Mark is a fabulous entertainer and excellent magician. His show was fun, energetic and full of surprises. He performed at a picnic for mostly older, adult volunteers. I've had many people say that was one of the best picnics yet. His magic is a mix of "oh yeah, we know that" but with surprising, unexpected twists. He was also very personable before and after the show. Great to work with!

I cannot tell you enough how happy I am that I hired Mark for my daughters 5th birthday party. The temperature outside was a humid 92 degrees at 10 AM. and we had early guest arrive to the party with a list of demands to make themselves feel at home (who does that?). Mark also arrived early and expected little to no maintenance for set up and he was more than flexible with the room he needed to set up his props for the "stage show". When the party did not start on time Mark kindly asked who his target audience was and then got right to work. He probably did not know just how helpful it was to have all of the kids sitting in one area and having them all engaged in an activity. What more could one ask for while trying to set up??? I was so happy! Even more, he caught the attention of the lingering parents too! Well, 1 hour into the start of our party food was finally ready. We migrated everyone outside of the house for food and a magic show. The amount of time it took to finish serving food became an-ordeal too considering I only hired Mark for two hours and by the time everyone was finished getting their plates and ready to start the show we had only 26 minutes left until the party was scheduled to be over! Mark did not seem to mind and he explained that as a professional he agreed to see his performance from beginning to end and if we went over our time he still felt that it was not only important but right to finish his craft. You do not meet many people who want to do good business these days and I again felt confident that things were O.K! The heat outside was too much and our tent ended up blowing away into the neighbors yard so, we moved the party back inside to my now very messy living room and kitchen area. Our party guest filled the room. We had one fan to circulate the air of the A/C unit and still, it was hot. But when I looked around I saw smiles on everyone's face and after the party a few friends stayed late to talk about how great of a show Mark put on. Overall I could not have made a wiser choice when I decided to hire Mark.

Mark performed his magic at my father's 80th birthday party and he was a huge hit with all the guests aged 8 to 80. He delivered an amazing, professional and super fun show. He accommodated our schedule and made our event more memorable. It is unfortunate that the Thumbtack rating system only goes to 5 because Mark definitely is a 10+.
