Magee's main showcase as a performer was in cabaret, notably at the West Bank Cafe, where he was a staple since the 1980s. His act was a blend of stand-up and piano music, often including impersonations of singers and songwriters or mangled versions of pop songs. Later work included music and lyrics for a stage show based on PBS' Arthur and opera parody songs for a 2000 appearance by the Will & Grace cast at the Metropolitan Opera.
