Kids birthday show problem

[Luis Vega]

Yes, I do at least 8 45-minute kids shows a month, and I am only in high school (I basically have at least 2 kid shows every weekend). I know that being JUST silly does not make a good show, but due to the situation he was in, it was just a little tip for him to make his performance a little more successful; I did not mean to just do lame gags on stage, but rather make your magic tricks and performances funny so the kids enjoy the show. Like danielmontagne said, to make the kids like your performance, you must be "seriously silly" (that is what I meant by all you need to do is be silly, silly, silly).

Ok...I wouldn`t have said what you just said...because now I have to ask you....why the heck if you have such experience with kids shows, you gave the most useless advice in kids shows ever!!!!!????? I mean..dude!!! honestly!! instead of giving advice on routines or tricks to do...you just said "be silly, silly, silly" which I immediately interpreted as someone that had no experience in kids shows...

it`s different now that you explained it...but the show is over by now...

Very true. Sorry for the misunderstanding about what I said. You were right about it sounding childish. I guess I just meant that he needed to make his tricks funny and not do some complicated 4 ace assembly or whatever. You would be SHOCKED by the number of kid show performers that talk to four year olds like they are 40 years old hahaha. I just did not want him to be in that situation. Like you said, I guess I could have given him some better advice though...
