Santa could do no wrong! He's Santa!
Larry Zamba was fun and willing to do whatever it took to make the audience happy including taking pictures with children.
Came on time and stayed as needed, and with true Santa-like character. Thank you!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
It varies according to the location and complexity of the request.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
We've been at this since 1980 - and have performed for tens of thousands of clients!
How did you get started doing this type of work?
It seemed like a fun way to make an extra $25 a week back in 1980 - it turned out much bigger than I thought it would ever be. I began by borrowing a friends gorilla suit, and it took off from there.
