Tom von Strong

An American-born citizen, raised in Cold-War Europe as a U.S. Military Brat. Once a jack-of-all trades, searching for his passion. Now, combining his vast experiences and talents to be a Professional Magician / Children and Family Entertainer, and a member of the Society of American Magicians.

He often performs under the stage name "The 'Talented Tom' von Strong", playing the straight man to "Ting Tang, The Magical Mischieous Monkey." Specializing in creating successful, personalized, entertaining events. Helping audience volunteers to shine and grow, by having a positive experience. Engaging audiences with family-friendly, age-appropriate humor --- creating a magical, safe environment--- that is sarcasm free, embarrassment free, and fun for all. If your last event left you feeling stressed and looking frazzled like you might have been hearding cats then hire a true professional and allow us to make both you and your event sparkle; you sit back and enjoy the show. We know how to control the situation. This means smooth sailing for you and all of your guests. Plenty of photo opportunities, laughs, "wow" moments, and slapstick humor. Most of all, memorable moments that everyone will talk about for years to come.

With different shows, specifically designed for targeted age groups, he understands the cognitive abilities, attention-spans, strengths, and weaknesses that come into play with each audience. Each event will also be personalized for the guest of honor. Shy kids are our specialty. By the end of the show they will want to be called up to perform their special part of the show. Especially after seeing the other volunteers having so much fun.

Quality and professionalism abound from the high quality public address system, to the professionally produced royalty-free music (written and performed by a composer that has written hit songs for many Grammy Award winning artists.) What does royalty-free music mean? It means that there are no extra-fees or copyright violations for performing them publicly at your event. It also means that we are respecting performance rights and copyright laws.

Tom von Strong also participates in the Society of American Magicians Veterans Program, a program where members donate performances of magic to veterans and active soldiers; to bring a bit of wonder and enjoyment into their lives, as his way of saying thank you for all that they did for us.
