We hired Sean for my 40th birthday, girls only party and he was amazing! Not easy to walk into a house full of twenty middle-ages women but Sean was an expert! He was funny, engaging and did some really cool tricks! We were to quite sure what to expect but he surpassed our expectations! So personable, his tricks involved some of our guests, kept us laughing and shocked us with his magic. Highly highly recommend! In fact, I had several friends mention they want to hire him for their own parties. Thank you Sean, you were the perfect entertainment for my 40th bash!

I had to find a magician that would be appropriate for my group of teenagers (14-18), and Sean took the time to custom make a performance to fit just that! He was awesome and engaging even over zoom! He really took our club, Heart of Passion, to the next level!!

This was a family birthday party for my husband. Sean did a great job including all ages. From my husband, our young grandsons, our adult granddaughter & her boy friend & our adult children. He was prompt, polite, gracious, funny & and a skilled magician! Will definitely call upon him whenever we need a magician & will recommend him to our family & friends. Thank you Sean for a great evening.

Sean Ridgeway was the epitome of professionalism and enthusiasm. His magic show was well done and his improvisation to fit our intimate group was well done. He is just as skilled a comedian as he is a magician. I would highly recommend him and if my office wants something like this next year for our party, he will by my choice. Thank you Sean!!!
