Kevin was easy to work with from the hiring process, through the planning and performance. He is dedicated to his work and his audience, and his enthusiasm, talent and personal experience all come together in a fabulous show that is sure to entertain. We are a non-profit serving people with disabilities and we hired him as keynote speaker/entertainer for a celebration banquet following a job mentoring experience for high school students looking forward to transitioning into the workforce after graduation. They loved the performance and couldn't stop laughing. Kevin was a perfect fit.

Kevin Horner did a great job at our Holiday party. He involved the audience, and prepared for the party in advance so he could personalize the show to the characters. Everyone enjoyed the show so much that it was the talk of the office the following Monday. The human puppet routine was a hit using our boss as his puppets. Great time had by all. So So Funny. Thanks Kevin for making our party a hit. I received lots of kudos for booking this kind of show. Kept him a secret until that night.

Wow! What to say and keep it short?! Kevin is simply AMAZING, and I knew as soon as I spoke to him the very first time that I had to reserve him! Kevin took the time to learn about our organization- who we are, and what we do. Our event had attendees that ranged in age from 1 yr old to 70+. We had several cancellations due to weather, illness, and a funeral, but Kevin rolled with it and our attendees had so much fun! Kevin brought so much fun and laughter! His show is clean, funny, and great for ALL ages!! His wife is his assistant and she’s so kind! I can’t stress enough how much I recommend Kevin Horner for your show! Our faces hurt after the show from from laughing so hard! He was the highlight of our retreat weekend!
Thank you, Kevin, for making our survivors smile! I’d give you 10 stars if I could!

Kevin provided a wonderful performance that exactly fit the needs of our Upward basketball and cheerleading end of season celebration. He was funny and really engaged the audience, both young and old. The kids especially liked his magic and his puppet friend "Cookie." He added a Christian message that was thoughtful and appropriate.

Kevins performance was great, all the kids loved it... He totally spiced up our Christmas party.. We definitely recommend him. Very friendly and loving. Awesome job Kevin!!
Comedy Magician
Kevin Horner is a truly extraordinary performer. From the initial email contact, all the way though the live performance, his professionalism and kindness was outstanding! I hired Kevin for a family gathering, a surprise birthday party for my father's 75th birthday, and when he performed he left everyone rolling on the ground. His characters are amazing, and he came with unique and original ideas to fit our needs. Kevin and his wife are down to earth, very friendly people, and easy to communicate with. Whether your gathering is 10 people or 2000, Kevin Horner Live is a sure bet and he will not disappoint! Thank you Kevin for such an awesome performance and experience!
