Booked for Birthday party

Ifty was brilliant! I booked him for my husbands suprise 40th bday party. We had lots of people of different ages, he worked the crowd really well and people loved it. It was a great icebreaker as not everyone knew each other and many of the guests were extremely impressed and thought it was such a fun idea to have a magician at the party. Magicians are clearly not just for kids as the adults were loving it!

Booked for Birthday party

The Impossible Mr Goodwin was excellent with our guests. He was prompt, friendly and mingled around our party brilliantly. I had a lot of feedback to say that having him there was a really great idea. He certainly amazed a few and completely confused others (in a Magic-Circle kind of way). I would highly recommend his services, he was great fun - thank you.

Booked for Celebration

Well done Chris, what a fantastic act you are, perfect for our relaxed friends and family dinner party night, thank you so much. I took a bit of stick from the teenagers when I said I had a magician coming during dinner... they thought they were too old to see a rabbit coming out of a hat.....! now they can't stop talking about you or comprehend how you did what you did. It all happened right in-front of their eyes and so lovely to hear their reaction as you made magic happen....... The adults were equally stunned, well done and thanks again..
