Robert Baxt LIVE (Penguin LIVE)

“His is the second greatest Miser’s Dream routine in the world… next to mine, of course!” – Jeff McBride

“They should get it because success leaves clues!” – Jack Goldfinger on Robert’s “Naughty & Nice” Rope Routine

“The advertising video doesn’t do it justice. The expectations I had for the quality and versatility were far exceeded once I had the item in hand.” – Francis Menotti, who fooled Penn and Teller, praised Robert’s “MagicPad” trick in MAGIC Magazine.

Who is he?

Robert Baxt has never held a traditional job. He funded his college education through children’s birthday party performances and was accepted into both Ringling Bros. Clown College and Law School. He chose Law School to enhance his comedy career. However, after earning his Juris Doctorate and passing the Bar exam, he opted for a full-time career in entertainment instead.

His comedy magic act earned him the 1st Prize in the National I.B.M. Gold Medal Stage Competition, awarded by Lance Burton, and a FISM trophy for Comedy in Madrid, Spain, the following year.

Robert has showcased his talents in Las Vegas, on cruise ships, and at magic conventions globally. He offers a range of Comedy Magic Routines for fellow performers at robertbaxt.com/shop.html and writes jokes for other magicians. His version of the Newspaper Tear was featured on Penn and Teller’s “Fool Us,” and Joseph Gabriel shared his thoughts on Robert here: YouTube.

Residing in Los Angeles, California, Robert enjoys spending time with his wife and young son while pursuing acting opportunities. He appeared in the eighth season of CBS’s “How I Met Your Mother” as a lawyer partner to Jason Segel’s character, Marshall.

What will he teach?

Robert’s lecture focuses on Comedy Magic, featuring no complex sleights or card tricks. Instead, he presents practical material suitable for stage and parlor performances that is easy to transport yet delivers big laughs and leaves audiences wanting more.

Attendees will learn some of his signature routines, including the acclaimed mouth coil routine, which received a “Worker of the Week” title and a 98% score from the Wizard Product Review in England. He will also cover his Torn and Restored Newspaper effect, recently showcased by Penn and Teller on “Fool Us,” and his popular closing routine, the Bottle & Bag Baffler: The “NO EGG” Egg Bag!
