welcome!

I could never decide which I enjoy more, making people laugh or feeding them pizza.  So I combined the two for a deliciously fun in-home dinner show experience. Click here to learn more about my journey or keep on scrolling to learn more about Magic By The Slice. I'm glad you're here!

​Milestone celebration? House warming? Just because? Whatever the occasion, BJ will  turn your kitchen into a pizzeria with his fancy schmancy from scratch deep dish pizzas (see the menu). But it doesn't stop there! ​After dinner you and your guests will kick back and relax in your living space for his comedy magic show!

​From the Chicago Magic Lounge to your living room, BJ is bringing the show to you! ​With his own unique blend of stand-up comedy magic and close-up sleight of hand, he's created a pack flat, play big contemporary performance with a hint of yesteryear. And with this level of audience participation, you never know what's going to happen!

"BJ's magic show was a delightful experience tailored perfectly to our audience of nerdy students. He was engaging, punctual and his witty humor kept us all on our toes throughout the performance. His tricks were not only mesmerizing but also intellectually stimulating, making the evening both entertaining and unforgettable."

​"Really spectacular! I knew it would be entertaining, but it went way over my expectations!! The most impressive part was how you tune in to everything that happens during the show that isn't planned and the speed of your wit to make jokes about that stuff is a real talent!"
