Abracadabra doesn't even begin to sum up our experience with Magician Dave! From the moment we began communicating to the actual day of his show, Dave was professional, highly responsive and delivered an even better show than anticipated.
We had a group of twelve children ranging from ages 4-7 years old and each of them were continuously captivated for the entire show and workshop. The workshop included amazing tricks and Dave provided the children with quality materials to keep so they could continue to practice and mystify their friends and family.

Magical Dave was the best decision we made for my daughters 1st bday. We had absolutely an amazing time , Dave did a great job at keeping the kids entertained throughout the whole time of his show, they laugh and had a blast! Most important Dave did a great job at keeping it save for the kids with the Proper COVID regulations and still feel engaged. I would definitely re-hire his service.

Magical Dave is the best!! We hired Magical Dave earlier this year to do a virtual magic show for our son’s 7th birthday and he did not disappoint. Dave was incredibly easy to work with, professional and communicated clearly ahead of the event. The show itself was fun and interactive. The magic wow-ed us but Dave is also super funny. He kept the kids engaged and laughing the entire time. You really can’t go wrong hiring Magical Dave!

Magical Dave did an event for my daughter's school and brought so much joy and light to all of our kids and families! BEST magic I've seen on Zoom all year...and I've been to a lot of magic zoom bday parties. :) He's funny and has great energy and a wonderful way of engaging the kids -- even across the screen. I would highly recommend some time with Magical Dave as soon as you can. :)

We hired Magical Dave to perform for my son's 6th grade virtual birthday party and the kids had a really amazing time. In fact, when my son's kindergarten class returned to school the next day, they pretty much hijacked the morning meeting by talking about the show non stop...so my apologies to the teachers of K-133 for all the disruption :-) Dave is really able to hold the attention of young children and he tries to get everyone to participate (and we had 25+ kids on that call). His tricks are fun and entertaining! I would also recommend the magic workshop that you can add on (for an additional

Our five-year-old son attended Magical Dave's Zoom show, and it was a major hit! Magical Dave is the perfect stand-up comedy magic act for every young kid. He has mastered the online technology perfectly. We adults were laughing the whole time, too. And it's educational: my son's own humor grew by leaps and bounds just by watching Magical Dave. The show was a dream pick-me-up that we all needed.

We had an awesome birthday party, magic workshop, and private magic lesson with Dave. He has a wonderful way with kids. When we had the private magic lesson a few days before the party we could tell that Dave was going to be very fun. He taught our daughter some tricks to perform during her party zoom. During the actual party we had about 30 kids and many adults all laughing and enjoying the tricks and seeing Fluffy and Marshmallow. During the workshop Dave taught the kids a few tricks to show their friends and family. Since then, I have received feedback from everyone who joined that it was an

Magical Dave turned our son's ninth birthday into "the best birthday party" he's ever had (and he's enjoyed some pretty memorable birthday parties). Dave kept nearly twenty children (mostly in the 8-9 year range, with a few younger ones as well) enthralled for a solid hour of performance, magic workshop and balloon animals. His performance and humor are entirely age-appropriate for younger children, yet kept both children and adults alike well entertained. Dave's humorous banter, ready engagement with the children, approachability, living drawing (WE LOVED THIS

We just had Magical Dave perform for our kids shared birthday party and were beyond thrilled. Magical Dave was able to keep kids of various ages as well as all the adults thoroughly engaged and entertained. Every parent at the party came up to us afterwards and told us how great he was. MD performed age appropriate tricks, and kept the kids involved the entire time. He even had my kids make Marshmallow the bunny appear, which they thought was so cool!
From our initial contact, until the day of the party, MD was easy to communicate and work with. He showed up promptly, and came completely prepared
