He said he would come and our entire grade put in money to pay and never showed up. Especially after telling him the time continuously. At the end, our morning was ruined and he “forgot”.

Response from His Excellency General George Washington:
As I stated before I apologize.
I thought it was an evening performance.
I mainly perform on weekends and evenings.
I didn’t forget.
I’ve been performing as GW for 28 years.
Thank You for your interest.
I thought about it during my morning class.
I don’t usually do this. I am willing to give you a linkup to a taped presentation I did at the Tuckahoe Library as a Captain on the Continental Army.
It is on YouTube.
I’ve never missed a performance before. Sorry for the inconvenience.
We had George Washington speak for our co-op. He was very patient with all the childrens' questions and made it interesting for all ages in the audience. I would highly recommend him for your school function etc.

We had several technological glitches we should have been more forthcoming to address before the program. The quality of the presentation was very "eighteenth century" dark and blurry. Unfortunately Michael had problems on his end and had to switch out computers and we had to move forward with lots of patchwork. But we did get a full presentation and I am grateful for that

Very knowledgeable and entertaining. punctual and very professional in his image and demeanor. Very convincing character portrayal of Washington's younger years, his involvement in the war for independence and as our County's first President.

His Excellency General George Washington depicted an accurate account of his life during the time period of 1732 to 1799. He brought the character to life, and presented all the historical facts from memory. His costume was amazing and a good time was had by all. He was very punctual and I cannot say enough about what a great event it was.

Michael Grillo (His Excellency) was a hit! He handled his interactions with the audience fantastically. It was outstanding to have him on stage with my champions AND Ben Franklin!

We hired General George Washington for our sons' birthday party. His performance was engaging and informative, enjoyed by both the children and adults in attendance. He was deeply knowledgeable about Washington's life and the historical period, handling all questions and interactions with ease. He truly brought the character to life and made sure it was a wonderful and unique experience. Our sons will always remember this very special day!
