Reviews

Crickett was by far the best part of my child’s birthday party. He performed at my niece’s birthday party a few years ago and we knew we wanted to have him perform once my kids got old enough! Who else can say they were able to get 20 4 year olds to sit still and be quiet for 45 whole minutes?! The kids and adults alike were captivated at his talent and enjoyed many laughs throughout the performance. My birthday boy is already asking if we can have Crickett for his next birthday, but next time, he wants to add fire tricks! I can’t recommend Crickett enough! You will not be disappointed!

We have been having our daughters birthday parties at our house for the past 5 years and this last one was the best yet, all because of Crickett. He entertained 35 kids, ages 1-11, for an entire hour with circus tricks, a magic show, and juggling. Not only did he entertain the kids and adults, but was very professional and self sufficient. He made the day more special!

When again we need a performer to come and delight our children, I’ll be sure to book Crickett! His jokes were perfectly corny, and the magic enthralled our preschoolers. His facial expressions and effective timing kept the kiddos glued to their seats. They truly enjoyed every silly minute! And by the way, the parents and staff laughed a lot too! Reasonably priced; reliable; organized; everything I need as a busy preschool administrator!

Crickett is the best!!
Our organization has hired Crickett multiple times! Crickett is prompt, truly talented, kind, communicative, consistent, and professional.
From stilts to unicycle shows to more, Crickett always brings joy!
