Testimonials

“You were a wonderful addition to the party on Saturday night.  Your magic is absolutely top notch.  I have been producing events for over 20 years and I thought I had seen everything yet you blew me away.  As I walked through the party I heard the buzz of guests…  “did you see the magician?  you’ve got to see this guy,  he is incredible…” It is always nerve wracking to hire someone new – you exceeded expectations and I look forward to hiring you for future events.”

“James’ magic helped to engage a conversation with the attendees, having them ask more questions about our offerings. We collected more cards with warm leads than ever before! We were able to learn more about the prospective clients and what their needs were…People spent more time at our booth than any of the others.”

“James is an excellent magician. His style is fresh and his ability to relate quickly and easily to any audience is impeccable. Not only is James very funny, but his showmanship is accessible while being very professional. I would highly recommend James for any audience who wishes to be “wowed” and delighted.”

“I can’t thank you enough for all you did to help make our first annual Hands of Peace Gala an enjoyable and entertaining experience for all who attended. Everyone I spoke with was really amazed by the things you did! Your act was the perfect touch for our cocktail hour. You were a pleasure to work with. You were professional, “low-maintenance,” and exceptionally courteous from beginning to end. It was also great to have an entertainer who could amuse people of all different ages, since our audience ranged in age from teens to senior citizens. I would heartily recommend you to anyone holding an event like ours, and am so grateful that you could perform for us! Once again, thank you so much for all you did for Hands of Peace.”

“As both an audience member and as show producer who has cast James in variety shows, I’ve always been impressed with his personality, charm, and, of course, ability to amaze. His performances are both clever and entertaining, and his rapport with an audience is always positive and usually very immediate. His style of magic works well in both theater and more intimate settings, such as restaurants or parties.”
