The Magic of Joe Ferranti has entertained numerous audiences for over a decade. He has gained a reputation as one of the best in Close Up/Comedy Magic in the Greater Boston area.

We would love to have a conversation with you about your event. Please call 339-927-4710 for a no pressure consultation.
Just like going to the movies...you are in charge of the outcome. (well usually, sometimes you may walk out of a theater, wondering what the &*^# you just saw.) but more often than not you got what you paid for. Comedy, romance, mystery, thriller...you get the picture...pun not intended.
So as in movies, magicians entertain with very different themes. Mine is simple, exciting magic with spectator interaction, smiles, laughter and some screams of surprise.
Obviously I will not be producing doves, sawing a lady in two...the list of things I will not do is endless.
What I will do is perform clean adult entertainment, with a twist of magic. guaranteed satisfaction, unless you want a rabbit in a hat. I don't do that.

The "Birthday Card Trick."
One of the highlights of Joe Ferranti's Birthday performance is his signature "Birthday Card Effect". This is a special trick that he has created and kept secret for himself. It involves the birthday person choosing a card from a deck and signing it with a marker. Without giving away the surprise, you can see the excitement in the videos here. it ends with a personalized birthday card which is a stunning souvenir that the birthday person will keep!

The "Birthday Girl" with her souvenir personalized Card.
Wedding Magic is growing at a rapid pace in the U.S. Thanks to the positive exposure on Television shows such as , Penn and Teller "Fool Us", AGT...and more.
As a Close Up Magician serving Boston and its surrounding areas, I once spent time educating clients that "Magic" is not just for kids, and it is suitable for adult functions. This is most often a point of discussion.
Today, the client often understands that a professional Magician is just the missing piece to set their event at a level where it is exciting and memorable beyond their expectations.
I would be happy to do that for you...see some video. visit www.ferrantimagic.com
Here are some highlights of an Adult Birthday party for 6 people, featuring a Close Up Magic performance.
Be it 6 people or five hundred, Close Up Magic is always a win for your event. You can bring smiles, laughter and amazement to your guests within minute if you hire the right performer.
Let us discuss your event, with a no pressure consultation. You deserve the best, give us a call.
The reasons for performing magic are many. Although, not the only reason...I enjoy the responses from my audiences.
These are not tales from the imagination, or the fish tale the gets larger each time you tell it. The proof is in the videos. Video footage supports your testimonials, in fact they often are the deal maker.
But how and why the over the top reactions? One would like to believe that there performance is so wonderful that you are solely responsible. If only...even "novice/poor" performances can get laughter and shouting. This is simply the rug factor...pull the rug out from the audience and watch the free fall. It never fails, similar to hiding behind a door and jumping out to surprise your friend. You will get a reaction. Almost every magic trick ends in a surprise...or an anticipation of the "impossible" is looming, as much as you fell, "No Way!"
Now, when you mix in the "cafeteria factor" you will be entering an entirely augmented response. I refer to the cafeteria, as think back at my school days and also my time working in a school environment. Can you remember how many times you were told to quiet down. It is 100% reliable...put 50 or more kids in a cafeteria and the noise level expands like watching a balloon expand. The room just gets louder and louder as everyone competes to be heard from the person they sit next to.
As you grow older, you realize this is universal, and applies to adults as well. See yourself perform table magic at a Wedding. here's what you've got going for you. Everybody is there expecting and wanting a good time. The rest is easy, your only job is to not "F" up the mood.
The next reliable factor is the allowance to let go, (vocally or otherwise) to the magic experience. Notice how loud the room is...your spectators are permitted to make all the noise they want in response to your "tricks."
Most people who see the videos imagine everybody is drunk...an easy audience. thank goodness that is not the case. In my work, I've observed at most people drink less than a typical guest did 30 years ago. That's not to say that no one over indulges. I can tell you about a guy who bit my sharpie in half!
I always remember the advice from Doc Eason. ( A Bar Magician at the time) He warned not to get a fat head from the reactions and things your spectators say to you. "You're the best magician I've ever seen." the reality is often you are the only magician they have seen perform live.
So with ego under control, here's a video of the "cafeteria factor". BTW, there was a band contributing to the noise. Hence, even louder responses.
Best Wishes,
Joe

Greater Boston are Magician Joe Ferranti ferrantimagic.com 339-927-4710
Two, Three minutes...Maybe five!
I have a very short time to entertain a small group of people before I must move on to the next group. No time to spare, right? Right!
while others debate whether "Magic" is an art...or they want to make their audience feel the "awe" and experience wonder as if they were a child again. All lofty and worthy goals, but at my age and the type of Magic I perform, I have cut corners to simplify my work.
I have seen the magician who's work is art. (Names are not important.) But my name will never be considered for the title "artist" and that's O.K. because I will never deserve such a title.
I will never strive to bring you the feeling of child like wonder, as that's a tall order.
I will also not try to take you away from the problems of your day. There are better methods than that of a brief encounter with a Close Up Magician. If you want to send someone back to another time, the quickest way to arouse that feeling is with music. We've all had that moment when we hear an old song and we recall the joy or pain that is triggered, and attached to an emotion we weren't having a moment before.
If you need to get away from the daily grind, perhaps meditation, or Yoga, and,if you can afford it, a vacation to the ocean.
I will tell you, there are magicians who achieve all these things, but my experience tells me you will see this on a stage, where they have all your attention and the time to create their personal fantasy to take you...to who knows where.
I'm just saying, I can't do that in three minutes. My goal is simple, insure you have fun and are treated with respect. I want you to smile, perhaps laugh or scream. And finally, if I can get you to remember me, perhaps my name as well, but maybe I'm asking too much.
Ahhh, the life of the strolling magician, the court jester perhaps...in it as a choice. The rewards...try it out, I'm sure you'll be pleased.

On most web sites, we all have a page for some photos...me too. When my website first appeared, I had a bunch of little pictures, and if you wanted to see them, you had to "click" each picture to see it. (large)
It was a little "primitive." Hoping a potential client would perform manual labor to see a picture was risking losing their business. We've come a long way since then. See the picture at the top of the blog. (Big enough to see.)
My hope was to get the client to give me 45 seconds of their attention...still that may have been asking too much. It is a 45 second slide show, in which I tried to convey the "Joe Ferranti", magic experience" in a brief, but hopefully entertaining manner. Being a little nostalgic you can see my efforts below.
Best Wishes, Joe Ferranti
