Hello, my name is Kourosh Taie. I've spent well over the last two decades of my life completely immersed in the art of magic. I regularly get asked how and why I got into magic. It all started back when I was a teenager. Growing up I always had an appreciation for the art, but it wasn't until I saw David Blaine's first TV special, David Blaine: Street Magic, that I realized I wanted to be a magician myself.

I will have your invited guests laughing and gasping with dropped jaws as I present miracle after miracle, engaging personally with the individuals watching the show.

Kourosh aka "K" was fantastic! My best friend hired him for a family birthday party and he did an amazing job of engaging the group in a funny, kind & charismatic way! I was skeptical at first, but he literally left us all amazed, confused & wanting more all at the same time!! I highly recommend him & felt he brought great energy to the birthday party!

I'd had a fever dream vision of my birthday dinner party including a professional entertainer who could make us all laugh AND dazzle us with acts of illusion. There were a lot of profiles for "comedy magician" in DC, but Kourosh's profile, website, and personalized response to my event listing stood out. He was consistently proactive about contacting me, checking in event logistics, and the fact he phoned me in the first place to establish if he was the right personality for my event and friends established a lot of confidence with me.
He kept me updated on logistics and timing

Kourosh recently performed an outdoor (masked) show for eight teenagers at my home for a birthday party, and he was a-m-a-z-i-n-g. A huge hit. He performed a mix of mentalism and magic, and we cannot stop talking about it. I'd never seen a professional magician perform in-person and I was baffled by his skills, it's truly an art form.
Some of the guests were aspiring magicians and Kourosh was kind enough to spend extra time after the show, offering advice and resources to improve their skills. The kids were delighted, and I was touched by his generosity in sharing his time and talents. If he needs

Simply put, Kourosh was amazing! Before booking him for a virtual event (a work team meeting), I knew nothing about him and didn't even watch the video on his website. So I literally had no idea what to expect. But he ended up being so fantastic. He was engaging, funny, likeable, entertaining and most importantly, had mind-blowing tricks. In addition, he had a great Zoom setup that allowed you to see his magic up close. Immediately after he finished, I posted something to our internal work chat to encourage others to hire him because his show was so much fun. If you are considering hiring

People are really magicians? As like, their profession???
YES! Kourosh is not only an engaging and friendly individual, he is a MAGICIAN. I've never been so amazed (and frankly, confused) as to how he performs some of the coolest illusions and tricks I've ever seen.
I've been lucky enough to see him in a casual setting just making people laugh and be wowed, but have also hired him to work an important corporate event with my company. He's absolutely fantastic either way.

Kourosh, also known as K, is the best magician I've ever seen! I recently went to his magic show and am still thinking about the magic he performed. He is energetic and connects with everyone. The entire audience was in awe during his performance. I highly recommend him and am looking forward to seeing his next show!

Kourosh or " K" gets our highest rating. He has come to our home for two parties over the last few years and just last week. Aside from the fact that he is extremely talented and completely mystifies everyone ( this means adults and kids too), what sets him apart is his personality which is warm and extremely personable . You don't want him to leave just because he's such a nice guy. He makes an effort to expose virtually everyone to his tricks and we can't tell you how many times people say " OMG". You will have no clue how he does what he does. He is a

Kourosh performed for my wife's baby shower and my son's 2nd birthday party. I felt very comfortable in booking Kourosh as he was very detailed in what he could offer and what I was looking for. Communication was excellent.
Kourosh's show and talent is top notch! I've been a magic fan my entire life and have been to quite a few shows in the DC area and Kourosh absolutely lived up to the hype. Kourosh is very personable which my guests enjoyed and received many compliments after the show. I would absolutely book him again.

Astounding! K amazed every guest both young and old during his amazing strolling performance at our son's Bar Mitzvah. As a Willy Wonka inspired theme came to life, K was able to create that world of wonder and made believers of the most skeptical characters. He deflected all the hecklers with charm and flair. K took the time to show the young prestidigitators in training a few tricks up his sleeve too. Overall, K created lasting memories for so many and he brought the shyest child out of their shell. This up-close experience was cherished as everyone laughed and smiled. They were able

An absolute must have for your next event! We just booked Kourosh for our daughter's 1st birthday party and he was superb! Our crowd was more adults than kids and he really did a great job at capturing peoples attention. He did roaming magic for a part of the party, where he went to small groups of people, and then did a magic show at the end for everyone to enjoy. His tricks were really unique and he even tailored them to our party theme. He incorporated my daughter into his tricks which was a sweet personalized touch. Everyone left the party amazed with his tricks. We were all truly

K performed at my company gala during cocktail hour and also a stage performance after dinner. He is amazing! I love magic and card tricks so this was a very enjoyable night. He has great memory with names and is very nice. He did a few tricks for my boyfriend and I, still don't know how he did it but so much fun!

Kourosh has performed both for my family at private gatherings and for the high school where I work. He is a true professional and an outstanding magician. Book Kourosh Taie now you will be glad you did. Every time I see him it is a brand new show with brilliant new material. I appreciate how he creates a unique show for each particular audience. His dedication and passion for his craft is inspiring.

We wanted something a bit different during our cocktail our at our wedding, so we found Kourosh to perform some magic for us and our guests. Kourosh was awesome - he was easy to talk to, was communicative with our wedding coordinator, and far exceeded our expectations. As the other reviews say, he's friendly, entertaining, engaging, and performs at a very high level.
I think it's worth reiterating his skill level. The illusions he performed for us were unbelievable. We've been hearing from our guests since our wedding about the different things he pulled off - even the skeptics

Kourosh not only performs brilliant, original magic; but his presentation and attitude are stellar! He is extremely personable and suave. Kourosh became the life of my event at a cost much less than I imagined, especially for the quality of his service. Definitely hire him if you are looking to entertain a crowd with something unique. I would hire him again without thinking twice!

Kourosh is the best magician I've seen hands down! He's super entertaining and will blow your mind with many of his magic tricks. He's got this this magic thing nailed down. Its just unbelievable that he's not more well known. I can guarantee for whatever event you book him your guests will be thoroughly entertained all while trying to involve everyone in the audience. Everyone will be talking about the magician long after the event has ended. Do yourself a favor and book him - you wont be sorry. He's the next David Blaine.

I saw Kourosh at the Barracks Row Festival and he did not disappoint! He has a super fun personality while performing and people were flocking to him to see him and his tricks. He fooled all of us each time and we kept following him around to see more, he seemed to be one of the more popular things at the event. As an entertainer I would hire him if I had any sort of event. What was fun about him was that he was a little more adult with his sense of humor and magic, at the same time he would switch it up when kids came by. He's not a cheesy children's magician, this is someone you

In the last twenty years I've been involved in the planning of over 2000 live events - without question Kourosh is one of the most professional entertainers I've ever worked with. Punctual, professional, and responsive are qualities equally important as his mind blowing magic and engaging personality. For a cocktail reception or strolling through a crowd, you will have a tough time finding a more entertaining guy!

Seriously book Kourosh for your next event. We had him perform at our rehearsal dinner and he was the hit of the event, that is after my wife and I. If you want just an okay party or event than do not book Kourosh, but if you want an awesome event that your guests will be talking about well after dust has settled than have K walk around doing interactive magic. He had our guests at the edge of their seats the entire time and his presence is casual he just interacted with our guests and worked off the energy of the room. Seeing magic on tv or on stage is one thing, but being part of the trick is
