Today, Professor DR Schreiber presents an historic look at the beginnings of modern magic in his performances and exhibitions. Join Professor DR Schreiber as he leads you on a stroll through the past centuries of conjuring entertainment.
His unique presentations entertain while educating the audience about historical events, literary and cultural figures, and the science and art of conjuring.
Now you too can experience magic, as it was centuries ago. Invite Professor DR Schreiber, the historical conjurer, to your next event.
Early in the 18th century, magic (or conjuring as it was referred) emerged as a genuine art form and entertainment. Professors of natural philosophy and conjuring would rent taverns, legitimate theaters or lecture halls for the exhibition and displays of legerdemain, necromancy, or what would today be called “illusion” and “magic tricks.” Top dollar would be paid by the citizens of Europe to see the latest discoveries in the science of “natural philosophy.”

I need a performance space of at least 4 feet x 4 feet.
I need to know any directions that will help us find the venue and find the right place to load in my equipment. I also need to know if the audience is standing or seated, plus if the venue has sound equipment and lighting.
For an additional charge, I can include lights and sound gear beyond my wireless headset mic.
Yes, if needed.
Performing on the historic Queen Mary for a group of historical re-enactors all dressed in period costumes. The setting and costumes were amazing creating the perfect backdrop for my historic mysteries.
I love performing for mature audiences willing to explore their childlike impulses.
I am a past cast member at Disneyland and won a local Emmy award for broadcast news. I starting performing full time during lockdown since it provided the most freedom to determine my own schedule and share my at with the world.
Harry Houdini, Giuseppe Pinetti.
I normally need 20 to 30 minutes to load-in and set up depending on the venue. My suggested performance time is a 20 minute set for a more transient audience and 30 to 45 for more of a captivate audience. I can also do strolling or walk around magic for longer sets.
Yes in certain situations. I need a flat service, a shade or rain cover and power for amplifiers.
Yes, but only within my style of performance.
Amazing, humorous, sophisticated, enjoyable, mesmerizing, some day I'm a wizard and others can me a witch.
