Laurence was a thorough professional! He was the perfect entertainer for our dinner group of 30 partners and ran the evening entertainment to include almost everyone while managing to spotlight a few recent promotions.
Thank you, Laurence you made the evening memorable!

Wow! You need to hire Laurence for your next party! I was looking for entertainment for a company dinner party and had no idea where to start. I came across "bark" through a google search and put in my information. Within five minutes, Laurence called me and we had a fabulous conversation. I hired him immediately. We set up a zoom call so I could see some of his "tricks" and we just hit it off. The evening of our dinner party, Laurence arrived early to set up, he did a preshow with some guests, and then did a 45 minute show after dinner. The show was interactive, including many of our guests into the act. There were many laughs, many "wows", and lots of "how did you do that?"! I highly recommend Laurence for your next party. More...

When I first thought of hiring a magician for my company party, I could never have imagined it would turn out as good as it did. Lawrence was east to work with. He was on time, and performed just as he agreed. He was great, focusing on the guest of honor, yet still keeping everyone involved. He even made it personal for the guest (I won’t tell his secret!). I’d 100 times recommend Lawrence if you’re looking for a a fun and entertaining magician for your get together. 5 stars all around! More...

We had booked Laurence to entertain a group of executive leaders at a corporate dinner event. Laurence did an absolutely OUTSTANDING job and I would recommend him to everyone. This was indeed a five star performance. Laurence entertained the group two times during the dinner and this setup worked really well and it was a very fun night for the entire group. Afterwards several of the leaders contacted me and thank me for hosting such a fun night. More...

Laurence was mind blowing! From beginning to end he was such a pleasure to work with. We were seeking something memorable and unique for our daughter’s Sweet 16 birthday party. Laurence was beyond what we expected! My daughter and her friends had the experience of a lifetime! Every aspect of the show was tailored to the audience. Everyone had the opportunity to participate and each were left with special moments. Prior to hiring Laurence he met with me virtually, providing samples of his work that left me wanting more, he also made me feel comfortable inviting him into our home and sharing our special day. The parents of our guests sent messages the following day thanking us for the opportunity to be amazed and are still sharing details of their experiences. He was perfect for a Sweet 16 however, I imagine he would be absolutely amazing in the corporate environment and definitely has a lasting impression! We give the highest recommendations!!
Thank you so much Laurence, we hope to see you again in the near future!

Laurence made our party a huge success!! Laurence did mind blowing tricks that we have no idea how he did them. He had all our guests involved and excited to take part. The guest of honor was made the center of attraction. Laurence made it personal for him also. He obviously puts a lot of time into his show before he shows up! I can’t wait to have another party so we can hire him again!
All our guests wanted his business card!
He was very professional and on time.
You won’t be disappointed!

Q&As

The thing I love most is that I get to see people at the BEST of times. Weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, occasions - its an incredible experience seeing the look of wonder of people's faces, seeing their eyes light up and hearing them say, 'How on earth did you do that!'

I am originally from the UK and owned an IT business which I sold in 2006. My wife and I moved to Florida and I made the decision to pursue my childhood ambition to become a professional Magician.

It's not enough that your next event be a success - it needs to be a FANTASTIC success, anything less is unacceptable.

Achieving that goal is a daunting task though, and a major component of that success is in bringing the right person on board to entertain your guests.

You need an entertainer who you can have the utmost confidence in, someone who is professional in their approach, experienced, and who you know will deliver an amazing show that your guests will love.

That's where I come in. 

When you choose me as your featured entertainer I guarantee that I will be 100% dedicated towards making that happen. The success of your event is my primary goal and my focus is on providing you with the best service possible.

You will know that I am as invested in the success of your event as you are.  I will work with you to provide the perfect show for your guests. I will ensure that creating your event is as hassle free as possible so that your efforts are rewarded with a brilliant show that far exceeds your own expectations and absolutely thrills your guests.
