Steve’s Entertainment Philosophy:

 

Thank you for entertaining at our office party – you were brilliant!. Your magic was outstanding, enjoyable and fun! You worked the audience involving everyone, and the sawing-in-half finale truly amazed us! It was uplifting magic and entertainment that left everyone smiling, just what we needed. Am happy to recommend you. Thanks again, Nicola.

To get the attention of a child is one thing, to keep it is something completely different but to truly captivate and inspire a group of children is magical. To say the party was fantastic and the kids are truly inspired, would be an understatement, many thanks Steve and look forward to the next time

Steve, I just wanted to share some feedback from my wedding ....The kids were absolutely amazed by your magic. How did you know the names of the kids pets, and where someone lived? They all think I primed you beforehand!. You certainly kept all the children entertained and apparently they have done nothing but talk about it ever since! Thanks so much for entertaining them so well, I'm only sorry I didn't get to see the show! Kind Regards, Gaye

Dear Steve, What can I say! All of the children had a really truly fantastic time watching your magic. They are still talking about it now so it has definitely made an impression! The rainbow teapot seems to have stumped them all and they are still giving me various ideas of how you made the water into rainbow colours. They loved your magical "silks" and how they appeared and disappeared before their eyes!. Thanks again for helping to make Caitlin’s day special (and sawing my husband in half !). Kind regards Ann.

I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for Charlie May’s birthday (as well as putting up with interfering mums and flying gazebo’s) I didn’t expect your magic to appeal so much to the adults too and them also standing watching ! The most important thing was that Charlie May was extremely happy, when I eventually got her into bed she said her favourite magic was the appearing butterflies (which I sadly missed!) I also should let you know that one of the mum’s has commented that her child has not stopped talking about you - I think the mother is tired of hearing about you - in the nicest possible way !!Thank you. Steve.

Thank you so much for your 2 hours of entertainment for the kids on Sunday, they all absolutely loved it and the adults were equally entertained! I know you took some grief from my nephew Charley, he is a tricky boy who has Aspergers Syndrome, and we do try to keep him under control, believe me he can be a lot worse!! Anyway you absolutely made the party and Josh has told all his friends at school he had the best magician ever - who can even cut people open!!!
You really do have a talent for it. Wishing you well,

Thank you so much, I have spoken to a number of people who said their children enjoyed you very much.I only popped into the function room 2 or 3 times, didn't feel I needed to venture in any more because all the children appeared to be enjoying themselves - they certainly didn't leave the room so I think that speaks volumes.
Considering how many children you were entertaining and the variation in ages you did a fantastic job. You did exactly what I hoped for - entertained the children so the adults were left alone to socialise. Thank you very much

Hi Steve. Thank you so much for a wonderful party yesterday for our group. It was spellbinding! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it and thank you so much for choosing me to be sawn in half, it was great. My daughter was envious and thought it really cool that her mum did it! So have gone up a notch there! It was lovely to meet you and once again thank you so much.

Thank you so much for George's party, he did really enjoy the show and all the children seemed to love the plate spinning at the beginning of the party, really nice feedback from his friends at school on Monday. Thank you again.

Steve has entertained children (and adults alike) at both our 2008 and 2009 annual Fetes in Horringer, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. He has proven a great attraction, providing a lot of involving fun and entertainment for the younger children and adults. We look forward to seeing Steve again.

Steve, thank you very much for your show at our daughter’s party yesterday - Ella thoroughly enjoyed her party and your magic show. The children were certainly quiet and calm during the show which gives an indication that you certainly had them captivated and ultimately that they enjoyed themselves. Thank you again and we wish you luck.

I would like to thank Steve for a wonderful show that he put on for my sons 5th Birthday party.
Steve arrived at the venue early to ensure he could set up prior to his appearance at the allotted time. When his act started he engaged the children with a warm, friendly and patient manner. The children as well as the adults were thoroughly entertained and enthralled by his array of magic tricks and illusion acts. Steve managed to have all the children involved at all times and made full efforts to ensure each child was able to be either helping him or being involved in certain activities which we felt was not only fair to all the children concerned but also amazingly efficient in keeping the children’s constant attention.
I would thoroughly recommend Steve to anyone seeking an hour or mores entertainment which is not only great value for money but hugely enjoyable for children of all ages!

Steve, Thanks for coming to Zoe's party. The children enjoyed the show and it was lovely that the weather was so good we could all be outside. They loved the 'action' illusions - the 'ghost' was a particular favourite, as was the 'water pump', the 'teapot', the 'hole in the paper' and the fan. They do believe! I thought the 'burning book' was great ! I think 45 mins of show with 15 mins plate spinning at the end worked well.
Zoe wanted to see a 'proper' magic show for her birthday. She and her friends have all said they enjoyed the show. You are the first entertainer we have ever booked and I think you were good value for money. I liked the card tricks on your website, too! We wish you well for the future,
