Director, Kirby Theater Performance
Magician and Mentalist for Manbites Dog Theater

"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, Concert Series
Magician and Mentalist for Saratoga Arts

"Joshua drew standing room only crowds for each of his three fabulous acts and audience members who had chosen to stand in line for an hour to see him said it was all worth the wait. Josh was gracious and easy to work with in advance of the performances and even agreed to tailor one of his shows to help a young man make a surprise proposal to his girlfriend, which was amazing and touching to watch- truly the definition of "magic". Certainly we will love to have this performer back and in a bigger venu"

Coordinator, First Night Saratoga
