Magician and Mentalist in Durham, NC

"Joshua consistently sells out every seat when he performs here, bringing in our regular patrons as well as his ever-growing fanbase. His performances deftly blend the theater of magic with the magic of theater. Audiences buzz about what they've seen long after Josh's astonishing shows are over."

Manager, Manbites Dog Theater

Inspiring Speaker in Cary, NC

"Derrick gave an excellent performance. The crowd seemed to really enjoy him and we heard a lot of great things. He was very professional and a pleasure to work with."

Downtown Theater and Events Supervisor, Town of Cary

Magician and Mentalist in Elon, NC

"We had a great evening in the theatre with Joshua. The audience was enthused and thoroughly enjoyed the performance. They particular enjoyed the audience participation portions of the show. The theatre was mostly full with members ranging in age from 8 to 88. Joshua was outstanding to work with and everyone including staff and crew enjoyed the experience. Everything was 5 star- performance, communication, audience -- everything."

Executive Director, Cultural and Special Programs, Elon University

Comedian in Wadesboro, NC

"Our audience was so thrilled with Matt, that they have asked me to bring him back. He is funny, musical and keeps the audience involved throughout the entire show. Even our ushers were dancing in the back of the theater. I definitely intend to have him back whenever our schedules will let us. Nice clean fun and jokes - no curse words, something for the entire family to spend the evening. He arrived just when he said he would so that our tech could go over everything with him. He was a delight."

Theater Committee Chair, Ansonia Theatre

Magician and Mentalist in Spokane, WA

"Joshua was an amazing addition to our New Year's Eve program! We have had nothing but rave reviews of his performance, and many inquiries if he will be returning next year. He was a joy to work with from start to finish, as he truly brought his A game to the table. I especially appreciated him coming with me at 7AM to do a last minute TV interview when I woke him up at 6:40. He really was team a player every step of the way. I would highly recommend Joshua to anyone looking for the real deal."

Executive Director, First Night Spokane

Clean Comedian in Cary, NC

"Wow! Larry Weaver really delivered! We had our very first clean comedy night and were so pleased to have over 200 people in attendance. The audience was treated to a family-friendly night of laughs. Larry brought local color, humor of the South and a general good time to the stage. He was so professional - and best of all funny!"

"Entertaining and professional on-stage and a joy to work with backstage. Joshua's performance was SOLD OUT here at the Renaissance Centre and the crowd loved the show. Want to get that "younger audience" that everyone is seeking? Book Joshua. The house was filled with children, their parents and a few grandparents."

"Joshua was very entertaining and engaged the audience all the way through the show. After the show audience members thanked us for bringing him to the theater and I've since seen several of the attendees elsewhere and they all say how much fun they had. Joshua was very easy to work with and all aspects of the show went well. Thanks!"
