Mentalism. Close-up magic. Theatrical impossibility. The Orlando Oracle transforms private galas, corporate events, and trade shows into experiences people talk about for years.

Born in Oslo, Norway, Sebastian Gerhardt began performing magic at age seven — captivated by the way Close-Up magic created instant connection. That same passion has taken him from living rooms to boardrooms, with performances for SunTrust, Lockheed Martin, Arris, LG, Wells Fargo, and the Orlando Magic.
He's an award-winning member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians, recognized in MagicSeen and MAGIC Magazine, and served as the official magician of the Orlando Magic. After surviving a battle with brain cancer in 2018, Sebastian brings more than tricks to the table — he brings a message: that miracles, when real, can transform people.
"I don't just perform magic. I create moments that make people feel something real." — Sebastian Gerhardt
"I don't perform to deceive. I perform to remind. To bring people back to that place — where the impossible feels possible, and magic feels real."
— Sebastian Gerhardt

Popular dates fill quickly — especially Friday and Saturday evenings. I recommend reaching out 4–8 weeks in advance, though I can sometimes accommodate shorter timelines.
Close-up magic requires nothing but your guests. Group shows need a small performance area and a basic sound system. I'll walk you through everything during our consultation.
Absolutely. I perform nationwide and have entertained at events across the country — from New York galas to Silicon Valley corporate retreats.
Mentalism focuses on the mind — thought reading, predictions, and psychological demonstrations. It's magic without props, and it creates a completely different kind of astonishment.
From an intimate dinner of 10 to a corporate event of 500+. I'll recommend the right format — close-up, stage show, or a combination — based on your event.
Every consultation is complimentary. We'll discuss your event vision, guest count, venue, and I'll recommend the perfect experience. No pressure, no obligation.
Whether you're planning a private celebration, corporate event, or something a little more unusual — let's create a moment your guests will never forget.
