"Joshua is an amazing performer. His show was funny, personal, engaging, mezmerizing and thoroughly magical! Every show was a sell out and that speaks volumes to his work as a performer. Word of mouth spread like wildfire with the basic refrain being 'You can't miss this show!'"

Magician and Mentalist for Averitt Center for the Arts

"WOW!!! Joshua was amazing, not only in his stage show but as an intelligent and kind person. He took great care with both children and adults alike. Great interaction with audiences….of all ages. Amazing stage presence. Good sense of humor, great voice, super timing. Just a fantastic show! What really impressed me was the way he came into our lobby after the show and talked with the fans, signed autographs, smiled for pictures and even "was amazed" by a child's magic trick. Even though the crowd was small, he performed like he was in front of a full house. We would love to have him back in the future."
