I had Sly at my wedding a few weeks ago. He was a total hit with all the guests! He did "walk around" magic during the cocktail hour and all the guests who saw him said they could not understand how he was doing the things he was doing. He also helped all our guests mingle. I definitely recommend him as excellent entertainment at weddings! More...

My wife hired Sly to perform recently at my 40th birthday party. Sly was the star of the night! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed his performance. We were locked in as he performed his numerous tricks and gave us many laughs along the way. It was a performance that everyone will remember! I definitely recommend hiring him. More...

Absolutely spectacular and would suggest Sly's services for any event! I hired Sly for my 33rd birthday party. Both the close-up crowd magic and the 15 min show were AMAZING. My guests were delighted and have been talking about it nonstop since the event. 10/10 recommend!He was also a consummate professional, prompt in responding to my initial inquiry, transparent in pricing, and always very communicative. It made the organization a breeze! More...

We had Sly visit our company retreat weekend and do an hour long show. We werent sure what to expect but Sly had it all planned out perfectly. He is a total pro with his music and lights and props. The magic he performed was top notch...our guys were hooting and hollering watching so many cool things. Sly is a fantastic act to book! More...

Sly gives an excellent show! We had attendees from 4 - 81 years old, and everyone really enjoyed themselves. We had multiple folks who helped with the show and all of them were blown away by the magic of Sly! Some of our folks are already planning on attending his show at the StageCoach Theater. Book Sly or go to his show, you won't be disappointed! More...

Who would have guessed that a gentleman in a black suit and tons of magical personality wandering through a room full of adults could hold them captive! ?! Pull out their long lost childhood curiosity buried deep within years of skepticism. The simple love of entertainment and surprise remembered. No rabbit in a hat was needed. More...

I highly recommend Sly if you’re looking for a professional entertainer. We were planning a small NYE party and wanted a little something special for the evening, I reached out to Sly and he responded so quickly. Within a day, we were set for the event, with all the details worked out. He arrived just exactly when he said he would and immediately began to set up. The show was fantastic, starting off with some humor and ending with everyone trying to figure out how he managed those tricks! There was audience interaction and everyone in our small group had a chance to participate. I appreciate Sly’s good communication and punctuality and I plan to ask him again to share his talents next time we have a similar function! More...

Alec performed at my husband’ s birthday party to a group of about 25 people . He began his show with close up magic roaming to individual tables and then moved on to an hour group performance. Alec was extremely entertaining as evidenced by the frequent applause and shocking surprises he created throughout. Alec is a consummate entertainer and knows how to work the crowd . He engaged several individuals during his show and exhibited good humor and charm. Before the performance I was able to describe the kinds of magic that I wanted in the show and he was very accommodating. Our friends were still talking about the show days later. More...
