Very well received by the attendees of our annual event

We normally book comedians for out event but this year we used LeLando form his strolling/close-up magic. The attendees liked the close up personal interaction with the performer and non offensive act. Highly recommend for others looking for this type of entertainment.

Fun and Excellent experience

We hired Lenado for balloon twisting and very happy with the experience. Lelando was fun, patient and engaging for all the kids at the party. He was on time to set up his stuff ready to make some fun wild animals for the kid. He makes the process engaging for the kids and asks them in detail for what they want and makes effort to build the shape to their liking. The birthday boy was treated well and given an extra balloon animal at the end. We will hire him again for future events.

Mind blowing tricks for adults both sober and drunk

We hired Lelando for our cocktail hour, and he was a hit! Everyone is still raving about how fun it was to have someone come up and do magic for you, especially when convo got silent. One of my cousins wants to hire him for our next holiday party, his tricks were mind boggling, and his personality was electric. You're missing out if you don't hire him for your event!

Booking information

Price range: $200 and up

What to expect

Before we book your event, I will ask you plenty of questions, to be sure that I am the right entertainer for your event, and to be sure that I know exactly what you want. By the time your event arrives, you'll know exactly what to expect. Most importantly, I know that my job is not nearly as much about the magic of sleight-of-hand as it is the magic of helping your guests have the best time possible. And in the end, that's exactly what you can expect!

About

Lelando has been performing for audiences for the better part of five decades! His experiences include countless hours on and off the stage as an actor, musician, magician, balloon artist, and emcee! As such, he's a truly diverse entertainer and performer who blends these skills into an unforgettable experience.

Additional booking notes

If we are booking a stage show, please communicate with me about your venue and what items you already have on hand for Lighting, Sound, and Staging.

If the venue has its own sound system and an operator (sound tech), I'll need the ability to plug in a wireless mic system (XLR preferred, 1/4" capable) and an MP3 player (1/8" Stereo headphone-style plug).

If the venue cannot provide sound, I can bring my own small PA system, which will comfortably support an audience of up to ~100 people.

As noted elsewhere, for in-home (or other small venue) stage shows, I require a space approximately 10' wide and 6' deep. Your 'Stage' doesn't necessarily have to be a real stage; it can be one end of your living room or patio, and I can bring my own curtain backdrop if needed. If you are uncertain, contact me to discuss the area (sending photos of the space will help, too), so we can make sure I'm prepared with a show that will work in your space!

For Balloon Twisting, I need a space approximately 6-8' in diameter, with room for the kids to line up. If outdoors, please ensure shade/protection from rain or direct sun.

Setup requirements

When performing a stage show, I don't actually require a real stage, per se. If your event is in the home or office, it could be as simple as being one end of a room.
