Picnic•Reviewed on June 29, 2012•From Clinton, MD
Mr Eric Henning was very professional and great to work with. He did an outstanding job and all the kids at our annual picnic had a fantastic time. It was over 100 degrees at our event and the kids did not move the entire 45 min performance. Mr Henning entertained not only the kids but the adults as well. Overall, we were very satisfied with the performance that he delivered. I would book him again any time we need a magician. I would highly recommend him for your next event.

This was a picnic for families in an Air Force unit at Joint Base Andrews. What a fun bunch, and some of these airmen are incredible cooks! (I'll be watching for your BBQ restaurant in a few years!)
Both of my parents were Naval officers, so I know what military families go through. That is why I do so many military events, especially for the families. If you are active duty or reserve military or know someone who is, I am happy to serve you!

Mr. Henning was absolutely wonderful. From start to finish, he kept my 6 year old son and all his friends very engaged and entertained. I was a little worried about having 20 plus 6 year old boys at our house, but my son's friends couldn't have been happier or more entertained. The parents were also quite impressed and remarked afterwards about how much they enjoyed Mr. Henning's performance. I would recommend Mr. Henning without reservation. He is fantastic.

Eric did an exccellent job, he took the challenge of intertaining and keeping X35 5-6 year olds and their full attention for 45 minutes. That alone was beyond magical and amazing!!! They laughed and laughed and enjoyed his presentations very much.
As for me, I appreciated his prompt response to all my emails and he also gave me a phone call to let me know that he was coming the day of the party.
He was awsome.

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 6, 2010•From Jessup, MD
Mr. Henning performed at our annual family Holiday event and was very professional and easy to work with. His show was tailored to accommodate a extremely large group and varied age groups. He provided us with a captivating performance that included an amazing and beautiful finale of confetti snow. He kept the audience engaged and entertained for the entire 45 min show. Mr. Henning is an amazing magician and I would highly recommend him for any type of event.

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on October 12, 2013•From Gainesville, VA
I hired Eric for my son's 9th birthday party. He was a delight from the moment we first spoke! He was accommodating to my request for a longer show and then teaching the kids some tricks magic at the end of the show. He had music and involved the kids in the tricks. The adults were just as involved in the show as the kids! He brought gifts for the kids at the end and used the gifts to teach them 3 tricks. The kids were practicing the tricks all night during the sleepover and continued the next morning. Overall Eric was exactly what my son wanted for his party and I would highly recommend him for any type of event, kids or adults.

Thanks, Nancy! They were a most grown-up, polite group of 9-year old boys! They really enjoyed the show, even the parts geared to the younger kids. They focused during the lesson, and it was fun to see them gain confidence as they learned.
Magic for older children is always a challenge, especially when they're bright. Of course they want to figure things out. So from ten years of summer camps and after-school programs, I created a Lesson Show for ages 7 and up. They relax and enjoy the show knowing they will soon learn their own tricks. And bonus Web tutorials reinforce what they learned at the party.

Yesterday at the synagogue, everyone enjoyed first class entertainment. Eric was absolutely outstanding, amazing and humorous magician that entertained a diverse crowd, and involved many children and parents in his performance. He was impressive both as a comedian and magician. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 17, 2009•From Annapolis, MD
Absolutely spectacular. Eric involves the audience and had everyone in the room smiling the entire show. Eric tied in our theme (Magical Year), and nailed it.
We wanted to show our appreciation to our entire store group and franchise owners during this Christmas Meeting and Awards Banquet.
Everyone was thankful for the laughter and fun from Eric's Show!
Thanks You Eric

Picnic•Reviewed on September 20, 2010•From Rockville, MD
Eric was wonderful! Our non-profit organization had our annual picnic and business meeting outdoors at a local park. Eric arrived early to set up. He kept at least 30 - 40 children engaged for 1 hour and he worked well with the sign language and cued speech interpreters that were there. Eric was professional and very entertaining! I would happily recommend him to anyone who is looking for a great magician. Thank you Eric!

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on February 2, 2010•From Frederick, MD
Eric was wonderful from pre-booking through the event. He called to see what I was looking for and ask questions aboutthe audience. Then he also called to check in a week prior. The day of we received 4 inches of snow and he called to let me know he was still coming and arrived with plenty of time. His performance was great, we had a crowd from 1 year to 70 and everyone enjoyed the show, even the hard to please teenagers. He was very interactive and kept the crowd engaged. I would recommend him to anyone and will use him again. His show was fresh, he was professional, yet warm and fun.

Eric was a hit in our children's lounge at our wedding. He made the children feel included and special. He got rave reviews from the entire crowd and we can not wait to use Eric's services again for another special event. From the very beginning Eric was extremely professional and great to work with. We highly recommend Eric.

Eric was fantastic! We had him for our son's 7th birthday party. The children and adults at the party loved him. His character truly added to our Harry Potter themed party. He made the party magical for the children with his wizard show. My son was very happy!

Eric put on a very entertaining, interactive show for our staff and students! Our kids absolutely loved it. Had a nice mix of humor and magic for a mixed audience of teens and adults. He was very professional through the booking process and the show was a great time. You can tell Eric puts his heart into his work and loves what he does. I highly recommend booking Eric!

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on February 28, 2010•From Reston, VA
Eric did a great job of entertaining both the kids and adults at our banquet. He was great at working with us regarding time to make sure that we could fit his show into our already filled agenda - he wandered tables during dinner and entertained people in small groups as well as doing a stage show. He helped make the Cub Scout's Blue and Gold Banquet really special! Thanks Eric.

Well done!! Eric worked well with our tough crowd and incorporated them right along with his act. I'm very pleased we made a last minute decision to do this and he was available. It made a fun and interesting celebration that won't be forgotten by our President on his birthday and our 11th year anniversary for our company. It was a pleasure and we'll keep in mind for future events. Thank you!!
Best regards,
Michelle

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on January 9, 2010•From Fairfax, VA
Mr. Henning was just wonderful! We had around 60 kids (rowdy) & he was amazing. He kept the kids (and adults) totally entertained. 70 other adults next to the show got to really enjoy the party because Mr. Henning kept the show so much fun for the kids. I asked many kids (& adults) who saw the show & they absolutely LOVED him. Our party was a huge success, and i can honestly say that he was one of the main reasons why. I would definitely recommend him to all parties. He was very prompt & extremely accomodating. You really could not ask for anything more. I am so glad i used him for our party & i would definitely use him again. Thank you, Mr. Hennings!!

Awards Night Party•Reviewed on November 22, 2009•From Reston, VA
Eric was our first "Grown up" corporate event. He provided extreme care and thoughtfulness in meeting our needs for an inspirational talk. My staff loved the event and used the words "excellent" and "inspirational" to describe Eric's presentation. This impressed me in that the group varied in age from young adult to older more mature and experienced individuals.

Christening•Reviewed on May 19, 2007•From Upper Marlboro, MD
Eric is not only a master magician, he is a master entertainer. The performance was truly intriguing. He captured the full attention of everyone in the room, ages ranged from 7 to 92. Eric made and instating connection with everyone in audience. He was a hit without a doubt and I'm sure he will be getting follow on bookings from the members of the audience.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 30, 2007•From Springfield, VA
Eric did a MARVELOUS job. He involved the audience and particularly captured the attention of the kids. I especially appreciated his mingling with our guests prior to the show and his personable persona with all whom he met. He inquired into the audience background's so as to tailor his show, which was impressive and most appreciated. I would describe Eric Henning as a professional with a very personal approach and I would not hesitate to have Eric return for another performance in the future.....GREAT JOB !!
