Thank you for inviting me to celebrate with Ellie and all her friends. What a perfect day to host this at the park, especially with all the rain we've been having lately. I'm glad everyone had so much with the Tiger, balloons, face painting, and magic. Looking forward to working with you again.

He was able to capture the kids’ attention and balloon twisting fit the variable age ranges. This was a “block party” so he worked the crowd!
Thank you!

He was on time, full of energy. He let all the kids feel as if they were part of the show. He even had the parents pulled into watching the show. He made a special Dragon balloon for my son. I feel he went above and beyond.

Thank you, Tammy. We appreciate you following up with us and sharing your review. The magician had a great time bringing his magic show to your event in Indiana and wearing a new wizard outfit as well. All the kids were engaging to make it a success for your son. We look forward to working with you again to bring more creative joy into your events.

This was my second year booking with Marsh-Mallo. This year, we were lucky enough to book the Bat Hero. The kids loved every second of his performance, from his entrance to his exit. The actor who played Bat Hero was so friendly and professional, truly the highlight of the party. I would recommend booking with Marsh-Mallo for any event where entertainment is needed.

The Marsh-Mallo superhero characters that we contracted for were awesome! Superman and Wonder Woman were a huge hit with their multi-talented skills of superhero training, balloon making and face painting. It was perfect.
