We weren’t planning on coming until today, when our son came home from school SO EXCITED about the assembly he had just seen. He was BEGGING us to come back to the Family Night Show, and I’m so glad we did. I laughed until I cried, and our hearts were touched by the encouraging message at the end.”

    Tricked! - Just for Fun

    Sometimes kids (and teachers!) just need a brain break. Tricked! is a fast-paced, laugh-filled magic show designed to give your students a chance to relax, recharge, and experience pure wonder.

    This 30-60 minute program is filled with music, comedy, and audience participation that keeps students engaged from start to finish. It’s the perfect fit for:

    With Braden’s high-energy style and professional production, you’ll have a room full of smiling faces, roaring laughter, and kids talking about the show for weeks.

    Best of all? It’s hassle-free. Braden brings all the sound, props, and backdrop so you can enjoy the show right alongside your students.

    What Is Magic?

    Designed for Grades K-6

    For hundreds of years, “STEAM” has been an essential power source used to keep things moving forward.

    For educators, STEAM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math, which generates the power our students can use to move forward.

    Our “What Is Magic?” program teaches these principles in an exciting new way. By combining fun magic tricks with comedy and audience participation, students learn STEAM principles while building creativity, critical thinking, and boosting their self-confidence. Added bonus: this leads to improved communication skills!

    Each student also receives a “Top-Secret File Folder” that contains instructions for several more magic effects that they can engage with long after the program ends.

    Students Learn:

    Math
    How math reveals patterns and how understanding patterns can give the illusion of predicting the future
    A scientific principle which gives the magician the ability to bend the laws of nature
    Art
    That ART plays a HUGE role in creating magical effects in our own minds.
    That using technology (and a dash of clever theatrics) can make it look like they have “trained their brain” to move an inanimate object!

    Teachers Love:

    That the entire show is built around supporting the STEAM Curriculum topics they are focused on.

    Science

    Students will explore the properties of polymers and their surprising applications by creating seals that are strong enough to hold water.

    Technology and Engineering

    Students will learn how to create the illusion of "mind control" by applying unbalanced forces to an inanimate object.

    Art

    Students will experience art that communicates different messages depending on how it's viewed.

    Math

    Students will use a model, and tools, plan ahead with a structure, and attend to precision by conducting math in real-time to arrive at a predicted outcome.

    Curriculum Details
    • Using 4 of the 8 standards for Mathematical Practice: #4: Model with Mathematics, #5: Use appropriate tools strategically, #6, Attend to precision, and #7: Look for & make use of structure.
    • 2-PS1-1 Structure and Properties of Matter: Plan and construct an investigation to describe and classify different kinds of materials by their observable properties.
    • 2-PS1-2 Structure and Properties of Matter: Analyze data obtained from testing different materials to determine which materials have the properties that are best suited for an intended purpose.
    • 5-PS1-1 Matter and Its Interactions: Develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen.
    • 5-PS1-3 Matter and Its Interactions: Make observations and measurements to identify materials based on their properties.
    • VA:Re.7.2.2a-4a National Core Arts Standards: Responding: categorize images based on expressive properties, determine messages communicated by an image, analyze components in visual imagery that convey messages.
    • 3-PS2-1 Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions: Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object.

    Classroom Poster and Teacher’s Guide

    A discussion/activity is distributed among the teachers for classroom follow up. Teachers now have an in-depth opportunity to discuss what the students saw in the program. The guide also gives ideas & suggestions for group activities & projects, and includes a poster for each classroom as a reminder of the show’s messages.

    Teachers tell us that they refer to the poster during class for weeks afterwards.

    But the Magic Show Doesn’t End There…

    Family Night Programming

    The Family Night Show is the climax of the Braden Carlisle Magic Show! Available as a stand alone for a school fundraiser, parent night, or Just For Fun, the Family Night Show can also be paired with an assembly show for a 2 show, same day discount!

    If paired with an assembly show, it is held at your school the same evening as the assembly program. The kids are SO EXCITED after seeing the Daytime Show, and they beg their parents to return! This 45 minute Family Night show is completely different from the assembly, yet it has all the same high class production values.

    For this show, we request that the audience is seated as families…after all…it’s Family Night! One first grader described our Family Night Show as “a Las Vegas Show for kids!” This show is filled with inspiring music, magic, and hilarious comedy that will have everyone laughing like you wouldn’t think possible at a magic show.

    The end of the show has some very poignant messages that remind parents of the important role they play in their kids’ lives. Braden inspires empathy and seeks to strengthen family bonds. After an evening of music, magic & drama, families draw closer together with a better understanding of each person’s role and their unique gifts & talents.

    It’s so easy to host Tricked! A Magic Show by Braden Carlisle!

    There is VERY little work to do on your part. Braden brings his own backdrop curtain, sound system, props, etc.

    Once the show is booked, we’ll send you two important items:

    This system has been honed over hundreds of performances. Just follow a few simple steps and we guarantee a great event for your school family!
