Nothing short of amazing!!!

My daughter had her heart set on having an Austin Powers theme B-Day, and having Richard provide his look-alike talent, was nothing short of uncanny amazement! My daughter was over the moon especially after he sung to her. Richard is not only extremely talented, but also professional (kindly modified to keep G-rated, upon my request) and easy to work with. Cannot praise enough and highly recommend!!!

My boss was genuinely surprised and happy

Richard is the best Austin! I asked him to crash my virtu team meeting at work to surprise my boss (who is a huge austin powers fan) for his birthday, and My boss was thoroughly surprised and impressed (I also got rave reviews from the rest of the team since they thought it was so fun!). Richard made the whole team laugh, sang a song to the birthday boy, led us through a dance routine for the theme song (which really got everyone engaged), and had everyone sing happy birthday together! I asked him to join for 10 minutes and he was super punctual and action-packed during that time. Richard was also great in the planning stages and was easily accessible for any questions and very flexible (as I tried to coordinate multiple parties for this surprise virtual event). I highly recommend! Thanks Austin!

The BEST Austin!!!

We booked Richard to circulate the welcome cocktail party for our wedding weekend. We could not have been happier with his performance. He stole the show!!! He was absolutely hilarious. He is also a super nice guy, and was professional and super responsive/available throughout the process. BOOK HIM IMMEDIATELY--you will not regret it. PS. He is also an ordained minister. :D

International Man of Mystery!

I saw him in Long Beach at a Backyard Wrestling concert and he was incredible. Super fun, friendly and a total pro. This was an incredibly unstructured event which required some quick thinking and improvisation, and he not only rose to the occasion, but exceeded expectations to make the night absolutely unforgettable.

Such a wonderful time!!

Richard was the best! He made the process incredibly easy and was such a pleasure to work with. Our birthday boy was so excited to meet the real Austin Powers haha. Everyone was so excited and spoke about how great he was the next day. We danced, laughed, and had a great time. He came prepared and made the night memorable. Thank you!!!
