Nathan recently did a 45 minute show for my sister in laws circus themed baby shower. He was extremely professional and the show was fantastic! In addition to juggling, he added comedy, audience participation and other sideshow acts! The show was amazing and exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend Nathan the Juggler for any of your events!!
Circus Entertainment, Juggler
Nathan arrived early which was good. He was not under the tent and it was windy. The crowd was not very engaging and I think he had a difficult time with that? He was pleasant and gave us a discount as a small non profit serving cancer patients.
Nathan did an amazing job and his performance was a perfect fit for our Sideshow event.
Circus Entertainment, Juggler
Nathan the juggler was an excellent experience for my sons graduation party. We had a wide range of ages (young kids to grandparents) that were in attendance. The performance was a lot of fun to watch! This was our first time using a service like this and Nathan was very helpful and accommodating to what our 'vision' was (fire!). He was quick to respond to any questions we had before and after booking. You can tell he enjoys what he does and kept the crowd excited and the energy levels high! We had a lot of fun watching them perform. Nathan and Gary (his assistant) were awesome to work with. I'd highly recommend :D
Nathan performed in 90 degree heat for 2 hours. Very talented, and engaged audience very well. A good hire for our audience.
