Our Story
A “Must See Austin Experience” for over 40 years, Esther’s Follies has been entertaining sold-out audiences with its unique blend of political satire, sketch comedy, and award-winning magic. Hailed as “Austin’s answer to Saturday Night Live”, this show is filled with sharp insightful comedy ripped right from the headlines. While Ray Anderson’s Vegas-style magic baffles audiences with his grand illusions that make him one of the nation’s leading magicians.
Esther’s is an equal opportunity satirical revue—fond of skewering both political parties and using the absurd in politics and pop culture as a foundation for their sketches. The end result is a smartly funny, unifying experience for a politically diverse audience, where everyone laughs under one roof.
If laughter is the best medicine, Esther's Follies can cure what ails you!

My Southwestern University friends- did y'all know we have THREE alumni performing at Esther's Follies right now?! I was stoked to see that some of the best performers were fellow pirates 🏴☠️! Seriously make sure to stop by and see a show! You will be blown away by the talent- pretty sure we may see one on the big screen - she's got some pipes!
There’s a small category of magician that I’ve always looked up to: performers who have quietly cultivated long term residencies in a single location and do really good work but who are not particularly well known amongst magic hobbyists. They’re out there slaying night after night, but if you walked up to a magic convention attendee and said “what do you think of ___” there’s a good chance they’d have no idea who you were talking about. That’s unfortunate because their work deserves more attention.
Here are five of my favorites in this category, if you happen to be where they’re doing their thing definitely go see their show:
- Ray Anderson | Esther's Follies | Austin, TX
- Robert Hall | Magic Fusion at The Loft Tahoe | South Lake Tahoe, CA
- Tony Brent | The Outta Control Magic Comedy Dinner Show at WonderWorks Orlando | Orlando, FL
- Terry Ward | The Great Magic Hall | Orlando, FL
- Mike Hammer | Four Queens Hotel & Casino | Las Vegas, NV
And, thanks to Steve Hinrichs for reminding me of Christian Painter and Katalina Absolon | Mind Tripping Show | Indianapolis, IN — it was a big oversight of mine to not have them in the initial post
Update:
This list is by no means intended to be “the list.” These are folks who 1. Currently have a long term residency where you can see them, 2. Whose show I’ve personally seen, and 3. Are relatively lesser known in the general magic community. I have not seen everyone out there and don’t know of everyone out there, so please continue to add your own favorites in the comments.

This year Hound Rescue has rescued almost 100 hounds from shelters, abusive situations, hoarding situations, and owner surrenders. Our medical bills have been catastrophic due to hounds who were hit by a car and required surgery, had distemper or parvo, required cancer surgery, had a severe parasite infestation, and an immunocompromised hound.
To try and raise funds to help more hounds, we are going to be hosting an online auction. We have had wonderful community partners donate fabulous items and are very excited for you to see them! The Sports themed gift basket will be up for bids within the next 48 hours. Keep following for the link to the auction.
