If you're looking for entertainment and a fun magic show for your child's birthday party, you've found it here! Thanks for stopping by.
Markus Steelgrave (also known as "Almodarr") is THE fun, funny and hugely entertaining children's magician for Maine.
His friendly way with kids and exuberant personality will help you make your child's party the most magical, memorable,
special one ever! This is kid's party entertainment at its best--affordable, hilarious, hassle-free and FUN!
Magical Birthday Parties is a division of
Almodarr's Grand Illusion, East Waterboro, Maine.

Children's party entertainment by Markus is fun!

Magical Birthday Party performances are geared to the age and gender of the Birthday Child. Let us know some fun "tidbits" about your child beforehand (favorite activities, pets, foods, TV shows, etc.), and Markus will try to incorporate them into a personalized show that has an extra-special appeal. He has a whole roomful of props, toys, and other unusual items--plus a surprising familiarity with kids' interests (he's a big kid himself!!). The show is high-energy, sometimes off-the-wall; it'll leave everyone howling with laughter! Parents are always amazed at Markus' kid-handling skills; as you know, it takes something special to relate to them as well as he does.

Where Will We Travel?	Magical Birthday Party performances are generally limited to within 60 miles of East Waterboro, Maine. For an estimate of your distance and mileage charges, check with MapQuest. Within this range, we can perform for birthday parties in Southern Maine, as well as parts of New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
What's the Charge for Mileage?	Mileage is currently 50 cents per round-trip mile. The first 10 miles in each direction are FREE! If you're located more than 60 miles from East Waterboro, ME, there is an extra per-mile charge...however, we unfortunately can not travel more than 85 miles for a birthday party performance (sorry!).

If you want professional entertainment, wouldn't you hire a professional?
To your child, his or her birthday is the most special, "magical" day of the year...as a mom or dad planning a birthday party, your child's happiness is the #1 consideration. When it comes to entertainers, price isn't always an accurate gauge of "good". There are some wonderful performers who don't charge a lot but deliver a super show; and there are some high-priced ones who may look great "on paper", but just can't maintain the attention of a young audience.

Of course we hope you'll hire us, but for the sake of a successful party we hope you'll make your decision based on how you feel about a performer's credentials and integrity, and how he or she will "deliver the goods" at your child's birthday party. Markus has given thousands of birthday party performances and is a proven hit with both kids and parents. See lots more Parent Comments--and PLEASE call or e-mail anytime if you have questions, or even if you just want to talk!

Experience is also important; you don't want someone at your party who's "eaten alive" by enthusiastic party-goers! Markus has over 40 years of actual experience "in the business" (not just 40 years since he learned his first trick)--entertaining kids is something he does especially well. He's won awards throughout the country for Stage Magic and Close-Up Magic, so you can be sure his shows are fun for parents too!

Magic is not part-time, "after work or on weekends" with us. We perform for a living. Our livelihood literally depends on making sure you're totally satisfied--with the show, with the whole process of working with us, and with the end result of the laughter and joy of your child and his/her friends! Markus's warm, friendly, inspired manner with children can't be topped; Angelique is pretty and approachable by even the shyest kids. We also don't offer lots of "free" extras just to get the job. As you'd expect, the cost of any "free" stuff is built into the price; ask any dealership who sells you a car with a "free warranty"!

Markus' love for children and for entertaining kids is the biggest factor that makes him the ideal magician for your child's birthday party. He has fun, and they have fun. It's win-win! However, as his schedule is filled with performances for corporate clients, resorts, schools, and other venues, we strongly suggest that you call to check availability before you finalize your party date. Also, as weekends are often booked months in advance, consider hosting a weekday or after-school party!

Don't miss out on the fun. After laughing themselves silly and having a terrific time, every guest at your party (adults too!) will leave saying, "This was the best party I've ever been to!"
But most important of all, you'll be hearing "Thank you!!" for weeks to come.

With Children's Birthday Party Entertainer & Magician, Markus (Almodarr) Steelgrave!
