Entertaining, professional, fun!

So glad I booked the Southern Scoundrel to add some magical delight to a very special double-surprise birthday/graduation party. In addition to Edmond performing card tricks that garnered lots of 'oohs, ahhs, and how did he do thats,' he was extremely easy to communicate with. He was professional and punctual, which I really appreciated in the midst of organizing the many moving parts that go into pulling off a surprise party. Edmund said that he typically performs for adults, but he had no problem keeping our crowd of 2 to 82-year-olds equally engaged. In fact, our guest's 9-year-old left saying he wanted to go to magic camp.

I also appreciated Edmond asking specific questions about our guests so he could prepare some tricks in advance. That kind of thoughtfulness means a lot.

If you're looking for someone to add the magic touch to your event, book the Southern Scoundrel -- you won't be disappointed!

Great Time for our Students

Edmund came to campus for a celebration of changing our name from college to Piedmont University. He arrived early and stayed late entertaining our students. He did a wonderful job and the students had a lot of fun with him. Highly recommend for your nest event!
