Brad did a great job at our daughter's 20th birthday. We had family and friends from ages 18 months to 80+ years. Brad was very entertaining and everyone was engaged. Brad is very reasonably priced, he was punctual and adjusted his show to meet our needs. We would hire him again!
Brad came over to entertain the kids for my son's 4th Birthday party. He brought pure magic to the party. His captivating tricks not only had the kids in stitches but also kept the adults thoroughly entertained. His interactive and engaging performance made the celebration truly memorable. Highly recommend!
Brad was incredibly easy to work with and we had a lot of people at the party comment on how great he was! He helped make my husband's 40th birthday party a success!
I gave 3 stars because I think he needs to improve and innovate. His tricks wasn't much creative. Even for kids 5 to 9 ages. They were basics and he wasn't really entertaining.
Brad was wonderful, the kids loved him and the adults also enjoyed the show. Thanks Brad,
Brad arrived early, was very easy to get along with and delighted our crowd. Would definitely book again!
Brad provided entertainment and magic for my son's 4th birthday. The show lasted for about an hour. The kids were remained completely attentive and entertained for the show's duration, what I consider magic in it of itself :) He is really amazing with kids. The parents kept entertained as well. He seems versatile enough to customize his show to the audience. Thanks Brad.

I booked Brad for a small birthday party for adults, definitely not an easy crowd but he killed it! Brad was hilarious and a good sport, the hour flew by and everyone had a great time. Professional and entertaining!
Brad was very entertaining and kept the crowd involved. I would definitely recommend him.
We contacted Brad for a Beaver and Cub meeting. It is hard to engage both 5 year olds and 9 year olds , but Brad did a great job! The kids absolutely loved him and he was super patient with all the questions and noise that a 5 year olds make. This will be an experience we talk about for a long time! 10/10 would recommend!!
I'm so glad we hired Brad for my son's 6th birthday party this was his first party with all of his friends from school so he was excited for them to have a great time too and they all laughed so much thoughout the entire show. Brad came early to set up and had the kids entertained for an hour. After the show the kids said best birthday party ever!!!

Brad came out to perform at our daughter's 8th birthday party. We were a smaller crowd, but Brad made it feel big and special. He was sweet and silly with all the kids (ages 2 - 13), and had everyone constantly laughing. The kids absolutely adored all of his magic, and I would, without hesitation, highly recommend him to anyone looking far a magician for a family party. Brad is a truly lovely person, and we would love to have him back again someday. Thanks again, Brad for making our daughter's day so special.
Brad was wonderful and funny! The kids loved his performance and are still talking about it days later. Brad was on time and professional. I would recommend him for a kids bday party 👍
What a wonderful show Brad put on for my sons 7th birthday party! The kids just loved it and won’t stop talking about it!
Brad was great!
Made everyone laugh, had great tricks, was very professional. I highly recommend (:
Brad was incredible. He truly captivated the attention of 20 kids for a solid hour. They were simultaneously in awe and in stitches.
Highly recommend!
My second graders had a great time with Brad! His tricks were perfectly appropriate for the age group. Would definitely recommend him to anyone hosting a children's party.
Brad did a fantastic job captivating the young ones during our Family Day celebration. Great cheesy sense of humour and tried and true close up magic. Would recommend for any child party/event!
Really happy with our experience! Amazing sense of humor, had the kids belly laughing. Highly recommend!
Very funny for the kids, made the show very enjoyable for them!
I was sceptical at first, but amazed at the end, wonderful show for adults.

Brad arrived early in order to unpack all of his stuff and was very well prepared to make changes on the fly. He performed for a birthday party of 10 children and managed to work each of the children into his act as an assistant. They roared with laughter throughout the entire show and were thoroughly entertained. I would highly recommend Brad for any event as he was engaging, professional, and a wonderful performer!
Brad was fantastic with the kids and had great comedy interaction with all ages of this party. Was a huge success
