as move from one table to the next to
perform the magic tricks with a more
personalized touch. We spoke with
magician, mind-reader and comedian
extraordinaire Josh Beckerman.
Urbanette Magazine:
Tell us about
your business. How did you get into it
and what do you offer?
Josh Beckerman:
I’m a professional
entertainer who intertwines close-up
magic, mind-reading, and comedy at
events and parties around the world.
I’ve been entertaining since I was born
and got into magic at the age of four —
28 years ago.
Urbanette:
Having a magician at a
wedding party can be pretty unusual.
Why do you think newlyweds should
have a magician at their event?
Josh:
I really label myself as an
entertainer. I don’t think all couples
should have magicians at weddings.
If you do want some added
entertainment besides a DJ and a band,
it is a fabulous idea. I do recommend
meeting with the magician or
entertainer first, to make sure you guys
are all on the same wavelength.
Urbanette:
You perform at
weddings. Do you have a specific
wedding repertoire, or if not, what
do you usually bring to this kind of
occasion?
Josh:
All of the weddings I have
entertained at, the couple has
booked me for the cocktail hour,
and then has asked me to stay for
the entire night. I’m not just doing
magic tricks, I really am engaging
the audience, and adding humor
to mind blowing feats of magic and
mind-reading. The bride and groom
always notice how much fun their
guests are having and it’s a great
added element to the party.
