Introduction: Time after time, I am told that the magical entertainment I provide is the HIGHLIGHT of the event. Jerry Farber recently said, "Paul, we've had other magicians, but you are one-of-a-kind! You really know how to entertain with your magic!" I am a Two-Time Winner of the Greater Atlanta Magician of the Year. I was a Winner in the Close-Up Magic Competitions of the South Carolina Assn of Magicians, the Atlanta Harvest of Magic, the International Battle of Magicians and the South Eastern Assn of Magicians. If you want great entertainment, lots of fun and amazing magic, look no further than "Magic & Mirth with Paul Sponaugle"! I love entertaining people. I am paid by the number of smiles and laughs I see and hear in the audience. Magic affords me an opportunity to entertain people and give them something memorable to take with them.

It was my second attempt to hire Paul for one of our kids parties and yiey, how lucky we got this time having him entertaining everyone at our 7y twins party this year! It was an amazing hour of fun, joy and tons of laughter from kids and their parents as well! A month later but everyone still talking about the best birthday party they’ve ever attended to, thanks to the awesome show full of magic and fun. Paul was extremely professional during our communication prior to the event, extremely prompt and responsive to all my special requests. I can’t recommend him enough, literally one of the best professionals I ever worked with!

We hired Paul aka “Merlindo” to perform a show for our son’s 7th birthday. He was entertaining both for the kids and grownups, alike! Our guests told me they loved the show. Paul has a talent for captivating his entire audience. Paul was very easy to work with, responsive, and pleasant.

Best mommy decision ever! Paul was responsive, fun, and easy going in a large crowd of about fifty or more on a Friday night, with kids of all ages and their parents tuning into his show. He was great at including a lot of the children during his magic tricks, too. As the party host, Paul took the entertainment out of my hands and created lots of smiles, relieving so much pressure off my shoulders.

Details: Birthday party • Close up magic show • 11 - 20 guests • 7 - 10 years old • 11 - 14 years old • 4 - 6 years old • Private residence (outdoors)

Paul did a great job entertaining kids and adults at my son's 8th birthday party! He saved the day when we needed last minute entertainment due to weather and moving the party indoors. He was engaging, funny, and an overall great time! Also, he was responsive, friendly, and professional. We enjoyed working with him! What a wonderful, last-minute find!
