Welcome to my world…
Like flowers that bloom in unexpected places, my card houses transform your events, inspire your guests, and reveal hidden wonders.
About Me
My name is Alex Perricone and I am The Cardman! Specializing in the arts of cardstacking, cardistry, and magic, I’ve spent the last 20 years studying expert card techniques. Based in central NJ, I perform for private and public events wherever I am needed. Since 2014, delivering fun experiences for every occasion and creating value for projects has transformed the way my audience sees a deck of cards. At the heart of everything I do is my greatest love and the belief that anything is possible.
My Mission
My ultimate goal is to reach the hearts of my audience through my work as Alex The Cardman. At the foundation of my philosophy is my deep desire to create personal, playful, and powerful experiences that bring wonder wherever I go. No event is too small or too big to have me perform because I am committed to adapting my art for your entertainment. If you can imagine it, then I am willing to find a way to make it happen just for you!
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do you charge?
Whether it’s on the stage for a seated audience, close-up for a full table, standing outdoors, or in the studio for the camera, I always consider the scope of work when determining my fee. Event type, number of guests, performance type & duration, travel expenses, and project scale are usually discussed before I can determine my fee. In doing so, I also consider my client’s needs so I can present entertainment options that fit and add value to your investment.
How do I contact you for booking inquiries and projects?
The fastest way is to reach me by phone: (732) 939-5136. You may also email me or fill out the contact form on this website. I work directly with you as much as you need and take pride in making our communication easy and professional. I am prepared to serve you and I am always excited for a challenging project. Whether you’re all ready, just getting started planning, or just want to see what I am like: my door is open.

Follow me on your favorite social media to see where I will be performing next.

In the meantime, you’ll definitely want to watch some of my newest performance videos on YouTube: @alexthecardman.
Is magic real?
Magic doesn’t come from a magic wand or a deck of cards. For me, real magic comes from connecting you to authentic experiences filled with wonder and amazement. As a magician, I am your guide to bring out the kid you used to be. It’s this child-like joy that makes magic beyond what we can imagine. So yes, magic is real!
