24th bday

For my 24th birthday, I had a “kid themed” bday and hired Richard after he preformed at my work. He was awesome and was definitely the highlight of my birthday! Everyone had a great time and loved it! Recommend for kids of all ages!!

Highly Recommend for All Events

Richard was amazing for the Bachelorette party I threw for my best friend getting married! He worked with me to cater the show for the bride’s wild side with some risqué elements while keeping it professional and engaging for the bridesmaids’ tame side. He was responsive, timely, and had amazing magic tricks that left us stunned. I would highly recommend for any group as he can work with your specific needs and of course another bachelorette party if anyone is looking for a clean alternative to strippers.

Very professional, highly recommend!

We hired Rich to do a birthday party for our 5 year old son and about 10 of his friends...every kid there had their eyes glued to him. They were all laughing, participating in the show, and legitimately having a great time.
I work in the public school system and I can tell you from experience that getting AND maintaining a dozen or so Kindergarten-aged kids' attention for 30 minutes is right next to turning water into wine. Rich was making kids laugh, having them participate in the show, answering questions, and maintaining control all throughout the act without skipping a beat.
If you're looking for a professional kid's party magician that will surely entertain his audience I highly recommend this guy.
