John Holt

We had a really good night with John. He had a really good banter with our audience, and really had us rocking in the aisles. There were many ladies crying with laughter. His magic tricks were really good, and we were all left thinking 'how did you do that!' We are recommending him on to other parties and ran out of his business cards in a couple of minutes. I think it's safe to say that a good night was had by all!

"I booked John for my husband's surprise 40th birthday party. We had it in a private bar so John did close up card tricks to groups of 2-6 people at a time. He stayed with us for an hour and gradually made his way around everyone. He was brilliant...and funny. His tricks were really good and all I could hear was people saying ""no way"" and ""wow how did you do that!"" I'm really pleased I booked him now as it was a nice way of breaking up the evening and everyone said how impressed they were. My husband said he would definitely recommend him as well and who knows we may even book him again in the future too. Thanks also to Poptop for a really efficient service which made things really easy to book and choose the right person for the event. GB"

"I would totally recommend John Holt. I booked him for my mother in-law's 70th birthday which I hosted at my house. I wanted him to help get the party going and also to make it really memorable - and he did! First of all he turned up early which was useful, it allowed him to prepare and see the house layout and have a chat with us as hosts before most of the party (including the birthday girl) landed. There were about 25 people at the party and John made sure that he saw everyone at least once, He had lots of tricks - making limes appear and re-appear, as well as lots of different funny card tricks. The best thing was that he had good banter - many guests found him hilarious and even the sceptical ones loved the magic tricks and couldn't work out how he had done it (it's magic powers of course :). He mingled around the different groups of people which varied from age 16 to 80. He was brilliant and the birthday girl loved it. If you're looking for someone to entertain your guests with good humour and excellent magic tricks then I would really recommend John."

"Hi Eugene John was a really nice guy but I was disappointed after reading the reviews, I think John would be great for a wedding going to individual tables with quick tricks but this definitely was not a stand up 'show' (mainly due to the length of time), I cringed at one point as one of our guys heckled and John had an inappropriate response, the tricks were good at times and we did enjoy it but i'm not convinced John is appropriate for a corporate party event (there were only 13 of us), that said we did have a good time. I don't want to sound like a party pooper I just struggled to get it when he came recommended. Kind regards Claire"
