The Great Omar Magician

My wife and I met Omar in 2008 while he was doing a street show in Huntington Beach. We were impressed by his magic and drawn in by his charm. Since then we have hired him more than once and he has never disappointed. Whether a large group or small, adults or children, Omar immediately captures the audience and doesn’t let them go. It would be enough for him to be a great entertainer, but on top of that he is a first class individual. Always 5 stars for his performance, his style and himself as a person.

Omar The Great or The Great Omar, either way, is a funny guy! I’ve seen him several times at the Ice House in Pasadena, CA & other venues & he’s always a riot & very entertaining. He recently performed at a friend’s wedding & I hear he was a huge hit! Most recently, he performed at my company’s Christmas Party a couple of weeks ago & after taking an office poll, everyone loved him!!! I highly recommend him for all ages! No off color jokes here! I wish I could give him a 10!

It’s a pleasure to watch Omar perform. He’s a great performer, funny, entertaining and just overall a fun show to watch. Every show has something new with fan participation and his quick sharp Impromptu replies make it even funnier. Awesome and classy guy. Book em!

We just used Omar for a gig, and he was amazing! He is an extremely talented comedian and magician, and has the uncanny ability to mesh both trades together. Omar is worth every penny!

Absolutely the best money I could’ve spent on my 83-​year-​old dad’s birthday a phenomenal show plenty of laughs and great magic we had a tight packed room with about 15 to 20 people and Omar made everyone feel included he is a top-​notch comedian and even better magician. The great Omar is worth every penny thank you for making our evening so incredibly wonderful this memory will last a lifetime my family really appreciated how you went out of your way for us thank you so much

Second time Saint George insurance company hires the Great Omar and I’m sure they will hire him again! The slow motion skit had the whole crowd dying with laughter.

I went to the Ice House Comedy Club in Pasadena last year (Aug 4, 2013 to be exact) for an All-​star variety show :) The show featured different acts from ventriloquism to magic/​comedy. This was the first time I’ve experienced this type of show at the Ice House. My friend had scored a few free tickets and invited us to join her. There were a lot of great comedians, however the one that stood out to me the MOST was «The Great Omar».
He was hilarious! I absolutely LOVED his show! He incorporated magic into his comedy which made it the show that much more AWESOME! He had all of us cracking UP! He really knows how to pump up a crowd and get them going. I really liked the fact that he included jokes about East L.A. Since I grew up there, I could totally relate!
Overall it was a memorable performance. I decided to look him up on Facebook and request him as a friend. I wanted to follow his upcoming shows and performances.
Still have the business card he gave me! He is truly THE GREAT!

Do yourself a favor and hire The Great Omar. You will not be sorry, I guarantee it. I first saw Omar perform ⁷⁄₂₀₁₃ at the Pasadena Ice House and loved his act. A few months later when my company was looking for entertainment for our Holiday party, I called Omar and asked him to perform. He was very accommodating especially after I changed the date and time. His act is funny, interactive and goes over well for all audience members. I also must mention I work with two blind guys that enjoyed the act. It was a big success and everyone was pleased. I think you know how hard it can be to please everyone at an office party. Nobody complained and they talked positively about him for weeks.
The second time I hired Omar was in ²⁄₂₀₁₄. My company gives out an award each year (our version of an Emmy) to an outstanding employee. We always surprise the employee at work. The employee was a driver (who works in our Santa Clarita branch) and was scheduled to pick up Omar for a trip. The employee did not suspect the customer he was picking up would be a magician who entertained him with many magic tricks before being transported. The whole thing was filmed and the employee had the time of his life. After the award presentation we had a luncheon and The Great Omar entertained our Santa Clarita office with a full show. Again, everyone was amazed at the show. Even months later people will still tell me how much they liked Omar’s act and ask me how he did certain tricks. I must repeat my first line. Do yourself a favor and hire The Great Omar.

I’ve seen The Great Omar a couple of times. Truly an amazing experience. He never disappoints with the laughter.

My wife and I first saw The Great Omar at the Brea Improv and loved his performance so when it came time for our sons first birthday he was the first performer that came to mind who could easily entertain guests of all ages and we were absolutely right. Everyone at the party LOVED the performance and came up to me afterward to let me know how much they enjoyed it.
In terms of professionalism the guy is top notch: showed up early, was able to set up despite an unconventional backyard «stage», and not to mention he is one of the nicest, most down to earth hardworking guy I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. I highly recommend him.
If you’re a fan of magic or comedy (or better yet both) then this is the guy you want. Without a doubt. I would definitely hire him again. My wife and I look forward to also seeing him perform again at the Improv in the future. And we’ll also definitely keep him in mind for our next large event.

The Great Omar is… great! We hired Omar for our corporate/​tenant holiday event; he was funny, professional and entertaining. Everyone at our event fully enjoyed his magic show which helped make our party a success! Omar was friendly, arrived on time, and creative. We wanted to make sure we hired a top notch performer and with The Great Omar, we did. He is HIGHLY recommended!!!

I’ve seen this fantastic artist on several occasions and have been pleasantly surprised each time. I’ve sat very close and tried very hard to figure how he does his magic, but he always surprises me. Did I mention the guy is as funny as they come? He has a quick wit and hands to match. Would gladly pay to see his talent again and again. He’s also a very nice person and a true kind spirit. If you ever get the chance to see him in action, go, really go see him.

My husband and I had the pleasure of seeing Omar’s show in Santa Monica a couple nights ago.
We had so much fun!
Omar really engaged the audience, made us laugh, and was very kind too. My husband was so tired before arriving at the show but he left energized and laughing. I’m so happy we got to see this performer!

We had the pleasure of meeting Omar a few years ago in downtown HB. He was great right from the start. Excellent sense of humor, great magician — just a full-​package entertainer. We have since booked him twice for parties and consider him a personal friend. If anyone is considering hiring him, do not hesitate. You won’t be disappointed!

WOW!!! That’s all I have to say. He’s good.
Your moden Harry Houdini.

Good comedy magic show! My husband and I joined him at a steakhouse for our anniversary date and we had an awesome night. Laughed a lot and will def take my kids to watch him perform sometime:)

Omar and I used to be a coworkers several years ago. I can still recall Omar learning his trade by reading MANY «How To» books on magic tricks and performing in front of people. This kid was HOOKED on magic and comedy.
At first, Omar used to be a «Pest», pleading with everyone for a few minutes of their time, in order to «Try» a trick he had just learned. Initially, Omar was «SO-​SO» however, Omar was VERY persistent & committed while he continued reading, practicing and perfecting what he was learning.
Once he attained this level of perfection, Omar ACTUALLY became VERY good with the magic tricks and not only impressed myself but ALL of our coworkers. He ALWAYS had a thing for making people laugh (BIG TIME!) and entertaining.
Roll the tape forward a few years, Omar has become VERY, VERY good at his craft. So much so that I have actually hired him (for money and NOT only nice words about what a swell guy he is) to perform his routine on three separate occasions.
During ALL three performances, Omar has had the crowd «rolling» in laughter as he integrates comedy into his routine and in TOTAL awe and amazement with his long-​learned magic tricks. Very AWESOME routine and A fun time had by ALL!
Omar is a TRUE showman, is HIGHLY respected in his field and performs at local, well known Comedy and Magic clubs on a regular basis. He is an ABSOLUTE genuine, amazing, hard working and GREAT entertainer. Omar succeeds at his craft with flying colors. Omar is a CLEAN comedian (NO foul language whatsoever) and is suitable for people of ALL ages. EVERYONE will enjoy his routine.
I HIGHLY recommend The Great Omar for ANY & ALL of your events. You will NOT have ANY regrets in doing so. He REALLY is worth every penny invested. I personally plan to continue to hire Omar for my future functions.
Hope this review helps with your decision to hire Omar or not?

Omar is great! He’s the perfect mix of comedy and magic! He’s quick on his feet, very funny and a very entertaining magician. :)

Omar is amazing! He has performed in a couple of our Church functions and we couldn’t have asked for a better performance. The audience was captivated by his wit and grace. Everyone, from the youngest to the oldest, were in awe. No one could stop laughing or stop shouting, «How did he do that?»
Looking forward to seeing him @ the Pasadena Ice House soon!
Awesome entertainer! He is a MUST SEE!

Omar is one of the quickest witted performers I’ve ever seen. He interacted with the crowd in a genuine way. His style was engaging, and he really knew how to work up a crowd getting the whole room involved in his tricks.
I saw him on a night at the Ice House Comedy Club in Pasadena along with other comedians. What makes him different is that he’s incredibly personable, a great performer and also does tricks that leave you in awe.
His acts are appealing taking a new spin on magic and comedy that makes it younger and fresher. The way he gets his audience involved is truly amazing. He can crack jokes instantly and make everyone feel at ease. You will be laughing uncontrollably while amazed by his wondrous skills-​he is hilarious! I love it.
His comedy style is entertaining, his magic tricks are superbly done and never ceases to amaze the young and old.
