David was absolutely the BEST! His performance was EXACTLY as we envisioned and wanted and he nailed everything about it. As event planner, he made my life so easy because he was always prompt with his communications, ultra-professional, offered great suggestions to help us improve the event and more. He works so well in our current Zoom environment. If you want your event to be world-class, hire David Born - you will be thankful just as I am.

"Robin Williams" did a great job at my VIP event last week. The guests loved him and he definitely made it memorable!
Photos from this event
He is absolutely amazing!!! If you're looking for someone to knock on your loved ones door as a surprise and make them laugh soooo much, then David is your guy! He knocked on my sisters door and gave her a private 15 minute comedy show plus sang the genie song from Aladdin! He had my sister laughing so hard! It definitely went down as the absolute best birthday surprise in the history of birthdays for our family!!! My sister was so confused at first because she honestly thought Robin Williams was at her door! Im definitely going to hire him again for some more surprises in the family!!!

David has this Robin Williams impression on point!! I had an event called "Carnival of Lost Souls" and I hired him just in the wake of the whole passing of Williams. My guests were shocked and awed when he came on stage. He has all the mannerisms and joke and was truly entertaining! He did a 30 minute show and then did meet and greet with everyone. He was highly interactive with my guests and he came on time and set-up all his stuff with my DJ and surprised everyone. He is a must if you are looking for fun entertainment! Thank you so much David!!!

I hired David for my husbands 50th birthday party. David was awesome, awesome, awesome. There are just no other words.
Here it is two years later and everyone is still talking about him. He is best next to the real thing, even better.
I loved him. He never went out of character from the time he got out of the car till he left...
I am going to book him again for my Christmas party in 2011, hopefully...

Stand-Up: a dead-pan routine of Robin with Classics and Original Material mixed in, No cussing..I do the clean..Innuendo Stuff. My sets are Rocking! The comedy is fast with a fun, spicy edge. Ages 21-60.
Master of Ceremonies: As a Professional Speaker & Event M.C. I have dignity and respect for my clients and use appropriate comedy. I use an audio-Prompter to help with long passages and have been Emcee for over 100 live events.
