Thanks Cole!
I hired Watkins for a holiday event earlier this month and he absolutely blew everyone away. He performed close-up mind reading for most of the night and then did a short performance in front of everyone. I'm STILL getting text messages from clients and employees raving about his performances. He is a phenomenal mentalist and very easy to work with. I highly recommend him as an engaging addition to pretty much any event.

We hired Watkins for a "winter warmer" cocktail party at our home with about 30 guests. We didn't tell anyone he was coming and asked him to just start roaming. Everyone was so taken aback - even our most skeptical friends - and they're still talking about his tricks days later.

Watkins performed a group show for our company holiday party. He was highly professional, and kept our group of 20- and 30- year-olds entertained from beginning to end!

Watkins literally made our night. I hired him for a group of 10 people for a small birthday party and we were beyond impressed. I can't begin to explain how fantastic he was, even the sceptics were impressed. We are all still talking about how awesome he was: dynamic, fun, personal, and memorable. You won't regret booking him.

It all started back in October of 2018 when was on a midnight tour in Greenwood Cemetery is where I met Watkins. Immediately he blow we away with your ability to perform his craft. So after the show, I ask for his card and the rest is History.
Fast forward to May 11, 2019 is where I met Watkins again... this time it was at my Surprise 50th Birthday Party. I was very surprise to see him and once again he wowed me and others that were in attendance.
Watkins.. you are off the charts amazing.... I have never experienced anything like this.... Keep up the amazing work you do... most definitely impressive.

I needed some entertainment for my dinner and wasn't really sure about anyone, or any type of entertainment at all. A friend of mine said he once saw a show by this guy Watkins, and from what he remembers, it was pretty good, so I gave him a call. Luckily, he was available on my day, so we booked. This guy showed up to the event very well dressed, extremely professional looking, and he engaged with my crowd before the dinner started. He sat patiently through all of my speeches and when his turn came, he completely took over the room. He had some guys, that never pay attention to anything, sitting quietly and watching him do his thing. He put on an amazing show! I have no idea how any of his mind tricks work, but they are great to watch. Iff your thinking of bringing this Watkins mentalist to your event, take it from me, you will not be let down. He was worth every penny and puts on a great show!

Everyone had an awesome evening. Watkins got children and adults involved. I would highly recommend to use him for your events.

We had a surprise birthday party for my 13 year old son with friends and family, ages 6-75; about twenty people in total. Apart from his amazing mentalist feats, Watkins was remarkably engaging with all ages. We were all blown away by his “tricks”. Truly amazed at how he was able to accomplish them. I can’t wait for my next holiday party at work. Watkins will blow their minds. Not only a great mentalist, but a super nice guy!

Watkins was simply awesome!!! He really captured and amazed our guests with his tricks, a variety of them. He walked around in the crowd and showed different tricks including writing down the name of the person you were thinking about, drawing on paper exactly what you were drawing out of his sight, producing a written note about a word that you just thought of! I can go on and on and on. Our guests just could not believe what he was able to do by reading your mind. I would strongly recommend Watkins without reservation for any event.

My team and I enjoyed a spellbinding performance from Watkins Mentalism.
Below are a couple of comments made by my team members after the show:
"The mentalist was great have him back"
"Agreed the Mentalist was rad!"
"He's a witch! How'd he do that?! That was awesome!"
Needless to say we had an extremely good time and would love to have Watkins come back and impress us even more.
Thanks Watkins Mentalism!

My husband and I hired Watkins for our 11 year old daughter's birthday party. He was professional and extremely entertaining.
