After much searching we hired Doug the magician for our twins First Holy Communion party and we're so glad we did! From our first conversation he was polite, professional and very enthusiastic. Right from this moment we had a good feeling about him and knew the kids would love him...and love him they did!To our pleasant surprise not only did the kids enjoy him but the adult guests stopped and became part of the audience as well. Each person was mesmerized not only by his tricks but his delivery and finish.For 90 minutes, Doug entertained a group of children ranging in ages of 3 to 11, while allowing the adults enjoyable adult time.We heartily recommend Doug the magician for any social celebration, he is truly a kid, and a kid at heart pleaser.

It was a wonderful show that Doug gave our nephew’s party. It was very entertaining! The kids had so much fun. He definitely knows how to get those little ones’ hearts. The Oreo trick was the best and he even gave the kids balloons at the end. Very thankful to this guy who was able to accommodate us even with a very short notice!

We had an absolute blast with Doug the Magician at our summer camp program this year. I am not sure who laughed more- us or the children- but I know that we all loved the show! Doug was very interactive, hilarious, and patient with our campers- especially during balloon animal time. We highly recommend Doug and can’t wait to have him come back to our camp next summer! Thanks again for bringing awesome magic to STS! More...

Super funny, accommodating, and magical! We recently had Doug come to my son's birthday party, and he magically held the attention of 8-12 kids ranging from 3 to 8 for 45 minutes including all adults (lol - yes) ! His tricks and comedy had the kids (and the adults!) laughing. Very flexible and affable. There were many belly laughs that day! Doug made sure that my son was the center of the attention and still made everyone who attended the party feel special, too! I highly recommend him. He was very kind and wonderful to work with, from the first time we contacted him to after the party. I will definitely be contacting him again for a future birthday party! More...

Doug delivered as promised on all counts. A great highly interactive very entertaining magic show that kept the kids mesmerized 90 minutes (a magical feat in itself! ,) a simple and easy to booking process, met our fluid timing requirements and was on time, and Doug is very pleasant to work with. 5 STARS ACROSS THE BOARD! See you in Florida in December, Doug. More...

I had Doug perform at my daughter's 6th bday party, and his show was pretty much exactly what he presents it to be. He was a fine magician and had a nice rapport with the kids. His tricks were a mix of slapstick, but also some real magic mixed in, which seems about right for a group of 6 year olds. I had no regrets hiring Doug and am happy to recommend him. More...

My synagogue used Doug for Purim magic show, mixed ages, big crowd, kids had a GREAT time (they told me!). Also, Doug is a total professional to work with, turns out a week before the show I realized I booked the wrong date BY A FULL MONTH, Doug was able to switch dates and was totally gracious about it.

I normally don't review or participate in any social media, as a matter of personal choice, but I'm compelled to say how happy we were with Doug the Magician who performed at our son's recent birthday party. We never hired a magician before but my son caught the "magic bug" and we thought it would be a lot of fun to surprise him with a magician. Doug's references checked out, he is very pleasant and thorough and his magic was great! The kids (4-9 year old) loved his tricks, my son assisted Doug and just had a great time. I highly recommend Doug. I can't say enough good things! More...

Doug the Magician put on a wonderful, engaging magic show for my daughter sixth birthday. Per my request, Doug creatively customized his magic show for a Harry Potter theme. He wore a Harry Potter badge, played Harry Potter music and referred to Harry Potter in various magic tricks. The children and parents were thoroughly engaged for the entire 45 minute performance, laughing and asking Doug many questions. Doug was on time, set up everything quickly, was highly organized and a great communicator prior to the show, assuring me that all of my requests would be met in a highly professional manner. Doug is fantastic to work with in every way! More...

Doug's magic was great, he was funny and a pleasure to work with! Our son had a great time and so did all of his friends. After the magic Doug gave the kids a half hour magic lesson and all of the kids got a neat trick to keep. Yeah Doug. He was worth every dollar! Donna and Dave S.

We were absolutely floored by our experience with Doug the Magician from the initial conversation to the end of my daughter’s 8th birthday party. When I sent out quote requests I was impressed with Doug's upbeat pleasant manner, asked the right questions, and was efficient. Working with Doug was a pleasure and in the end, I decided on him because of his great manner and attention to detail. I knew we were in good hands. On the day of the party, Doug arrived on time, set up quickly to some party music they kids enjoyed and everything ran smoothly. The tricks were great, he had the kids from the start, they were laughing, amazed and everyone had a great time. Doug invited my daughter to help him with a few tricks which she loved. The smile on my baby’s face said it all. Absolutely priceless. My daughter loved Doug. I highly recommend him! Kate R.

My wife found Doug the Magician of FaceBook and he recommended a great magic show for our family reunion. The show was great. Doug invited our 3 boys to help him with a very funny routine with Oreo cookies making them appear and some funny bits. He took a bite out of a cookie and then waved it in the air and the darn thing became whole again! He did another adorable trick with a bunny hiding in a house that had the kids screaming that was charming. Doug really made the reunion special! I'm sure we'll hire him again. Ryan D.

We were interested in having some type of entertainment for our daughter's communion lunch party last Sunday which we held at a very upscale restaurant. Face painting was out of the question and my daughter wasn't interested in having someone create balloons so we decided to have a magician. My husband interviewed 5 magicians that he found online on Craigslist but he connected best with Doug The Magician. He hired Doug to do magic for my daughter, 4 nieces and 10 nephews. We were also 48 adults but the intention was to have Doug for the kids.
When Doug arrived at the restaurant the Maitre d' showed him to our room. Doug greeted my daughter and me with a warm smile and he was charming to us complimenting my daughter her on her beautiful dress and hair. Right from the start of his magic Doug had the kids AND adults in the palm of his hand. We had so much fun, Doug was so funny and his magic so entertaining even some of the grumpy uncles were smiling ear to ear. Doug was wonderful. I was so happy with my husband's decision to hire him it was the highlight of our luncheon and I told my husband to give Doug a $30 tip.
I'll never forget in his last trick Doug said there is so much love in this room for our daughter I don't even need to use my magic words to accomplish my last trick. My eyes welled up a little. Instead he asked everyone to say "We love you Nancy" and he magically produced to Nancy's surprise her favorite candy Jolly Ranchers and Starbursts. Doug asked my husband what here favorite candy was over the phone. We will be having Doug back for my son's communion next year. Anna M.
