and couldn't stop laughing along with the crowd. She has such a warm personality that everyone is comfortable around her and felt at ease to enjoy her performances. She mingled around the crowd for a few hours and I can't think of one time I didn't see a small gathering forming around her. I would highly recommend Heather to anyone looking for a fun, unique, and professional performer. read more

I am a wedding planner (Behl Events) and I recently had the pleasure of working with Heather during a large wedding in San Francisco. She filled a multitude of roles by being both an entertainer/magician as well as the Reception's emcee. During the event's Cocktail Hour, she walked around amongst the guests and performed interactive magic. Guests were extremely captivated and highly entertained, to say the least. During the Reception, her performance was highly relevant to the event because she connected each trick to love and relationship concepts. Our client was highly challenging and kept changing logistics throughout the night, but Heather remained composed and handled each change with a smile and incredible grace. I would LOVE to work with her again! read more

I first meet Heather at the Oakland Zoo a few years ago. Since then we have worked together at special events and there is nobody like her. Her character, enthusiasm and talent to perform magic is incredible. I love watching, working and being memorized in her company! If you are looking for a great magician, quick change artist or motivational speaker... you can't go wrong with Heather. She is absolutely the best!!! Can't wait until I see her again. 5 stars may not be enough!!!!!!! read more

Heather did a presentation as part of our management meeting. She was right on target with our theme and had energy that went through the roof! read more

Magician Heather Rogers - Making magic wirh managers - Performing Arts Near Me

We hired Heather for our company holiday party. She did close-up magic during the mingling section of the evening and then a magic show after. She is amazing!! She not only did traditional magic (card tricks, etc), but she also did some energy reading and was spot on every time! We were all amazed (even those skeptical ones in the bunch)! On top of her awesome magic skills, Heather weaves in a great comedy act. She also did a lot of research about the company and wove that in to her performance. We were all super impressed with her! Heather interacts well with the audience and will leave all your guests with a memorable evening of magic! read more

This was the third time we have hired Heather. See does great magic tricks, gets everyone involved, is funny, and helps everyone have a great time. She did a terrific job getting the kids involved that were resistive next thing you know they are up front doing the magic with her. She made this a very special birthday party. I really liked the fact that she really cares and showed her love for the special people we take care of. She is one in a million. You will not be disapointed. Thanks Heather you were great. read more

She's all that. We selected Magician Rogers based on her reviews and we weren't disappointed. I have seen magicians at libraries in Oakland and they are very entertaining but I don't think I was prepared for this. Rogers had the complete attention of over 24 kids for the complete show. My newly turned six year old overcame her shyness and even joined her on stage more than once. Rogers act was perfectly in tune with the interests of the kids, but she also baffled the adults. Parents came up to me afterwards to indicate they were impressed and inquired how I found her. All I can say is that she is incredible and I feel very lucky to have booked her. You will not be disappointed. read more

Magician Heather Rogers - Benicia, CA October 2011 - Performing Arts Near Me

Heather delivered a great show for 40 kids and 30 adults. We saw all the good reviews on Yelp, and Heather clearly deserves them. Our party was in building that was an echo chamber, meaning that Heather needed to keep the kids and adults from talking out of turn so that everyone could enjoy the show. She deftly handled that, and all of her tricks, dances, and other entertaining elements. She kept the kids riveted, had them participating in the magic, and talking about the show after. Multiple parents came up to me during the performance to say (whisper) "where did you find her, she's great". That really says it all. read more

I have had the pleasure of booking Heather Rogers for corporate and family events for nearly a decade. Heathers talents and integrity as a performer has clients requesting her back over and over again. Heathers specialties are up-close strolling magic, magic shows, and her incredible quick change routine. I continue to applaud Heather as she continues to strive for excellence in her field of professional magic and performing arts. If you're looking to be entertained at your next event, Heather will not dissapoint! read more

Heather performed at my son's Harry Potter theme party on Saturday. When I originally emailed her a month or so ago, she called me right away. She was so warm and happy over the phone. Even though her act cost more than the other magicians whom I considered, because of our phone conversation, I wanted to hire her. She arrived on time, in costume, as Professor Piewacket. We had about 30 kids and 10 adults watching her show. She captured everyone's attention. She is very very entertaining. The only thing that my husband and I were disappointed in was the levitation act. It was pumped up to be this 'wow finale magic act.' We paid extra for it. It was more of a counter-balance trick rather than a rising levitation illusion. Other than that, we were ALL fascinated by her humor and talent. I highly recommend Heather. read more

Heather is superb at her craft. She brought an extraordinary quality to my event. She understood what my needs were and tailored her performance specifically to my audience. I love how she tied in my goals for my audience with her talk. I appreciate her timeliness and her positivity. Her show was engaging and magical. I definitely will book her again, as well as, recommend her performance to anyone who wants to bring excitement to their party. read more

Heather 'Magic' Rogers did a magic workshop for our Brownie girl scout Troop a few months back. She was fantastic! She worked so professionally with our large group of restless girls and managed to keep them engaged from beginning to end (no small task!) She was warm and funny, very responsive to emails and calls prior to the event. I would definitely recommend Heather for your entertainment needs! read more

Heather Rogers is a gem! Do no think twice before hiring her for your event. Not only is her magic truly amazing, but she brings great heart, humor, depth and creativity to what she does. We hired her for our daughters 6th birthday party and every adult in the room was as moved as the children. She is a really special and unique person and you will honestly be dazzled by her energy and talent. read more

I hired Heather to perform for our corporate Halloween party and she was great! She is very thorough and friendly on the phone for the initial setup/inquiry on dates available and very respondent via email as well. I highly recommend her for children's parties, corporate events or private events as she REALLY delivers! read more

Heather Magic is absolutely incredible. Besides being one of the nicest people I have talked to, she was also very professional. I work for a religious organization and she was extremely accommodating. If she had questions about our rules and regulations she ask pre-performance so she wouldn't offend anyone. We called her a week before we needed her and she was able to fit us into her (busy) performance schedule. Her show was excellent, everyone loved it. There was a wide range of ages (from 1.5 yrs to 15 yrs) and she made sure to include everyone in the show. The children are talking about how they can become magicians now. I would highly recommend Heather Magic to anyone needing entertainment, not only for children but adults as well. read more

Heather also does Personal readings, I was amazed at how she felt the insane urgency of my situation. I could tell she was making sure to be firm with me, she didn't baby me or comfort me. She told me the truth and gave me strength by helping me realize that I have SO Much to look forward to and incredible safety net under me (I really needed help to see that because I was quietly panicking) She really Opened my eyes. The reading was MORE than what I thought Id get because it came with a LOT of truth bombs, clarification, validation AND suddenly a BONUS---------Coaching! I hear her voice when I have doubts and it gives me such resolve. I really appreciate her way of reading because it felt emotionally complete. Ive had readings before and they felt like a waiting game for things to come but Heathers reading came with closure. That is so important and I thank her from the bottom of my heart. read more

Heather was terrific for my daughter's 6th birthday party. Heather kept 20 youngsters entertained for 50 minutes, and then patiently made animal balloons for them. She is very personable and friendly, and makes sure to involve everyone in her show. The adults enjoyed the show as well. It was a great party. Heather's repertoire includes juggling, at which she's quite adept. She also does other routines. I highly reccommend her. read more

There are magicians, and then there is Heather Rogers. And there are magic shows and then there is Magic by Heather. Yes, Heather Rogers stands apart from anything we have ever seen. The word "fascinating" doesn't describe her program with justice. Our party was to celebrate a 50th birthday celebration. The mixed crowd was entirely at ease with Heather. There were several forms of entertainment in a restaurant setting and Heather's "walk around" program kept our guests more than delighted. It marked the event with that something extra special we were looking to make sure it had. Don't have any reservations about reserving Heather Rogers for your next event. read more

What fun to see a professional architect (retired) stand 3 feet from Heather Rogers and be totally mesmorized. I recently hosted a "table top" party where I wanted the guests to take away a special experience and they certainly did with Heather's help. I would highly recommend Heather to help you create an unforgettable occasion. Carol G. read more

Heather is awesome! The very best thing about her show is that adults are just as entertained as are the kids. Her magic is great, but it's only half of her show. She is witty and funny, and makes sure everyone has a good time. She's kind of like the best of the Pixar movies- her jokes and tricks can be enjoyed on multiple levels. Entertainment of this caliber is hard to find. Heather hearkens back to a time when an entertainer was an artist, skilled in the craft of transporting the spectator to another place. I can't say enough good things about Heather and her show. I guarantee you that, be it a kid's birthday party, a work party or a get-together with your soccer team, if you get Heather to provide the entertainment everyone will walk away feeling like they had one of the most memorable parties ever. read more

Heather was hired for our daughter's 9 year old birthday party. She entertained 12 girls for over an hour and they were enthralled the entire time. The adults present commented on her positive messaging to the girls about life and to treat everyone well. Magic tricks & dancing were abundant! The birthday girl and the guests were all involved in at least one trick, too. Also, she was very professional and timely in responding to any questions or needs. I would recommend her highly! Lynn A. read more

Heather performed at my 6 years old daughter's birthday and she could entertain perfectly all the kids and the parents at the same time. She could get all the kids attention easily and we were all amazed by her tricks (she mixes traditional magic but also "mind reading" that would blow your mind!). She is really energetic, playful, reliable, so I would definitely recommend her and use her again! read more

First, Heather is AMAZING as both performer/entertainer and mentor/teacher. I am beyond impressed with her and so grateful! (And, in case you're wondering about my credentials to offer a review: I have a PhD in Performance Studies from Cal and teach public speaking, soooo critiquing performance is what I do!) On to details: I first encountered Heather Rogers at a friend's 50th celebration. She had been hired to mingle amongst the crowd and perform tricks. As a performer and entertainer, Heather was great. She is incredible personable and engaging, easy to talk to, and great to interact with. Her performance style is friendly and dynamic. I was THRILLED to meet her as my older daughter (now 10) has been doing magic for years, and there are just NO female magicians. I then learn that she offers lessons in El Cerrito just a few miles from my house in Berkeley! TOTAL WIN. Sydney has improved a million-fold thanks to Heather. Heather is a wonderful teacher and mentor. She knows how to connect and engage. She recognizes the importance of creating a persona--a key element of any performance milieu--in addition to learning and performing techniques. I could go on and on about how amazing, wonderful, talented, and just simply AWESOME Heather is, but I am sure there is a character limit.. And I'm sure you stopped reading by now ;-) read more

She gave me a million dollars. I met Heather at the EB YEE and she entertain the kids and the adults. We had alot of fun with her and everyone was jealous of my million dollars. Thanks Heather and a great show. read more

So after I posted my initial review, Heather contacted me to express her sincerest apologies. To my ultimate surprise, her customer service really exceeded my expectations. I still told her that I was disappointed with her show and she was so eager to resolve the issue. Without hesitation, she gave me a refund for her performance, which I wasn't really expecting. Customer service like that is definitely hard to find these days. Based on all of her reviews, she seems to deliver at every show...so I would consider hiring her again. read more

Heather Rogers is absolutely wonderful! I was looking for an entertainer for my assisted living facility for our 4th of July bash last minute. Heather totally came through for us and provided a great show. We have had magicians in the past but you could pretty much figure out their tricks. I was stunned by lots of the tricks and left wondering how she pulled them off. My residents really enjoyed watching the show and stayed awake for it (this is HUGE in assisted living)! I will definitely be calling Heather back for more shows over the next year. She is great for adults as well as kids. I loved how she kept getting the audience involved, and she really knew how to read the crowd. Great Job Heather!! I would recommend her to everyone. She is wonderful. If you go on her website you can see she has different shows, and I would love to see more, as I think that my residents would too. read more
