Excellent is an understatement. Paul was beyond extraordinary. We lucked out as he was traveling through our city, and could not be happier with the show he put on for our intimate event! More than just a mentalist, he was an exceptional entertainer, who kept us laughing, yet, also on the edge of our seats, the entire set. Anyone who is able to book him should jump at the opportunity!

Paul Draper was the emcee, auctioneer and entertainer at our annual fundraising event. He was 100% professional from our first phone call through the events end. Paul arrived on time, kept the room engaged and entertained the entire time and was effective in helping us maximize the donations that we received. If you need a great entertainer who can do all these things for you, Paul Draper is the one to call!

My employee's really enjoyed his performance. They said that he was very entertaining as well as mind-boggling. They could not figure out how he is was doing it.

Paul is a true professional and exceeded my expectations. He did multiple events for for us and was always on time, in a good mood, and ready to put on a top notch event. Great performer and an even better person.

I hired Paul for the 20th Anniversary Celebration for the Paralegal Division of the Utah State Bar. He was very professional and engaging. His roaming table act was a huge hit with our guests! I am very pleased and would hire him again.
