Comedian in Raleigh, NC

"John was great - funny and a pleasure to work with."

Manager, Holly Springs Cultural Center

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 Fuquay-Varina, NC

"Joshua’s performance Life is Magic was highly entertaining. Joshua was personable, funny, and the audience loved the interaction with him and the magic."

Arts Center Director, Town of Fuquay-Varina

Magician and Mentalist in Statesboro, GA

"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."

Deputy Director, Averitt Center for the Arts
