“Matt Baker was easy to work with, funny, talented, high energy on stage, and very entertaining. I would see his show again and still laugh just as much as the first time I saw his show.”
Matt Baker did a family show at the Lake Stevens Boys and Girls Club. People of all ages attended and the feedback was great! one 3 year old boy kept coming back and asking when the funny guy was going to be there. The moms in the audience told us they loved the show. We plan to have him back!
We Loved having Matt Baker at our Campus, he was such a great performer and always kept us entertained and laughing. We would love to have him back anytime at our campus for others to enjoy!

We had our annual "Dinner and A Show" for an elementary school. We were lucky to book Matt Baker as our Entertainer. Children, parents, and even grandparents were entertained. I watched the crowd laugh with hysteria and be completely engaged with Matt Baker. I would highly recommend everyone to book Matt Baker for ANY comedy act.
An entertaining comic and talented juggler in one high-energy package... Great all-ages / family show with lots of audience participation.
Matt rocked our shows (a children's show AND a benefit show) as emcee and really brought the evening together, kept the audience laughing and the evening running flawlessly. We'd book him again anytime.
Matt Baker is a wonderful performer. He's funny, kind to kids, and easy to work with. I'd hire him again anytime!
