Andy was everything we were looking for in an entertainer/juggler-and more! I was very impressed with how his performance catered to all ages that attended out family event. Parents, older kids, and our preschool students were all laughing and enjoying the experience. Andy was also very professional- arrived with plenty of time to set up and was able to adjust when our participants were running a little late. I would suggest Andy for anyone looking for an engaging performer!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thanks Maria for the nice review!
It was an honor to be part of your family night event.
I was looking for a 30-minute act that could entertain 200 10-year-olds on a Friday night...a tough task to fill, and Andy was PERFECT. The kids were engaged for every second of his show, and are still talking about it the next week! He is silly with vintage charm, and immediately knew how to rein the kids in if they were getting too excited. He used both kids and parents in his show, which was fun for everyone to watch. He's super talented and even stayed after the show to do some tricks on the side for the kids who wanted to meet him. He was truly the celebrity at our event, and will definitely be booking him again in the future! Thanks so much, Andy!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thanks again Lisa for inviting me to entertain the students, it was a pleasure performing for them!
And thanks for the wonderful review, I really appreciate it. Warm regards, Andy Head
We had over 100 kids at the Fundraiser last night and Andy was the highlight of the night!!! Kids absolutely loved him. He is one of the best out there. Book him for your next event you won’t regret it!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Sara, thanks for booking me and for the great review!
This was ABSOLUTELY fantastic. I run a summer camp of around 150 kids and we are always looking for new guests to come in. Andy came and the kids LOVED HIM (so did the staff)! He was so kind and is so talented! Made for doing this type of this work. Will continue to use him in the future! 20/10 would recommend!
We had our Cub Scout blue and gold ceremony, which Andy performed. He was great with the kids and had everyone laughing and engaged.
It was a very fun show!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thanks Kevin! It was my pleasure. Great group of kids.
Andy was very engaging, high energy and knew how to get the crowd to participate.
So much FUN!
Andy exceeded our expectations for our Senior Circus event. He was non-stop fun from start to finish and engaged with the audience the entire time. He was professional and an expert at his craft. I would highly recommend him for your event.
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thanks Kellie for inviting me to perform for your Senior Circus luncheon. It was great fun!
Andy came out and brought the excitement and excellent entertainment. His enthusiasm, stage presence and audience interaction was second to none! Andy is the Best, we are so glad he was available for us. He completely exceeded our expectations and made our family birthday party a hit! Don’t think about it, just book him. You will be glad you did! Thank you Andy! I’m not sure who laughed harder between the adults or the kids. All loved it!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thanks Will for the fantastic review! I really appreciate it. Your friends and family made my job a joy and a pleasure.
Andy was the perfect addition to our daughter’s recent birthday party! He welcomes guests on a unicycle, encouraged them to balance a ball on a rubber chicken and had fun jokes which entertained guests of all ages! Andy brings the fun and keeps the energy up and has a way of engaging all guests in his show. It’s so fun to be a part of and to watch. Certainly not least, Andy’s juggling capabilities were impressive and exciting- it added another dynamic to the party. We’re so glad we had Andy bring the fun!!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Wow! Thanks for nice review and positive feedback.
It was great fun performing for your family and friends.
Everyone had a great time! Thanks Andy!
Andy was great with all the kids. The show was super interactive and the teachers had nothing but great things to say! We’re definitely looking forward to having him back next summer for our camp.
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thanks Brittney for the positive feedback and review. I really appreciate it.
The children and staff loved to have Andy at our school. He was funny, entertaining, and had the children's attention the whole time. He was prompt and very adaptable to our area. With a wide variety of ages, we were please to see that all of the children were happy to have Andy perform.
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thanks Danni!
It was my pleasure performing for such a great group of kids.
Andy was great with our students and even our 2 year old's lasted the whole show!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thanks Lauren for having me out. It was great fun!
I had Andy for my son's 1st birthday party. He did such a great job entertaining everyone from babies to full grown adults. Fun was had by all and we could not be happier with how it all turned out. I highly recommend having Andy at your next event... you won't be disappointed.
Andy was the best! We had him for our sons 1st birthday and he entertained the whole party children and adults. He puts on a fantastic show and our guests wouldn’t stop talking about what an amazing time they had! We highly recommend him! Thank you Andy!
Andy did an amazingly funny show. So happy we were able to get him for the party. He far exceeded our expectations. He had young and old engaged with participation, jokes, and of course the juggling. He kept all laughing throughout the show. We would Totally recommend him for a birthday party, corporate event or any function.
Andy was incredible from start to finish! He responded quickly to all of my messages, arrived ahead of time, and put on a phenomenal show for everyone at my son’s 6th birthday party. He also made sure to include things related to basketball, which was my son’s birthday theme. Every parent came up to me afterwards noting how awesome he was.
Andy was fantastic! He entertained the kids, was friendly and on time and super easy to communicate with. We really enjoyed having him and his wonderful show made the party very memorable for our children. Thank you Andy!!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
You're welcome Sonya!
Thanks for hiring me. Liam and all of his friends were great!
Andy’s show was entertaining for kids and adults. There were many opportunities for audience participation as well. We were glad we chose Andy Head for our event.
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thanks Tim!
You put on a great neighborhood event and it was an honor to be a part of it.
We I laughed so hard that we were in tears. It was really nice that she includes the audience in the show. He showed up early and just a super sweet guy. You will not be disappointed worth every penny!
Our group of kids (ages 6-9) really loved the show. It's a good mix of juggling, balancing and comedy for the kids. Andy Head was easy to work with and responded promptly to planning messages before the show.
Andy was an amazing performer! I hired him for my sons birthday party (10 and 8 yr old). As soon as he started the show, he got the whole audience laughing. Not only did he have the kids entertained, he had all of the adults attention too! His show was full of so much fun and laughter. Andy not only included both of my sons in his show, but some of the other kids there too, which made it so wonderful! He was so interactive with the audience and just made everyone smile and laugh! He also spent such a nice amount of time with all of the kids after his show teaching them how to juggle. My boys absolutely loved him and so did all of the adults! I still have people telling me how awesome his show was! Thanks, Andy, for such a wonderful experience!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
You’re very welcome, Jaclyn!
It was my honor and pleasure to entertain everyone at the party. I'm especially happy that the two birthday boys loved it. Keep up the good work of raising good kids! And thank you for the kind kudos, it means a lot to me.
Warm regards, Andy Head
Andy was amazing for my daughter's 5th birthday party. I couldn't describe how great Andy was except by saying he had the kids and adults captivated the entire show! The whole room was laughing.
My boys wanted a juggler for their 5th and 8th birthday party. Andy did not disappoint. Friends and family raved about him. Perfect amount of awe and comedy to keep the adults and kids entertained. Thanks Andy!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Thank you Jaime for the kind words. It's was a pleasure and an honor to perform for the birthday boys, along with all of your friends and family.
Andy provided the absolute top notch entertainment and professionalism. Talking to Andy before and after my daughter's party I came to learn what a terrific human being he is. The whole crowd of kids and adults alike (including me) were very entertained with lots of laughter and jaw droping stares with awe. You will not be dissapointed in hiring Andy Head for your entertainment needs!!
The show was great! The kids and adults loved it! It was funny and entertaining! Highly recommend!
Response from Andy Head: Wonderful Wacky Juggler:
Dear Giorgiana,
Thank you for the rave review. It was great fun entertaining your family and friends at Edward's birthday party.
Happy Holidays, Andy Head
Hi Andy,
Just wanted to say “Thank You” again for helping make my daughter’s graduation very memorable. I always judge how good a party is by how much it is talked about afterwards. Your show was continually talked about the rest of the weekend. The kids were playing with their feathers all day Monday. While you caught me off guard by pulling me onstage, it provided plenty of laughs. Keep doing what you are doing…it provided fun and laughter for all!
One of your newest fans,
Dave
I also liked your idea of putting video clips of the smaller parties you do.
Andy put on such a great show with fun, laughter, juggling and audience participation. He was such a nice guy and treated the kids great. I highly recommend Andy's show for people of all ages. It reminds me of all the old comedy shows we used to see.
This summer we hired National Juggling Champion Andy Head to headline our neighborhood summer festival. He exceeded our expectations. For an hour Andy kept the attention of dozens of young children riveted on him--no easy feat given that this was an outdoor show and the kids had already consumed plenty of pop and treats.
The adults loved Andy's show, too, especially his gravity defying tricks with a top hat and his uncanny ability to ride on a unicycle blindfolded while juggling. Remarkably, he performed this feat while carrying a grade-school age boy on his shoulders.
Then, after the show, Andy entertained the kids with an impromptu lesson on how to balance a peacock feather; and graciously gave each of the children a souvernir feather to keep. Many audience members felt compelled to "tip" Andy by chipping in extra money for the memorable performance.
I highly recommend Andy Head. His charm, wit, and extraordinary talent are a wise investment for any group.
