SCHREIBEN
ABOUT
Schreiben (Daniel Shriver) is a Philadelphia-based mentalist whose performances blend elegant parlor magic with thought-provoking mentalism.
With over 16 years of experience, Schreiben invites guests into an evening where free will unravels, choices reveal their inevitability, and even chaos appears destined. His signature routines explore the statistical wonder of cards, conspiracies like Nikola Tesla’s rumored time machine, and the deeper question of whether we truly shape our fate—or merely discover it has already been written.
A featured performer with Evoute Burlesque and star of "KAIDAN: An Evening with 100 Spirits" at the Philadelphia Fringe Festival, Schreiben crafts shows designed for formal, discerning audiences who crave not just wonder, but reflection.
WHO IS
SCHREIBEN?
Daniel Shriver, 32, has been performing his love of magic for more than 15 years. But his passion started much earlier than that. His love of the arts spans from singing, acting and painting.
2019 marked a year of struggle where he overwent a battle with bone cancer. By divine intervention, it was discovered and surgically removed, with 2 ribs being removed as a precaution.
His battle to normalcy continues to this day, and hopes his experience and his journey might inspire his children to follow their dreams
Daniel resides in Mullica Hill, NJ with his wife Michaela, two children, and dog Moose (Moosey-Goosey).
