«The Ice Breaker» i WOW. This is the man, this guy is some one that is very professional and the show he puts on his so amazing. I have seen guys out there that are pretty good, but he takes things to a level that is mind blowing. I will hope to see him at the Magic Castle again soon.

If you ever get a chance to see Rich Ferguson in action, DO it! He is not your typical magician. What he does really will blow your mind… it’s beyond tricks with his hands or illusions. It is like he can read your mind and I have no idea how he does it.
A while ago my husband and I were at a venue where Rick was performing. For one trick, he gave a few people paperback books. Then he chose one lady and asked her to open, leaf through it and then told her to stop. He then told her THE specific word that was in the second paragraph, fourth word over! How did he do that? Don’t know but it was pretty darn cool.
Want an interesting entertainer at your next event? Call Rich… your audience and you WON’T be disappointed.

I have been a huge fan of Rich Ferguson’s since I first met him ten years ago.
Rich is genius when it comes to «breaking the ice» — I’ve watched him at small, intimate gatherings and over the top black tie events. It’s been a joy to watch his career evolve to the top-​notch level which he has earned with hard work, dedication and perseverance. He is one of the most entertaining people that I’ve even been around and I can’t say enough about this talented man. Since 5-​starts is my only option, that is what it shall be!

We were lucky enough to have Rich come to our wedding and perform his magic, comedy and mentalism for our guests and he MADE the event. All our guests are still talking about how amazing he was! There are a lot of magicians out there with videos on You Tube that aren’t legit, involve some type of obvious manipulation. Rich was the real deal — seeing his tricks in person blew us away.
Few points to note for any harried bride or event planner:
1. Rich is very organized. He is not the type of vendor that will make your life harder — he really took care of everything himself and made our lives as easy as possible.
2. We really appreciated that Rich took the time to find us, the bride and groom, to show us a trick together about our special day. I dont want to give away too many spoilers but let’s just say, «Whoa.» My husband and I still occasionally try to figure out how he did what he did. We were so busy greeting people that we probably wouldn’t have had a chance to see him otherwise so I thought that was very thoughtful on his part.
3. He is very funny! You really do get a comedian and magician in one. We recently went to Magic Castle and observed some magicians who were doing interesting tricks but had a very awkward stage presence. Rich is the opposite — he is smooth, he knows how to work a crowd and he will break the ice among your guests.
Best entertainer we’ve seen in recent memory. Would book him in a heartbeat for another event.
Thanks so much, Rich!

Just when think you’ve seen every trick in the book, Rich will dazzle and amaze you with his unique style of magic and mentalism. He is BY FAR, one of the best entertainers on the central coast… or anywhere else for that matter. Seeing Rich perform for over a dozen years, I still find myself saying, «how did he do that?» For the best in entertainment, you can’t go wrong with Rich Ferguson!!!

Rich is a San Luis legend! I’ve seen him perform for about 7 or 8 years now and every time I love it. He seriously is one of the top sleight of hand magicians in the world right now, and he is totally local too.
