Chicago’s Best Character/SEL Assembly For K-8 Schools
“Be A Magician” brings empathy, respect, and perseverance to life—with magic
40-50 minutes per performance
What if your students could become better friends and stronger community members… by learning how to think like magicians?
In this interactive SEL assembly, students discover how the skills magicians use—empathy, focus, respect, and perseverance—aren’t just stage tricks. They’re real tools that help us connect with others, work through challenges, and become thoughtful, kinder student citizens.
What Students Learn
How to look at situations from another person’s point of view
Why respect and inclusion matter in a diverse school community
That messing up isn’t failure—it’s part of the process
How to develop the same focus and confidence magicians use to succeed
And yes—every student learns a magic trick they can perform at home. One that reinforces the idea that things aren’t always what they seem, and that perspective matters.
Designed for Every Grade
Younger students love the wonder, the fun, and the idea that they can become magicians themselves. Older students engage deeply with the behind-the-scenes peek—what’s in the case, how the tricks work, what it takes to be great at magic—and how those same lessons apply in life.
The message stays the same, but the delivery adjusts. Each performance is tailored to the age, maturity, and energy level of the audience, making sure every student connects with the message—and feels inspired by it.
