Dates fill quickly, so the sooner you book the better your chances of getting the date and time you want. A <em><u>minimum</u></em> of one week’s notice is required</span></p> <p class="style16"><strong>Q: What are your rates?</strong><br /> <strong>A: </strong>Since every booking is different each show can be customized to fit your particular event. Depending on your budget, we can put together a show that will work best for the budget you have set for your event. Keep in mind that outside of the Austin area there may be additional travel costs. Give us a call today and we can give you a quote right away.</p> <p class="style16"><strong>Q: Which show would be best for my party or event?</strong><br /> <strong>A: </strong>That depends entirely upon what type of event and the location of your event. They can range from a seated audience with a performance area to an informal event with strolling magic. If you are having a banquet or dinner, we can do both! Some strolling magic before dinner, then the stage show immediately after dinner. Contact today and we can help you decide on the show that best suits your particular party or event. </p> <p class="style16"><strong>Q: How much space is needed for your show?</strong><br /> <strong>A: </strong>For the stage show it can be performed in an 8’ x 8’ area. The strolling magic has no space requirements. </p> <p class="style16"><strong>Q: </strong> <strong>Do you perform outdoors?</strong><br /> <strong>A: </strong>Shows can be performed outdoors, however, it is recommended that all shows be performed indoors if possible. If you are having an outdoor event some factors will not allow for the performance of my stage show, such as wind, extreme heat, cold or rain. Strolling magic can be performed outdoors weather permitting. If you have an outdoor event we suggest a weather contingency plan in the event of extreme weather. Contact us if you have any questions about your event.</p> <p class="style16"><strong>Q: Are your shows appropriate for all ages?</strong><br /> <strong>A: </strong>Yes! All of the material in the show is family friendly. There is nothing inappropriate and is great for ages 1 to 100. </p> <p class="style16"><strong>Q: Do you work with live animals?</strong><br /> <strong>A: </strong>Yes. The stage show and some of the strolling magic involve small animals that are also family friendly.</p> <p class="style16"><strong>Q: Can you travel to my event?</strong><br /> <strong>A: </strong>Yes. The show does not include travel expenses for events outside of the Austin area. If your event is in the surrounding area such as Round Rock, Georgetown, San Marcos, Buda, Kyle, Bastrop, Smithville, Lago Vista, Cedar Park, Leander areas travel is included in the show price. Travel within the state of Texas will be added to the cost of the show. Arrangements can be made for further travel.</p> </td> <td width="347" background="images/stars_bkg.gif" bgcolor="#000000"><div align="center"> <p><img src="images/dellmed16.JPG" alt="" width="260" height="194" /></p> <p><br /> <br /> </p> <p><img src="images/1937620180_1c24f038c4.jpg" alt="" width="260" height="325" /><br /> <br /> </p> <p> </p> <p><img src="images/166869615_072008 104.jpg" alt="" width="260" height="201" /></p> </div></td> </tr> </table> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <div class="style7" id="footer">  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://s31.sitemeter.com/js/counter.js?site=s31timdietz"> </script> <noscript> </noscript> <div id="footer" style="">  <br /> </div> <div id="footer2"><a href="index.html">Home</a> | <a href="shows.html">Magic Shows</a> | <a href="gallery.html">Gallery</a> | <a href="comedyaustin.html">Comedy</a> | <a href="entertaineraustin.html">Entertainer</a> | <a href="illusionsaustin.html">Illusions</a>| <a href="faq.html">FAQS</a> | <a href="clients.html">Clients</a>| <a target="_blank" href="http://thimeosmagic.blogspot.com/" title="View our Magicians Show BLog">BLog</a>| <a href="illusionistaustin.html">Illusionist</a> | <a href="entertainmentaustin.html">Entertainment</a> | <a href="magicaustin.html">Magic</a> | <a href="performeraustin.html">Performer</a> <br></br> <br></br> <div id="footer1">Copyright ©2009 Thimeos Magic</div></br> </div> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.webinsiteinc.com/" title="Website SEO"> Updates & SEO by Web Insite, Inc.</a> <script type="text/javascript"> var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?
