This is the second time we were able to book Mr. Niehaus for our event, and he was again able to keep the children entertained! They were all participating with him during the performance, and we had around 100 kids, so that should tell you what a great performer he is!! We highly recommend him for your event.

Mike Niehaus was wonderful!!! He showed up on time and was patient when we had to wait for more kids to show up for the party. He was friendly, funny and the children had a blast. Even the adults enjoyed the show too and i would recommend him to anyone needing a magician. I would book him again!!!

Mike is a great entertainer and have amazing ability to talk with all kids, get them engaged and listen to him. Every kid in the party enjoyed his presence and Mike was patient enough to wait for some kids to come. At the end of show he created balloons for all kids with various shapes and that was phenomenal. Mike- thanks for making by son's 1st B'day memorable to all of my friends. You are brilliant and having amazing abaility to connect with children.

We hired Mike to do a birthday party for our son who was turning 7, and he was great! He was very good with the kids and did a great job of tailoring the show to them. They were laughing and smiling the entire time! He kept everyone involved in the show! Young and old, we all enjoyed his performance! I would recommend Mike to anyone looking for a great entertainment.

Mike stuck around (in the rain)after his show for additional balloon making and entertainment for the kids, very impressive!

You did an outstanding job last night. The kids and adults loved your performance. Many people are still wondering how you did some of those tricks. Thank you of making our Ice Cream Social a success!

We attended your performance last Friday with the Special Olympians group and loved the show. You were at once at ease with our "kids" and made us all laugh...........athletes and parents alike...Thank you.

Mike performed at our son's fifth birthday party and was a huge hit among the children as well as the adults. We are still talking about his rope trick. Mike really kept the crowd engaged and that's a tough job with a group of young kids. I appreciated his energy and his interaction with the children. He made everyone an active part of the magic acts and really made the birthday boy feel special. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone looking to entertain a house full of people. Thank you Mike!!!

His entertainment was fabulous for my son's 4 year old birthday party. The kids laughed ALOT and the adults too! Mike was great & I would highly recommend having him entertain at a child's party.

Mike Niehaus was great with keeping the children's attention, and was very patient and accomadating when there was a very long line for the balloon art. He did not leave until all the children had a balloon. I would highly recommend him for any event!

Mike Niehaus exceeded all expectations. Our committee was delighted with the quality of his scheduled performances, but we were most impressed when he continued to entertain our guests beyond his time slot, since another performer failed to show up. Mike didn't wait to be asked .... he just jumped right in and kept our guests happy. We felt he was definitely a part of our team! Mike always drew a crowd and is versatile in his repertoire. We will definitely be hiring him again!
