Gerry performed his magic act at our office Christmas party. The children (ages 3-9) were enthralled and the adults enjoyed his performance, too. Great elf costume.

He did an amazing job! All of the children there enjoyed him thoroughly. He definitely had all of the children engaged in what he was doing and left a great impression on the parents also. Would definitely recommend him to do another event for any children's party!

He did a great job. Even waited for more guests to arrive for me. He was the best and I wouldn’t have changed anything. The kids were all entertained for 30min.

Gerry the great is truly a professional. He took the time to contact me personally so we can both prepare for the kind of entertainment that I wanted for my child’s party. He laid out all of his plans & the program proper. I hired him for 45 minutes to do the magic show & entertainment while his wife Candace, do the face painting on one side of the room. There was never time wasted & the kids watching the show were all seated in front to pay their full attention to him. Even the adult guests were watching him do his thing. I have to pay an additional price for him to host the games & do more balloon twisting & the kids loved this. My other children are already asking for him on their next party. Try to contact Gerry the Great if you want a fun filled party & he will take care of the fun part.

I am a myrtle beach Area Performer specializing in family entertainment and I offer "Stress Free" performances. You can relax and enjoy your party knowing I'm a professional that can entertain your audience.
All of my shows are scripted and include music, puppets and lots of opportunities to make your guests feel like rockstars. I study children's age groups and modify my shows to what age group I'm in front of.
I believe that time as a family is in short supply and I work hard to get families together and connect at my shows.

I have full liability insurance, have been background checked, and am a member in good standing of the International Brotherhood Of Magicians, The Fellowship Of Christian Magician, and The International Jugglers Alliance.
My shows are all self inclusive with battery operated PA systems so no cords to trip over, and I have no set up requirements from a full stage show, to working in your back yard.

Influences & Inspiration
Silly Billy has been a great influence on me. He really teaches how to connect with children, and what makes them laugh at every age. His book "Totally Silly" is the bike for family entertainment and I reference it often.
Another influence is Allessandro Zanardi. He was an race car driver that I worked with at Chip Ganassi Racing. By watching Alex meet with all types of people, from movie stars to my own family and especially children, he treated them all the same way. He wasn't fake with them or any different when meeting a pop star to a kid who came up to him for an autograph. He really was a huge influence for me.
