About our Performers
Zach Waldman
When Zach was about six years old, Burger King copied McDonald’s and their happy meal with a kids’ meal of their own. Most people don’t remember, but there was a guy who played the part of the Burger King and he was a magician. As a result, their kids’ meal came with magic tricks, which is where Zach got his first one. He still has it after all these years!
Zach fell in love with magic, and as a he got older his mom encouraged him to put together an act and charge money for it. That’s right, his mom actually pushed me toward being a professional entertainer.
Zach was born in North Miami, FL, graduated from the University of Central Florida, moved to New York City to work on The Howard Stern Show, and then worked for Kenny Kramer, the real Kramer. Next, he moved to Chicago to attend the Player’s Workshop of the Second City, and finally landed in Santa Monica, CA, which is where he has been since 2000. He’s clearly running from the law, but we won’t tell. 🙂
Zach has performed all over the country for major corporations, celebrities, and audiences from all walks of life. He’s been a featured performer at the Magic Castle in Hollywood and numerous other venues across the country.
Lou Serrano
