Looking to add a touch of magic to your corporate event? Look no further! Hire a magician to bring excitement and fun to your gathering. A magician can create memorable moments and leave your guests in awe. Corporate magic is a unique and engaging way to entertain a crowd. Magicians are skilled in their craft and can adapt their performances to suit any event. They can perform close-up magic, where they interact with small groups of people, or stage magic, where they perform for a larger audience. Whatever the format, a magician will keep your guests entertained and amazed.
In “Hivemind Elegy (There are Things Coming)”, Stoddard enlists the imagery of that fatal mythical apple to speak of a surging ecological grief that is attending our descent from fossil fuel civilization. She writes, “Migration patterns may soon / become escape routes,”. We all know something is coming. We don’t know how bad it will be. Satan stands before us offering two temptations: embrace technological optimism or give up hope completely. I hear Stoddard facing her anxiety, tapping into her grief, but not making any sweeping claims about where this journey will take her.
After considering the damage a Roman whip might do to the skin of a defeated Jesus of Nazareth, she smirks at the strangeness of applying fake blood to her father, as he prepared to carry the cross in the passion play at his Catholic parish. After coming to rely on and appreciate the daily office, Terry started writing collects short prayers of his own towards the end of 2019, which can be found on Instagram prayersfromterry and in his book Prayers for the People Convergent 2021.
Whatever the format, a magician will keep your guests entertained and amazed. Why hire a magician for your corporate event? Firstly, it adds an element of surprise and wonder. Magicians are masters of deception and can create illusions that leave people questioning what they just saw.
Divination with a Human Heart Attached (Paperback)
In her debut poetry collection, Emily Stoddard takes on a god who "kicks us from the inside." These poems challenge the space between the divine and the stories we invent--or inherit--about what to believe and why.
Divination with a Human Heart Attached is a book where the sacred doesn't shy away from what's surreal, unavoidably human, or unexpectedly absurd. Here, the gods know what it's like to be lonely, the daughters know the power of expecting more, and every bird is at risk of becoming an omen. The poems are led by Petronilla, the daughter of St. Peter, and the magpie, who refuses easy shelter and asks you to do the same.
"Stoddard ignites the patriarchal canon from within, exploding the darkness and violence with dazzling lyricism, incisive wit, and such taut restraint, every deeply-honed emotion sizzles at the seams. These poems are wise, witchy, and mystical."--Jenn Givhan, author of Belly to the Brutal
"In Emily Stoddard's stunning debut collection, Divination with a Human Heart Attached, we enter into a world of myth and magic, surrealism and a heart on fire. Stoddard's poems are graceful and fierce, insisting, Every year, I want more passion, less resurrection. These poems are spiritual in the best way--they lean over the edge, see a drowning world and admit I do not have wing enough to save anyone. But Stoddard's poems do save us. In beauty and blessing, these poems seek connection even in the comedy as they look for the god they lost between department store racks, tucked between / the gold-star clearance cardigans and last season's tank tops."--Kelli Russell Agodon, author of Dialogues with Rising Tides
"Emily Stoddard's important and elegant debut collection holds my attention from the first poem and does not let go. The trouble is / everything calls to me, she begins. Slowly, fragments of memory, the natural world, and a retelling of familiar myths realign themselves in unexpected ways."--Susan Rich, author of Gallery of Postcards and Maps

1. John - 2 stars
While the magician had impressive tricks up his sleeve, the overall performance at our corporate event was underwhelming. The magician seemed disinterested and lacked connection with the audience. Furthermore, his jokes were mediocre at best, failing to elicit genuine laughter from the attendees. Overall, I was left disappointed and would not recommend hiring this magician for a corporate event.
2. Sarah - 2 stars
I was excited to have a magician perform at our company's annual event, but unfortunately, the magician's performance fell flat. The tricks lacked pizzazz and were easily decipherable by even the most casual observers. The magician struggled to engage the audience, and instead of creating a sense of wonder and amazement, I found myself feeling bored and unimpressed. If you're looking for a truly captivating and entertaining magician for your corporate event, I would suggest looking elsewhere.
3. Michael - 1 star
I had high expectations for the magician's performance at our company's team building event, but unfortunately, I was thoroughly disappointed. Not only did the magician's tricks seem outdated and unoriginal, but his stage presence was lackluster and uninspiring. The show lacked energy and failed to create a sense of excitement among the audience. Overall, hiring this magician was a waste of money, and I would not recommend him for any corporate events in the future.
4. Emily - 2 stars
The magician's performance at our corporate event was lackluster and failed to leave a lasting impression. The tricks were predictable and lacked the wow factor that one would expect from a professional magician. Additionally, the magician's interaction with the audience felt forced and awkward, making the overall experience uncomfortable for both the attendees and the performer. If you're looking for a truly memorable magic show for your corporate event, I would advise considering other options.
