“Impeccable crowd work, talented improvisation, and self-deprecating comedy are all spot-on. Tim is just so damn charming." – Todd Stewart, Orlando Sentinel

Tim Hoffman has been entertaining audiences for over 15 years as a comedian and improviser. He's trained at SAK Comedy Lab in Orlando, FL and the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in Los Angeles, CA. He's been part of the weekday ensemble at SAK, and been a part of groups that have performed at improv festivals in Miami, Ybor City, Tampa, and Orlando.

A couple years ago he began to transition from comedian to magician, with performances at festivals around Florida. After several years of touring, he has now written, produced, and starred in magic shows at festivals and conventions all around the world in places like Toronto, Orlando, Tampa Bay, San Jose, Edmonton, San Francisco, Indianapolis, and Los Angeles. He's performed as a duo, solo, with and without assistants. He's performed in front of 1000+ seat corporate events, 300+ college audiences, and to sold out houses in theaters in the US and Canada.

He performs primarily mentalism and credits his biggest magical influences as Derren Brown and Penn & Teller. A powerglove, a can of spam, a talking robot, a bullet catch with a laser tag gun, a fish serial killer, and bombs that keep accidentally multiplying. Tim's routines are full of originality and surprises that will leave everyone laughing nonstop all while asking "how did he do that?!"

His shows utilize his improv background heavily, with routines that are unlike anything you've seen before, even if you may have seen tricks like those being performed. With props and unique spins on classics, as well as inventions completely of his own devising. There is nothing he loves more than interacting with an audience, so every trick has an interactive component.

In 2015 he relocated from Orlando to Los Angeles. Tim is a member of the Academy Of Magical Arts and the Magic Castle.

"This silly mix of magic and improv [is] a hoot [...] The real magic here is in Hoffman’s charisma." – Matt Palm, Orlando Sentinel
