If you are looking for a sign to book with Don Marlette, this is it! He was absolutely amazing. He showed up a few minutes early to get prepared, was very personable, and provided a clean mentalism show with some comedy sprinkled in. My friends, family, and I all thoroughly enjoyed his show. I highly, HIGHLY recommend him!

Hi Wendy,
What a fun night! Thank you so much for the amazing review. Performing for such a fantastic crowd in that beautiful theater (with a top-notch staff!) was an absolute joy. I'm thrilled to hear you all had a great time, and I can't wait to be back on that stage in the future!

The entire show can be performed completely surrounded, but an 8' x 10' "staging" area is a plus!

Good PA/sound system (if needed - if you do not have one, Don can provide one at no extra charge)
