I hired Alan for my 50th birthday party and am so glad that I did! He engaged with my guests by doing close-up magic that left us all wondering, how did he do it?? Alan is very charismatic and a good story teller. Plus, he did his homework by learning about our guests in advance to wow them all the more. After going from table-to-table with his tricks, he performed a personalized show in front of the whole party that left us with great memories and some keepsakes. I highly recommend Alan Leeds!

Mike was a wonderful addition to our company's holiday party. We weren't able to provide a stage for a large performance, but Mike made sure to walk around to all the parties. It was very heartening to see people recording their friends and families while Mike performed for them. He was very personable and entertaining!
