Daniel Nicholas has been performing mentalism for New York's most demanding corporate audiences for over 15 years. His client list includes Google, Meta, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Deloitte — companies that set the bar high and expect every vendor to clear it. Your CFO will be talking about it for weeks.
He doesn't do packaged shows. Every mentalism experience is built around your event — board dinners, investor events, IPO celebrations, product launches, and annual meetings. Team-building through shared impossible experiences.
There's no shortage of magicians in New York. What's rare is someone who can walk into a room full of Goldman analysts or Google engineers and hold every person's attention.
Daniel built his entire approach around high-stakes corporate rooms. Now he's the one those same companies call when they need it done right.
Daniel performs right in guests' hands — inches away, with cards, coins, and mentalism that hits harder the closer you are. It's the format clients rebook most.
When something happens that close, it doesn't feel like a performance. It feels like a shared secret.
Daniel builds custom programs with audience volunteers, company-specific details, and mentalism that leaves executives genuinely speechless. He's performed for groups from 20 to over 5,000 — the approach scales, the quality doesn't.
Private parties, milestone celebrations, and events where the entertainment needs to match the occasion.
Right in their hands. No stage, no distance — the most intimate format, perfect for cocktail hours and VIP receptions.
A full one-man production for any room size. From 50 to 5,000 — every show is built for the moment.
Custom-built for your brand and guests. Daniel reads the room, works the crowd, and leaves people talking long after.
90+ five-star reviews. Thousands of shows. Watch for yourself.

From Fortune 500 boardrooms to sold-out stages. Here's what clients said after.
“Daniel performed at our corporate event and left everyone completely speechless. He has an uncanny ability to read the room and make every single person feel like part of the show.”
“I've hired a lot of entertainers over the years. Daniel is in a completely different class. He brought something to our evening that we didn't even know was possible. Absolutely unforgettable.”
“From start to finish, Daniel exceeded every expectation. He personalized the entire experience and kept a room full of executives completely captivated. We'll absolutely be booking again.”
“Daniel is the real deal. He performed at our holiday party and completely blew everyone away — including our most skeptical executives. The reactions were priceless.”
“We've used Daniel twice now and he never disappoints. His ability to connect with each guest individually while entertaining the whole room is unlike anything we've seen.”
“Outstanding performance from start to finish. Daniel made our gala feel truly special — our guests couldn't stop talking about him the entire evening.”
The financial industry runs on relationships. Client dinners in Midtown aren't just meals — they're where trust gets built and deals get made.
Daniel has performed for investment banks, private equity firms, and hedge funds across Manhattan. The skeptics are usually the best volunteers.
He performs regularly at Midtown event spaces, Financial District venues, private clubs, hotel ballrooms, and conference centers throughout the five boroughs and tri-state area — if you've got a venue in mind, he's likely performed there or somewhere similar.
For clients who don't have their own event space, Daniel has relationships with a range of premium Manhattan venues — private clubs in Midtown, boutique hotel event spaces, private dining rooms, rooftop terraces. The Cornell Club at 44th and 5th is one he works with regularly. Discreet, well-appointed, minutes from Grand Central. Whatever the format, he can usually point you toward the right room.
