As always the perfect person for children's parties. I used Jonathan a long time ago, he has not changed he's still just as friendly and funny. He has the children & adults laughing,getting involved during the show. He was a joy to watch and surprisingly the parents stayed as well. Magicians have a way of bringing everyone together and making it perfect. All of us thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon and he definitely made a few fans along the way.
So thankyou I look forward to sharing the photos with you.
I highly recommend him for any children's parties, if your unsure how to entertain them, he is worth every penny, just sit back watch and enjoy.

Jonathan is always such a fantastic entertainer and we were thrilled that he was able to perform at our 6-year-olds birthday party. Jonathan was fantastic when we had to reschedule and had no grumbles about moving the date due to our son’s illness. The kids at the party absolutely loved his routine and the parents were equally entertained. Don’t hesitate to snap him up for your own family bash! More...

We went to see public performance of Punch and Judy in park today. My son is autistic and has adhd and other additional needs. Over this summer he went to few of the Punch and Judy performances done by different entertainers and absolutely loved it. Jonathan’s rude attitude is very appalling , and I don’t think he should be working with children as they clearly irritate him. Today we came few minutes late and my son missed the part with clown. When Jonathan asked the children if they seen the clown, they all shouted yes. My son truthfully shouted no. Jonathan told him off in front of everyone, made him completely freeze in shock . I had to go and pick up my son physically from the stage and take him away in tears. Well done sir, hope you’re proud of yourself to completely ruin little autistic’s boy day. He won’t stop talking about how bad he felt and never wants to go to see another show again due to fear of something similar happen again. Maybe it’s time to wrap entertaining career and move on to something else! More...

We held my little ones 3rd birthday at the weekend and booked Punch & Judy with Jonathan for the last 30mins of the party. After spending 1½hrs bouncing around on the bouncy castle this was the best decision we made. Jonathan was great with all the little ones who ranged from 1yr olds to 6 yr olds. He instantly got them engaged and they listened to his every word. He even had the magic touch (no pun intended) just getting them to sit down and not wander around - all the parents wanted to know what his trick was haha! Not only did he entertain the kids, all the parents loved it and were getting involved too. Thank-you Jonathan for making my little ones 3rd birthday one to remember forever More...

We highly recommend Jonathan. We couldn't have been happier with our choice to book Jonathan Cann for our daughters 3rd Birthday party. We held a picnic party in our garden and Jonathan was absolutely brilliant. His performance was funny for the little ones and also witty for the adults who loved it just as much. It was traditional magic tricks aimed at young children, he used puppets to and the kids sat for 45mins through the entire show. We were all immersed in his nostalgic show which finished with my daughter assisting Jonathan with balloons animals. It was inclusive for everyone and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you Jonathan, you made our daughter's birthday party very special indeed! More...

I couldn’t thank Jonathan enough for being our entertainer at my son’s 7th birthday. As everyone else said, he already started entertaining kids before the show starts, leaving us time to do preparations. Very kind of him to even help with settling kids for their lunch and still being around to keep them entertained. Everyone can really say he’s an expert in entertainment and you wouldn’t regret having him at all, most especially for my husband and I to organize for our son’s birthday party in the UK for the first time. And he did not only make kids happy, but the adults as well! Huge thanks, again, Jonathan! More...

Q&As

Since the age of seven when I received my first magic kit.

Oooooh -so many shows to choose from!
All shows include age appropriate routines whether for three year olds or the other end of the spectrum.
I recently performed Punch & Judy at a ninety year old party. That's what they wanted!
Magic Shows - Family magic with lots of participation, fun and laughter.
Punch & Judy Show - This is the traditional story with up to ten characters plus sausages!!! I visit schools with my show and at the end there is a strong anti-bullying message. I am re-booked by schools each year.
Balloon Modelling - Turning long balloons into dogs, hats, swords etc... Super fast - a dog in six seconds! This can be static or walkabout. Mini-workshops where children learn to make their own balloon can also be included.
Close-up magic - In a walkabout situation this can be performed for adults and also children.
At all times the emphasis is on fun!
In everything I do, laughter guaranteed!

The reaction of wonder whether from a young child or an older adult. I am addicted to the sound of laughter. The more I hear, the more I have to receive!!

I was self employed as an actor for many years and the magic just took over my life.
As I have appeared in professional pantomime I found adding Punch & Judy relatively easy as I look on it as Summer panto, although I do perform the show at all sorts of Birthdays, School Events, Anniversaies and Weddings throughout the year.

I will communicate with you easily and accurately from the moment of your enquiry right up to the end of your event. My performance will be age appropriate with fun and laughter guaranteed in order to create a lasting happy memory for you and your guests. From year to year I perform at many repeat bookings and also receive bookings from the best recommendation - word of mouth!

Services

For over twenty years I have worked as a children's entertainer performing Magic, Punch & Judy and Balloon Modelling at Birthday parties, Christenings, Weddings and all sorts of family events. I return time and again to schools and village fairs performing my shows throughout the south-east of England and beyond.

This is the traditional puppet show which has been in England for over three hundred and fifty years.
Contains lots of audience participation, a strong anti-bullying message and laughs by the dozen!
Each performance of Punch & Judy lasts around twenty to twenty-five minutes and contains up to eleven characters plus sausages!

I have been a professional entertainer for over twenty years presenting magic shows, Punch & Judy and Balloon Modelling at private parties, school fairs, village fetes, weddings, Christenings.... ...anywhere entertainment is required. Fun & laughter guaranteed.

Superfast balloons for children's parties, fetes, fairs, weddings etc..
Can also be done in corporate colours if required.

Two areas - Children's Magic and close-up magic.
Children's Magic Show targeted at the age of the audience with lots of interaction, comedy but most importantly fun and laughter.
Close-up Magic is performed to small groups at dinners, weddings, christenings etc..
It truly is magic right in front of your eyes. Can also be given a corporate slant if required.

I perform close-up magic right in front of your eyes - so different to watching it on television. Using cards, ropes and coins my aim is to mystify you but above all make it an entertaining experience.
I perform at dinners, functions, family events and corporate days.
