Is he good? Must be. Now we offer JIM & the WOODEN STARS at prices you just won't believe.
Jim is a family entertainer(he knows one dirty joke and it ain't even funny). Call for your next child's party, church event or any get together.
Jim and Friends was so entertaining. All the kids really had a good time! Jim is such a nice person and great at what he does.
Jim performed at an outdoor event in Dalton GA where the temps hit 100 degrees. As is usual in the south the humidity was also high. Jim did not let this affect his performance at all, and he just rolled with it. He was amazing, hilarious, magical and a real hoot. Our event included children of all ages as well as adults. Everyone was entertained, the young one sitting on the floor gazing up at him and the adult kids who howled with laughter. The children were all fascinated by the puppets ( Jims Friends) I think the rabbit was a favorite with them.
Jim did a great job entertaining our group!!
He was wonderful with the kids, and looks like a real Santa. Would book him again.
Jim did am amazing job with the kids and adults at our party! We couldn't be happier with how it went! I highly recommend him!
Response from Jim & Friends:
I did not have to do anything. This family is at the top of the world.
Jim was so awesome with the kids and adults at our Christmas party! He truly made it a memorable party!
I highly recommend him!
Jim was a perfect santa. He was energetic and kind and just everything you would want and hope to have in a santa! Look forward to working with him in the future.
Do yourself a favor and hire him!
Jim did a great job as Santa for our annual Christmas Tree Lighting at Lee University. We would definitely use him again. Thanks, Jim!
Mr Jim was AMAZING! He came for our annual cub scout welcome back party. The kids ate him up. They laughed so hard and so loud. Even the parents had belly laughs. I can not wait to book him again. Bless you Mr Jim!
Response from Jim & Friends:
They were great. So glad they called me. The host was outstanding. I can't wait to get to go back, and see their wonderful faces again.
Thanks
Jim

All of our performances are put together for you. We do not use a set show. Customers sometime ask for a video of our program, With every show geared to the costumer any videos would be useless as all are different.
All church performances are a blessing to us, it's our favorite. We have done the circle, meaning we have performed in front of crowds of over 10,000 and crowds of 2. We give the crowd of 2 the same show as 10,000. We have in the past opened for many major stars and even 2 major TV shows. What do we love the most? A performance for YOU. You get the top show for the least price.
