This was amazing

We had James over to perform for a bachelor party. He understood his audience and was one of the top experiences of our trip. We especially liked the dangerous acts which included FIRE. Thankfully the groom survived THE CHAIR OF THE DEATH. James is a great performer and even better person. 10/10 would recommend for all parties.

Over 1,000,000 People Entertained
Over 100,000 hours of juggling practice
Over 10,000 hours on stage
Thousands of students taught to Juggle
Dozens of Television Appearances
One thing that matters-
putting on the best possible show,
everytime.

Testimonials

Thank you so much for your outstanding performance at our Junior Senior prom. The kids loved your strolling from table to table and giving them a chance to get to you before the main performance. The show itself was absolutely fabulous! Juggling the sports equipment was a big hit and of course the blacklight show left them breathless. We were pleased with your treatment both professionally and personally.

– Christa Schroeder Teacher/ Prom Coordinator

I was very pleased with the hire of James as was my staff…He exceeded our expectations.

– Harmony Parisi, Team Leader

Dear Mr. Reid, I would like to take a moment to tell you how very much our children and staff enjoyed your show! Since we have such a diversity of ages at our school (preschool – middle school), I was concerned that you would have a hard time keeping the attention of all 300 students for a whole hour. But as I looked on, clearly all ages were totally immersed in the performance for the duration! You are a talented entertainer, and you put on a captivating show that we look forward to seeing again in the future. Thank you again for an entertaining morning! We will definitely be recommending you to others looking for such entertainment!

– Pat Freeman, Director
