Most people do not think of magicians when they think of San Antonio Texas. You will be quite surprised when you learn that San Antonio magicians are quite popular in this town. Magic shows are put on quite often and the family will enjoy watching these professionals do what they do best. If you are on vacation in San Antonio you have to make it a point to see one of the many magic shows they have to offer. Children and adults love to watch these performers.

You would be surprised at the many different styles of magic. Street performers are a favorite among tourist. Street performers go out into the crowds and perform their magic for all the tourist to enjoy. They do it for the love of the craft not for the money. So if your watching a street performer be sure you tip him or her if you enjoyed the show.

There are also world class performers that put on magic shows in beautiful theaters. You have to pay a cover charge or buy a ticket in order to see these magicians. It may cost you more but it is worth the price. Most of them bring a lady on stage to assist with a magic trick.

You can choose a one man show or you can choose a show that has several people performing magic. Not all of them work alone. In fact some of them prefer to work with a partner.

Many performers like to have a beautiful assistant to help them with their props and tricks. Most people do not know this but the assistant is always beautiful because it distracts from what the magician is doing. If you are not paying attention to the magician but instead watching the assistant then you do not see how the trick is done.

If another magician steals an act or a trick from another magician it can cause a lot of problems because they take this stuff seriously. There are a lot of different types of magic like close up magic. Illusion magic has a lot of light and music and even animals.

When a magician is doing magic with little objects like cards that is called close up magic. When doing close up magic it is usually done in a small group. When magicians do parlor magic it is usually done in large groups like at a party. An illusionist will usually work on a stage with lots of props and lights. They even use animals in some of their acts or call up an audience member to assist them. A mentalist will work with demonstrations like memory, rapid calculations, mental feats and precognition.

Magicians come in all different styles and if you enjoy magic you will enjoy San Antonio. The whole family will have a blast. Kids, Adults and even grandparents.
