Thank you Gary. Your close-up magic was absolutely the best we have ever seen. You really helped to make our evening "magical". I searched for quite a while looking for a person with the skill set level that I wanted for this event and was thrilled to see I chose wisely! You captivated your audience with your exquisite expertise. You were fabulous. Every one raved about you. I know who I will call when I want the best for any event-- you. I will whole heartedly recommend you. Thanks again. Job well done!

Gary is amazing. He was a big hit at our fundraising event. The casual strolling performance is awesome because he just moves around all night and engages with people. His tricks really blew my mind. He has this small stand/table he brings around and it makes it so easy. I know guests were thrilled. It was for sure a highlight of the night. For sure hire him to enhance any event!

Hi Judy,
Thank you for the very nice comments. I enjoyed seeing all the smiling faces and the laughter we all shared at your party.
Thanks again.
Thank you for making Father's Day a smash success for the women's club. It was my last event and I am thrilled to end my three years with a truly perfect event. The feedback couldn't have been better. Everyone enjoyed your show and didn't want it to end. Standing ovations are not common for a club event but everyone was standing in response to a wonderful show. As our message board said..Bravo, Bravo, Bravo.
My best,

Gary entertained about 100 guests at our home for an annual holiday party. His close up - strolling magic was awesome. Guests were very impressed. He is very a professional entertainer, more than just a magician. I would recommend him without reservation.

I hired Gary while I was in Chicago for my mother's 80th birthday party in Delrey. I spoke with him several times by phone and found him very professional, enthusiastic and knowledgable about how to entertain for a personal group at the appropriate age level.
The day of the event came and Gary was fabulous. His personality and comedy got everyone engaged and excited. His magical skills and performance was outstanding. The party was 2 weeks ago and all my mom,s friends are still talking about it. My mother now loves lemons.

We had the pleasure of working with Gary on a multi-cultural Tea Party with approximately 200 guests. He mesmerized the audience with his magic and mind reading acts, while using comedy to entertain us all. At the end of the show, Gary made it snow onstage, and everyone present gave him a very well deserved standing ovation. I would definitely recommend Gary Goodman's show.

This is Gary Goodman's fourth consecutive year at our school. Every year, he provided an engaging and amazing show that both the students and parents enjoy. Every one of his shows has sold out. We look forward to more years of Gary's great magic and illusions!

“On behalf of the Portsmouth, NH Rotary Club, I want to thank you for your incredible performance at the Music Hall. While the money raised was impressive in itself, your illusions, magic and mind reading were the topic of discussion for weeks afterward. The executive director of the Music Hall said he has not heard the audience laugh so much or for so long. The 350 members of the Rotary were so impressed by your family show that they want you back next year to headline once again! Your STANDING OVATION was well deserved.

“For days, our members have been talking about everything from the Houdini Escape, the sword through the neck of a 4-Star US Army General, the $100 Lemon, and of course the baby photo of Tom Cruise (smile).
