“Magic that is far from the Norm…” Not only
does Norman Ng’s magic defy the norm,
when the flash of inspiration that brought
this tagline came to him, he made it his mission
to live up to the hype. “I do a different
kind of magic show and it really is far from
the norm. I am very proud that my style is
very different from most other magicians. I
am the only guy I know of smashing cell
phones with baseball bats and hitting stuff
with hockey sticks.”
One of Norman’s most memorable signature
effects is when he picks out an audience
member, gets their cell phone,
smashes it and then restores it in front of
their very eyes. It’s great when material is
relevant to the audience and like a college
comic riffing on texting while driving, what
better audience prop to use than a cell
phone? This targeted sort of effect is no
accident in Norman’s case. While the college
market may be a stepping stone for
some, he has found a market and audience
he loves and has set out to specifically tailor
his show towards them.

Touring the college market itself now for
seven years and performing for 19, Norman
has a tremendous level of experience and
applies it directly toward developing his own
brand. “Developing this style of unique
magic took time,” he says. “When I first
started, I was performing more average
tricks but eventually realized through performing
(especially to college students) that
they wanted something more. I came up
with my tagline (interestingly enough on the
toilet, also known as the John, got me to
thinking about “Norm”…) and soon it became
much more. Not only was it my tagline,
but it became my mission statement. My
thinking fundamentally shifted and I was out
to do things differently after that.” Norman
took all of his old ideas back to the drawing
board. “My focus was specifically on something
the modern day college student would
enjoy. The idea of smashing a cell phone
with a baseball bat is an example. It is a take
off an old idea; magician’s have been breaking
stuff and putting it back together for a
long time, but this was a fresh twist and very
relatable to the 18-24 year old demographic.”

If it hasn’t come across clearly enough,
Norman directly attributes the campus
market with motivating him and inspiring
him to create the unique ideas that now
make him a signature act. The fact that he
has now been honored with an Award validating
his efforts leave him grateful, and
hungry to do even better. “I don’t look at
this as a career stepping stone, I look at it
as a driving force and a reason to create
better magic. I am pleased to perform for
campuses all across the country and even
more pleased to be honored with this
Award and want to thank all of my supporters.
I hope it to be the first time of many.” - Campus Activities Magazine
