College Magician & Comedian Joseph Tran
"I HATE magicians... but Joseph Tran made me enjoy magic!"
Erica LeBlanc, CAB President, Suffolk University
let’s give students amazing memories
Before I became a full-time college magician & speaker, I was a campus programmer…
My experience coming from both sides is that you are some of the most selfless peeps on campus, and more than anything…
- You care about bringing students together and creating memorable experiences
- You want top notch entertainment without emptying your budget
- You want to leave a legacy behind that your activities board was the best ever
- And you want to have fun doing it!
I’M HERE TO HELP YOU DO EXACTLY THAT
I know how freaking HARD it is to plan and execute events! What if this doesn’t go the way I plan? What if this event is a flop? What if the act doesn’t show up? Holy $#!+, I have a paper due in two days!!
I’m a two-time magician of the year, lots of awards, TV appearances on and off camera, blah, blah, blah. Here’s my real promise to you:
- I will be an anti-boring, anti-cheesy entertainer who understands your crowd
- I will be super easy to work with and fun to be around
- I will do everything I can to help promote the event
- I will provide several programs where students can laugh, learn, decompress, interact, and remember forever!
My college magic shows, speaking programs, and virtual magic & game shows are time-tested yet ever evolving programs that are highly engaging, relevant, and energetic!

- Reduce stress & anxiety and have more time for yourself
avoid failures

“A totally unique show that entertained the students AND made me look good in front of the parents!”
Stephen F. Austin State University Student Activities Association
“His personality is electric, his professionalism is first-class, and his student focused approach is exactly what we could ask for at our institution.“
Luke Trotz, Assistant Director
Student Engagement
“He did his research as the virtual show had lots of Lawrence University trivia mixed in, and of course frequent prizes! Would do this again in a heartbeat.”

VIRTUAL MAGIC, COMEDY, & GAME SHOWS
Students’ classes have all gone virtual, which means they’re staring at a screen for most of the day. So I’m focused on creating virtual shows that are entertaining and interactive!
These shows are not just ports of my in-person college magic shows. These shows are written from scratch, just for the virtual medium.
My post popular show – “THE WIN $#!+ FROM HOME VIRTUAL GAME SHOW” – has quickly become THE most popular variety show on the college circuit today! It features fantastic, brand-new magic AND fun, interactive games for students to enjoy & unwind. Oh, and CASH prizes, too!
MAGIC & COMEDY SHOWS
My college magic show is largely based on my own experiences as a college magician and student. It’s designed for today’s young adults: it’ll give you lots of feels, lols, and wtfs. And it’s totally ‘grammable and ‘tokkable…
Like you, I get bored easily, and I can’t stand being stagnant. I’m always developing new ideas and new magic for my show. My comedy is a result of hours of time onstage at comedy clubs. That’s why my magic is 100% preservative/gluten/hack/brooding/unfunny-free and just what you need to inject some life into your day.
This show features some of my signature magic and mind-reading miracles, and combines “amazing”, “hilarious”, and “dangerous” all into one show.
MAGIC & SPEAKING PROGRAM
My college speaking program focuses less on the “motivational speaking” aspect and more on the issues that this generation of students go through in their everyday lives…
[updated to include topics of today, including the COVID-19 crisis & isolation and the power/pressure/protests of social media]
This program was created because of YOU — my college friends — and the impactful questions you had for me after my comedy magic shows. I combine amazing magic with relevant college topics to keep students RECEPTIVE, ENGAGED, and ENTERTAINED.
Written by a Millennial for Millennals and Gen Z, my speaking program combines all-new magic, mind-reading, and comedy with issues that this generation of students go through in their everyday lives. It’s like Kevin Hart doing a TED talk… but he’s also awesome at magic!
MINGLING CLOSE-UP MAGIC
[Yes, it’s close-up magic, but I’ve specially developed effects that keep social distancing in mind]
Miracles will happen right in front of your face and in your hands as I walk around campus and perform close-up magic to generate buzz for my stage show, or as a stand-alone program for your concert, festival, or fair.
THEMED EVENTS
Does your campus have an event that you go out all for? Whether you need a spirit medium for spooky Halloween shows, an emcee for your annual talent show, or an ambasador for your Homecoming Weekend, I will tailor my show with customized material just for your event.
