Amazing! Everyone is still raving about your performance and costumes.
My wife and I decided to step a little outside the box and have a mime perform at our wedding reception/cocktail hour. Although, the first thought of a mime seems a little off, Pearl's performance was nothing but a perfect match for our reception location (Museum) and guests. Pearl's elegance and professional take is truly first class. We met a few months prior to our big day to discuss ideas of costumes, the type of mime & characters she would develop, and how we wanted her to interact with our guests. We had no idea how rich, diverse, and colorful the art of "miming" was until we met with NY Pearl the Mime. Our reception was held in a Museum which Pearl just naturally adapted to. The idea was to help "break the ice" and to whimsically coax our guests with story and jest - which Pearl played to perfection. In short, we cannot imagine our reception without NY Pearl the Mime. She did not 1, but 3 amazing costume and characters portrayals (a beautiful but sassy flapper girl, a curious and inquisitive expedition explorer complete with monocle and Safari hat, and a throwback baseball player - think Disney's 1942 "How to play baseball" with Goofy). Everyone was blown away and had a fantastic time. Laughs and joy were abound from Pearl's stellar performance at our wedding! It's all that timeless "poke and fun" she is so incredible at - you know, like stealing someone's seat, overly acting out to be in love with my Grandfather, dramatically lip syncing to "That's Amore - Dean Martin" - with my father-in-law. I don't care what credit card you have - THAT'S PRICELESS! If I'm not mistaken, Pearl's little trademark cut-out hearts were also shared with our guests. Did also mention Pearl gave us more acting time on the house? Pearl, you made the night truly unforgettable. Everyone is still talking about how gorgeous and talented you are. We have the pictures and video to prove it!
Love,
Michele & Jon

My husband and I hired Pearl for our son's fourth birthday party after finding her on the internet and speaking with her by phone. She agreed to integrate our vision and wishes and came through with her word. Our guests were pleasantly surprised to find that the seemingly immovable human statue came alive! She was very attentive to our son and played with our guests, both children and adults using nonverbal gestures and imaginative props. Most notable was that she was able to distinguish between those guests that wished to engage with her and those that preferred not. She played with my son like an imaginative child. Because she never broke character, we felt we had been visited by a special, magical guest at our party. I recommend Pearl without ant reservations because she gave us just what we had asked.
We hired Pearl for our son's 2nd Birthday party which was held in Long Island. It was a very special occasion as family and friends gathered from every NYC borough to meet our son for the first time. We wanted something different and classy, we wanted someone that would entertain both kids of different ages as well as adults and all I can say is that she was AMAZING. She travelled quite far and even arrived early to meet with us first and stayed to the end to entertain the kids which was so much more than we expected. Everyone at the party were so impressed as she performed and entertained with such an amazing style and her costumes were gorgeous. The kids were mesmerized and we still talk about that wonderful day. Thanks Pearl the Mime for the priceless memories!
We hired NY Pearl the Mime to greet and interact with our Chamber of Commerce guests at our Annual Meeting. She was on-time and prepared when she arrived at our event. She interacted with guests and provided entertainment that made the evening a stand-out event and our members feel special.
New York Pearl the Mime was a pleasure to work with and interacted well as a team member with other performers that we had working that evening. Her rates were very reasonable.
We would definitely rehire NY Pearl the Mime if the opportunity arose.
I have worked with Pearl for over 7 years now on different events, parties and such and would recommend no one higher than she. We have hired her for corporate events, cocktail parties, and even children's birthday parties and she has always delivered a flawless performance and a way into the hearts of everyone in attendance.
Pearl has become a part of my family and I cannot say enough great things about her.
I had the lovely opportunity to walk with NYC's finest Pearl through central park. Her beauty meshed perfectly with that of the park. She helped guide me to some points of interest within the park, however the greatest attraction in central park that day was the lovely lady showing me the points of interest.
I have attended performances of NY Pearl The Mime in public performance spaces in New York City. She has the unique ability of literally stopping a busy crowd in its tracks through expert miming that addresses the full range of human emotions.
