Meet the MAGICIAN
Joshua Erichsen
Josh’s journey into magic began at age seven when a magician visited his elementary school and left him completely spellbound. That single performance ignited a lifelong fascination with wonder. Soon after, his parents surprised him with a birthday trip to a local magic shop, where he learned his first sleight of hand and purchased the props for his very first show—performed proudly for his second-grade class.
What began as childhood curiosity has grown into a career defined by bold spectacle and theatrical storytelling. Josh has escaped from a straitjacket while hanging upside down from a burning rope, vanished from a box suspended high above the stage—only to reappear moments later among the audience—and created immersive live experiences that blend humor, suspense, and heart.
He has also had the privilege of collaborating with magician and mentalist Angela Funovits (NBC’s PHENOMENON, Syfy’s WIZARD WARS) in their acclaimed production, Theatre of Magic.
While his show continues to evolve, Josh’s mission remains unchanged: to create shared moments of astonishment that remind audiences—of every age—that wonder is real.
