Wayne was just perfect for the cocktail party event for 137 people that we hosted. He kept everyone engaged and they really enjoyed his company. Wayne is engaging, and funny and his magic was great, some of us are still trying to figure out "how did he do that?" I wouldn't hesitate to have Wayne again for one of our events, hire him, you won't be disappointed.
