Booked for Birthday party

Ian did a performance at our 50th Birthday party. What a brilliant performance so funny and Ian made sure everyone was included with a mix of table mind reading and the hypnosis show. Ian is brilliantly funny and a first class entertainer who can manage with a small or large event. Everyone from the 78 year olds to the 2 year old were mesmorised...would highly recommend Ian's show!!!
