The adventure and story of Jacksonville, North Carolina based magician duo, The Rockstar Magic of Chris and Neal. Chris Bays and Neal Chamberlain began performing together as an illusionist team in early 2009. Crowds began to immediately respond positively to the stage dynamics and quick-witted banter Chris and Neal both brought to the performance. Even at a birthday party, Chris and Neal always bring their very best.

Early into their work together, with the hand of God's blessing and some strong business tactics Chris was able to leave his day job in the corporate world to pursue magic full-time. Since that day Chris and Neal have worked tirelessly many long nights and early mornings to create the brand now in place today.

Despite many obstacles, hurdles and some large roadblocks God has continued to lead Chris and Neal in their development of Rockstar Magic. In the early days Chris and Neal performed primarily for children's birthday parties -- which remains a favorite to this day. As time has passed, new adventures have been sprouted where Chris and Neal have used their talents to perform in schools, libraries and churches.

Summer 2012 was a pivotal season for Chris and Neal as this was their first year to tour the state of North Carolina performing in public libraries with their brand new Dream Big magic show. The focus of this presentation was encouraging children to believe in their dreams and more importantly, to believe in themselves.

Back in 2013 Chris and Neal began presenting the gospel through the use of illusions in churches for VBS and other events. The magic tricks were used as highly visual tools for communicating the life saving message of hope in Jesus Christ. Since then Chris and Neal have presented the gospel across several states and in many churches.

In 2014 Chris and Neal began presenting anti-bullying programming in elementary schools across Jacksonville, Wilmington, Zebulon and more. These programs encourage children to stand up for what is right, to be a buddy not a bully. This work in elementary schools led Chris and Neal to eye an opportunity for a wider range of assembly options including shows for character education and more.

"Recently I booked 'Chris & Neal' at our family entertainment center, Mac Daddy's. Our facility is a 37,500 sft entertainment center and they had it filled with smiling faces of children in awe. Several times I looked into the audience and I couldn't be more pleased with the 'oohs and the ahhhs' rising from the crowd. The children were mesmerized by the magic and the adults were equally entertained by the flash of fire and the breeze of the doves wings. We will definitely book 'Chris & Neal' for future events" Connie Nolter -- Mac Daddy's G.M

"It was a great success. Parents told me afterwards that they enjoyed the performance. Throughout the show kids were laughing and clapping and enjoying their magic tricks and slapstick gags. A beautiful white rabbit played a role in the magic, and it was high energy and engaging. The music was catchy and attention grabbing, and Chris and Neal made it a point to use "reverse psychology" to encourage kids to check out magic books, and they added many positive slogans to their routine touting a library card as their favorite card, encouraging kids to achieve in life by reading, etc. Thank you Chris and Neal!" - Rosey Clark (Smith Mountain Lake VA Public Library)

"The Rockstar Magic of Chris and Neal was terrifically entertaining with great illusions, fantastic attitude and message, easy and professional set-up and a lot of library love! We had over 200 school aged children from various summer camps across Catawba county and they were enthusiastic from start to finish. The set and the music got their attention, the illusions amazed and entertained them, and they were enthralled by the whole experience. Thanks so much for a great magic show!" - Carole Dennis (Hickory Public Library, Ridgeview Branch)

"We all loved your performance! Many parents said it was awesome and thanked Jamestown Public Library for hosting your magic show. We were all very glad the fire marshal didn't show up for an inspection that day; our auditorium was overflowing with children and parents. Thanks for such a great start to our summer reading program, as well as the life lessons." Carole Reed (Jamestown Public Library)

"Rockstar Magic with Chris and Neal had kids and parents alike staring in wonder as they opened the summer reading program at the Jamestown Public Library with their amazing feats of magic and illusion. From a rabbit disappearing from one container and appearing in another to the levitation of a girl from the audience, the show was fast paced and exciting. Of course, Chris and Neal were quick to tell the audience that they could make their own kind of magic with books that could both entertain and inform. The two encouraged all the kids to check out a book before leaving the library and to read throughout the summer." Norma Dennis - Jamestown News (Jamestown Public Library)

The North Carolina based PeeDee Post recently titled Chris & Neal as "Carolina's Most Popular Magicians", and their enthusiastic client/fan base seems to agree! Read more information HERE.

"The Rockstar Magic Show presented for McColl School students in July was totally awesome!! Our library has engaged magic performers before, but your show was by far the most professional, the most entertaining, the most energetic, all the while interjecting science facts and information in an engaging way. The students absolutely loved the performance as did the staff. Marlboro County is such a rural county with transportation a problem for many. Being able to take your show to the one school already in session was a big part of our outreach summer reading program. You talked about libraries and the importance of reading and we were able to get the name of the public library out there through you. A few days after your performance, one of the principals called me and thanked us profusely for sharing our programming with McColl students through your performance. They are making a huge banner to display at the school and will also share one with us." Virginia McCraw — Marian Wright Edelman Public Library
