Arthur delivers skill-based, fast-moving, intriguing, and astonishing sleight-of-hand magic and mentalism. His comedy magic show is packed with feats of the impossible, audience participation, smart humor, and tricks no others perform. It is a positive, inspiring, and unforgettable experience.
Tricks with cards, coins, borrowed watches, and rings highlight a performance filled with audience participation and true entertainment. Coins vanish and reappear, a comedy of errors occurs with audience members watch bottles appear out of nowhere (only to magically come back together in an impossible place), and, if permissible, fire is eaten like a snack!
Performing the impossible, Arthur presents a demonstration of "mentalism" or "mind-reading" that will have your group talking long after the show. He reveals audience member thoughts and makes predictions that prove true. Arthur performs these amazing feats using psychology, "sleight of mind", and mental misdirection. The result is profound and thought provoking.
Arthur’s use of humor throughout every show is clean, quick, sophisticated, engaging, and non-offensive. Comedy occurs as a result of the situations which unfold during the course of each performance! Audience members are always involved, but never insulted or embarrassed (well, not too bad anyway!).
Arthur has extensive experience in stress management and anxiety relief. He spent seven years as a magical laughter therapist for a hospital in Silverton, Oregon. His job was to bring laughter, humor, and wonder to patients who were under severe stress due to the procedures they anticipated and the anxiety of being in a hospital. Arthur used humor and sleight of hand magic to illustrate and facilitate a healthy mindset of being in the moment, experiencing wonder, and utilizing laughter to relieve stress and bring in joy. During his seven years at the Hospital, Arthur also taught therapeutic breathing to those who struggled with anxiety and pneumonia.
Arthur comes from humble roots. Raised on a small farm in rural Oregon, his family has been in the dairy industry for over a century. Arthur lived and loved the farm life: milking cows, bucking hay, moving irrigation lines, harvesting crops, and driving combines. As a young boy, he saw his first magic show at a local fair and held that fascination into adulthood.
Arthur currently resides in Atlanta, GA with his wife and six children.
Arthur Atsma has recently performed in: Alabama, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Virginia, just to name a few.
