The show runs an hour.

The Amazing Mr. J’s Magic Show is perfect for schools, malls, exhibitions, weddings, festivals, day cares, libraries, grand openings, parades, Christmas parties, Bar/Bat Mitzvah events, and many more! Having performed over 3500+ shows nationwide since 1999, The Amazing Mr. J can create personally customized shows for YOU!

If you are a school or library looking for a show with an educational message for your students, here’s an idea:

‘The Magic of Reading’ is an award-winning educational show for schools and libraries!

‘The Magic of Reading’ is a high-energy, interactive, feel-good magic show with an important, repeated educational message: “Reading is Magic!” and “Readers are Leaders!”. All the magic in the show is custom-themed around the importance of reading, in various aspects of life.

You can use this show to promote literacy month at your school or library, a book fair, author visit, or even special events, like the birthday of Dr. Seuss! (March 2nd)

With the popularity of ‘Harry Potter’, magic and literacy already share a natural marriage in students’ minds. You can easily use ‘The Magic of Reading’ to promote literacy and a magical sharing experience at your school or library.

Each Show Features:

  • FREE school appropriate comic books courtesy of Strange Adventures, Halifax. (Naturally, when one of your students *wins* a free comic book prize in front of all their friends, it makes the reading material extra special, so girls and boys love to read them even more!)
  • An hour of high-energy magic, fun, interactive audience participation, and the positive promotion of literacy.
  • Helpful literacy information for your schools and teachers, plus reading tips for students to take home to their parents.
  • Adaptable to classrooms, libraries, and school gyms for any size audience, or age group, that you need.
  • Extra bonus magic prizes for everyone.

The Amazing
   Mr. J ON

On this Remembrance Day, Dear Friends, let me humbly recommended to you the books📚 of retired Canadian General, and humanitarian activist, Roméo Dallaire.🫡Emotionally, you will find these very challenging reads. But also, infinitely important. You will gain heretofore unknown depths of perception, including deeper levels of empathy, gratitude, and resolve. These books will stick with you forever (as Gen. Dallaire's personal journey has with him).Ultimately, our ongoing honouring, talking with, and reading about our Vets🫡, serves as a profound realization of the precious frailty of Life, while enriching our collective consciousness and relationship with the whole of humanity.His latest book "The Peace" (2024), also offers some much needed HOPE. ⭐️Highest Possible Recommendation.⭐️Keep the Faith, Friends.❤️🇨🇦 ...

You know what's even cooler than kindness?🤔❓️UNEXPECTED, Out-of-the-Blue Kindness.🤗Just received this wonderful message, six months to the day after a Magic Birthday Show performed last April.🎩🪄🐰🕊❤️After a full weekend of Magic Shows on the road (see pics of those super-fun groups attached!), you would think one would be exhausted...but naaaah!☺️ It's amazing how a random thoughtful message takes away your tiredness.💪🙃😃Talk about Magic.🌠Would that we all take a moment to share such words with those whose awesomeness we appreciate.❤️👍(PS- My Annual Christmas card list is over 120 cards this year...hopefully You made the 2024 list...)😉🎅🎄👌"Hi Mr. J,It has been half a year since you came to our place in Wolfville to celebrate our daughter, Izumi’s 10th birthday on April 21st, 2024. My apologies for taking so so so long to send this message to you. (I bet 99.99% people would send you a thank you note right away.) Firstly, thank you so much again for your wonderful performance that made her milestone 10th birthday something special she will remember for the rest of her life. Everyone, both the kids and the adults, enjoyed your show and were talking about it even in the following week. You were so entertaining and brilliant with kids. Michael and I were wondering if our daughter Izumi had any idea that you were coming to the party, as we wanted to make it a total surprise to her, since she requested a surprise as her gift. She told me later that until she saw you, she was panicking a bit as she didn’t know what activities the kids were going to do at the party. Every year we set a theme and did home-made activities related to it, but this year she wasn’t involved in it, kept in dark. I told her that this year’s theme will be a Magic. When she saw you arriving at the door, she was like “I know this person, he’s Mr. J!, but what is he doing here…?, wait, what!, really!?”. So, she had absolutely no idea, which made your presence a perfect gift for her.Another funny thing was, you picked one boy to work with Izumi at the beginning of the show, and he was actually someone she really liked. You were teasing them, saying like “Are you like a boy friend and a girl friend?”, which they were denying, but Michael and I smiled to each other.I am not sure if you still remember there was an adult Japanese girl from Osaka at the party, to whom you also handed a gift. She told me that when she was in Lunenburg this summer she saw you performing there!Lastly, I think your brother’s bar is “Shaka Bar” in Nipponbashi, Osaka, and his name is Chris? Next time we are in Japan, we would definitely like to visit the bar.Thank you again, and we are all hoping to see you again in the future, hopefully soon." -Shoko, Michael, and Izumi, Wolfville NS (Show performed April 2024)🎩🪄🐰🕊❤️👍 ...

RIP😪 and thanks❤️ to ⭐️MIKE BULLARD⭐️, for his pioneering Canadian🇨🇦 late night talk show, his hilarious audience-interactive comedy, and especially for putting up with yours truly‼️, during my admittedly absurd appearance on his CTV show.😅 (Ridiculous Video of Mr. J on Mike Bullard, attached).🎥👌Did you also watch Mike's show, Friends?⭐️🤔❓️Y'know, as a schoolteacher👨‍🏫 back in 1999, (juuuuust about to embark on a new career as a Magician/Entertainer)❤️🎩🪄🐰🕊, I drove 19 hours from Nova Scotia, JUST to see and experience Mike live.🌠 Why🤔❓️His amazing spontaneous finesse with a live crowd helped inspire me to pursue an entertainment career.🎭 Grateful to have had the chance to tell him so, personally.🥰Literally making the random LIVE audience his 'material' every night, and taking live phone calls on-air, Mike regularly walked an exciting comedy tightrope on national television.If you personally remember tuning in to 'Open Mike with Mike Bullard' (1997-2003, on CTV) and 'The Mike Bullard Show' (2003-2004, on Global), you regularly saw a much funnier show than its American counterparts Leno, Letterman, and the rest (Within our wonderful Canada🇨🇦, Mike actually beat those U.S. juggernaut shows in the ratings!)‼️After some down years and personal turmoil, Mike finally seemed poised to make a comeback...recently touring extensively in Ukraine for several months on humanitarian missions. The Man was only 67😪, and was performing live stand up as recently as last week.🥲Friend and fellow entertainer ⭐️Mark Christian Walker⭐️ also appeared on Mike's show, as did many other talented, established, and up-and-coming acts, who Mike encouraged. As he did for me.🤗So here's a tip of the Magic Hat🎩, to a unique Canadian talent.🇨🇦🌟🙏⭐️FUN FACT⭐️: Six years after this ridiculous 1999 TV appearance, a girl I had just started dating mentioned Mike Bullard, and how she remembered "seeing some guy on there years ago, who drove from Nova Scotia to be on the show...he made our whole family laugh." After I realized she was (coincidentally, and unknowingly!) talking about me, I showed her the video you see here. She burst out: "OMG!! That was YOU??! I saw you on TV six years ago! You were that crazy guy on Mike Bullard??"😅‼️Seems you never know in Life how you are remembered. May we all move forward knowing we all can create positive ripples in the Universe. ❤️💫🌠Just like when Mike himself walked out on stage, interacting with random people on national television...you just know: 🥳ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!🥰Because Life, like Comedy, is MAGIC.❤️🎩🪄🐰🕊👌#MikeBullard #OpenMike #RIP #Magic #Comedy #ThankYou ...
