FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS




What is Prestino's Fee?

The price of the show greatly depends on how far Prestino has to travel, and what package you want.  For an exact price it is best to call Prestino and create a personalized package for your needs.  You can call him at 516-455-2187


How Long Is Prestino's Show?

Prestino's show is designed to run close to 45 mintues, but this also depends on the audience's level of involvement.  If the crowd is really into things, it may go longer!  But Prestino is always sure to respect other scheduled performers and events.


Is The Close-Up Better Than A Show?

Again, this question is best answered over the phone.  It really depends on the nature of your event.  If your guests are spread out at tables in different rooms, or mostly wandering, the walk-around magic might be better.


Can Balloons Be Made With Close-UP?

Yes!  Prestino walks from table to table or group to group with everything he needs in his pockets to make magic and balloons!


Is There Any Audience Particiapation?

There is a TON of audience participation!  Prestinos sees to it that the audience becomes part of the show!  Throughout most of the show, Prestino calls up many members of the audience to help him with tricks, and makes sure to create funny and memorable photo opportunities. Prestino wants to be sure your guests young and not-so-young have a great time!


Will My Child Feel Special On Their Day?

Absolutely!  If Prestino is performing for your child's special day, your child will help Prestino with many of his tricks!  Not to worry if your child is shy, Prestino won't force your child to stand up in front of the crowd.  Prestino wants to make sure your child has the most magical time he/she can!  There are plenty of other ways to make the guest of honor the star!


Does Prestino Use Live Animals?

YES!  Prestino has recently added a new star to his show!  The new star is Beans the magic rabbit!  Though it is Prestino that pulls the rabbit from the hat, there is some disagreement between them as to who is the real star of the show.



Prestino and Beans are presentlly
in negotiations over whether or not Beans' name should be added to the letterhead, and if so, who's name should come first.  But Beans certainly agrees that Prestino is friendly to animals, and is sure to treat the non-human star of his show with the propper love and respect!


Is Prestino's Show Clean?

Very Clean!  Prestino performs a family style show that is perfect for any occasion or age mix. 


Does Prestino Dress Neatly?

Very neatly!    Prestino is aware that
clothes can make an impression, and that his costume is just as important as any other item that appears in his show.

TESTIMONIALS


I hired Prestino to attract people to my pizza shop for our grand opening, and what a great decision it was to hire him!  He really knows how to draw a crowd.  Prestino's people skills are sharp and his magic is first rate.  The kids love the balloon animals and Beans the rabbit!  I'm definitely going to invite him back in the near future.

I run a children's party center, and I called Prestino to fill in for another magician we usually work with that couldn't make the show that day.  I was a little nervous about hiring Prestino because I had never worked with him before, but it turned out to be a huge success!  The adults were were just as mesmerized as the kids, and the store got repeated calls for him!  He knows how to keep the fine balance between children and grownup entertainment!  His show has something for everyone!

We needed another instructor, so I called Prestino to teach a children's magic class in the Continuing Education Program in 2003.  I had only heard about Prestino from the dean of Continuing Education, who saw him perform at a party.  The dean gave me Prestino's business card and asked me to find out if he was available to teach a class.  Prestino turned out to live up to, if not exceed expectations that were held for him.  Prestino's performance skills and ability to keep his audience entertained are highly refined and engaging.  Children love learning from him!  The few times that I stopped by his classroom, I was delighted to find that even the childrens' parents were mesmerized by his performance.  I am convinced that Prestino would make a great addition to your event, party or restaurant and it is without reservation that I recommend him highly!

What a great entertainer!  I run a July 4th party each year on a pier in Manhattan.  It's a perfect location to view the Macy's Fireworks show. Unfortunately, due to NYPD security measures, guests must arrive on the pier 3-4 hours before the fireworks display. Keeping guests entertained for 3-4 hours is hard.  Prestino has "worked" the 3-4 hrs. before the fireworks at this party for the past four years and each year I am amazed at how well he keeps the 400 or so guests involved as they wait for the fireworks show.  His close up magic is excellent and the kids love the balloon animals.  As long as I run the July4th bar-b-que, Prestino will be working for me.

Not only did the kids love him, but the adults loved him too!  I hired Prestino to perform at our Fire Department's yearly summer barbecue.  He walked table to table doing close-up magic for everyone and I couldn't believe the laughter and sounds of excitement that came from each of the small crowds and tables he stopped at.  Weeks later I was still getting compliments on how I chose such a great magician.  I recommend him highly.

I hired Prestino to perform for my son's first birthday at my church.  He walked table to table and amazed my guests!  There were many good reasons to have a good time at my son's party, and I'm pleased Prestino was one of them!

Simply AMAZING! I've seen Prestino perform on a number of occasions and I was blown away by his performance every time. No matter what the age group, venue or occasion, Prestino is a crowd pleaser. From small crowds to an audience of thousands Prestino puts on a smile on every face. Whether it's balloon animals, live animals, card tricks, and much more, Prestino has got an endless repertoire of talent to keep you and your guests entertained for hours on end. Don't gamble on the entertainment for that special event. Have a consummate showman like Prestino take care of it for you and be guaranteed a day to remember.
