"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."

Program Coordinator, Baker Arts Center

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."
