Captain Red was an absolute delight for the kids. We had around 30 kids for the party and he kept them all so occupied with his costume, balloon making, face painting and bringing an actual rabbit to the event. Every kid I talked to, they mentioned they absolutely loved the party and that was because of ❤️❤️❤️ Captain Red. Thank you so much for making my son’s 5th birthday party an absolute success 🙏🏼🙏🏼 To all the folks out there, use his services. You will not regret it!

Details: Birthday party • 21 - 40 guests • 4 - 6 years old • Simple balloon twisting (e.g., one-balloon dog) • Face painting is needed

I hired captain Red for my daughter's birthday party and he arrived early, was quick to set up. The kids were kept engaged for the time he promised to be there for. They had a ton of fun! I'm so glad to have hired him, I'll recommend him to family and friends that are looking for an entertainer for kid's parties. He offers face painting, balloon twisting and even a treasure hunt.

I would choose all descriptions given but it would only allow 3 so there you go.. But overall, Captain Red is our new favorite performer! He was very lively and enthusiastic, even the most timid kid in the party was able to express enthusiasm!! He’s very professional and punctual! He arrived an hour early to our house. He made sure everything is all setup before he starts his performance!! He’s like a one-man-band. He did balloon twisting with stories and trivias! He did face painting with animal stories and facts. He did some bubbles with the kids. He did catching toy fishes and gave everyone (who catches a fish) a ring as a token. He also did a treasure hunt which led everyone following him to scare away the pirates. He let the kids go through a hoolahoop and pretended that they’ve entered in another dimension. They marched towards the treasure that he said to be a sea monster! So everybody got a little skeptical in opening the pan which actually had a bunny inside! That made every kid’s heart skipped a beat! The bunnies were so cute! He performs unconditionally, come rain or shine! Captain Red is totally worth paying for! *he deserves a tip**

Captain Red Entertainment's reply

Roselyn, we love all of our great reviews; however, this has to get the "best trophy" review. You have nailed it on so many points about his show. Yes, you are so right about Captain Red being a "one man band" show. He does it all! He thoroughly enjoys making everyone smile, laugh and share great memories! Thank you so much for the great recommendation!
