July 1, 20146-Year Old Birthday Party - Huge Success !!!
We booked Paul for our daughter's 6th birthday party in Rochester. First off, he's a consummate professional. He arrived early to the party, which was a relief. His show is absolutely perfect. He had two audiences completely engaged for a full hour. One audience was ~20 six year olds and the other was a dozen adults. Both were completely transfixed. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend Paul for anyone's party or event. He can cater to any age/audience and is a total professional.

February 11, 2014Clumsy was great!!!!
Paul, aka Clumsy, was fantastic! All the kids, as well as the adults in attendance, loved Paul's act. He was funny, engaging, and did some very cool magic tricks. He kept about 20 kids ages 5-8 laughing non-stop and totally engaged in what Paul was doing for an hour! Highly recommended!!!

January 16, 2014Corportate Party Success!
We wanted an entertainer that could keep the kids quiet when we had our speeches and awards, Paul didn't do this. He had kids laughing, interacting with him, shouting back answers and mesmerizing them with his magic. More importantly the kids were having a great time. We could hear them from the other room, and everyone had peace and comfort knowing that their kids were having a great time. It was the talk of the next day. We wouldn't of wanted it any other way.
Paul did a great job with the kids, and was very professional in communication with me, setup was easy and painless even while 50 kids were running around.
Overall we were extremely happy with Paul, and would recommend Paul for any event.

What to expect
Sound sytem and Lighting are used where required. I am 100% self contained.
My Family stage performance is extremely fast paced, it involves magic to music in the beginning, followed by slapstick comedy. Audience participation follows when a number of children come and help with various props. The ever loved unicycle routine comes next, and boy does that get the kids excited and shouting at me!! Where do 5 year old's learn how to ride unicycles anyway ??? Juggling is added just to show off a few great tricks.
The Finale of the performance is when I take a child from the audience and using the theme from Disney Aladdin I make the child Float about 3 feet in the air.
The Teen - Adult Performance
This is also a full variety show, I usually perform as Paul Antonio, wearing slightly different stage wear, I perform a number of stunts including completely mind boggling magic, various comedy routines, a straight jacket escape and of course my famous unicycle and juggling routine. This act is geared towards older and mature audiences however the humor is still 100% good Clean Fun.
Walkabout Entertainment
This is used for larger events and festivals, I bring my stilts which puts me high over the crowd and can be seen from a distance, I also incorporate juggling various items and can offer unicycling and fire juggling / fire eating where required (fire extinguisher is brought and an area is usually roped off for additional safety).
I am fully insured but don't panic no claims to date!
