James performed recently for a family reunion dinner. He was a hit from the little kids (youngest was 5) to the big kids (eldest was 84). He worked the room, table by table, and finished with some tricks in the center of the room for everyone. It really made the evening fun. James was very easy to work with, prompt in his responses, professional in every way. He showed up early, confirmed his attendance and all in all was a joy to work with. I recommend him without hesitation!

If you need anyone to entertain your guests so you don't have to, hire James! He provided us with hours of magic at our wedding reception and it was really fun. On top of being a passionate and talented magician, James is an all-around great guy. He was very accommodating and worked around our schedule. He is fantastic and well-recommended!

I hired James to come work a convention for DISH Network with over 1,000 attendees. He was absolutely phenomenal and I cannot say enough good things about him and his performance.
James was highly professional, responsive, punctual, and all together just on top of it. He brought his own equipment, arrived with plenty of time to spare, and set up meetings prior to the event to ensure he was delivering exactly what we needed for the convention. It was clear that he really cared about giving us the performance that fit our needs best!
As for the performance, we were all enthralled! I can't even count how many individuals came up to me or reached out to me expressing how much they enjoyed James' show during and after the event. Everyone who came up to me talked about his performance for at least a few minutes and were all upset when they learned he was only with us at the convention for one day! Everyone truly enjoyed every minute of it. James was so engaging with everyone walking around, and got a lot of attention for our booth. Absolutely a fan favorite out of all of the convention entertainment present.
Thank you again James! We will be sure to hire you in the future should we ever be in Vegas again :)

I make it a priority to give any new customer the opprtunity to tell me about their event and their desires. The more I know about your event, the better I can make it.
