Review by Derek I.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 16, 2008•From Stafford, VA

Michael came and did a show for my 7 year old son's birthday party. The kids had such a blast...even my 2 year old sat still. He had some of the kids help and had my son the "birthday boy" help him with his grand finale. He felt so important! I highly recommend Michael and will most likely have him come back next year. Thanks!

I can not praise Michael enough for his outstanding performance on my daughter’s 5-th birthday party! I would hire him again and will recommend him to all my friends! He delivered a great show that kept 8 girls on the edge of their seats for almost an hour. Michael is also very comforting to talk to – he made sure to call me several times before the actual date telling me not to worry about anything – and he was so right! He is very punctual and reliable person. To everybody who is considering hiring him for your event – do that without any hesitation and you’ll be happy you did! Natasha

Michael is a true pleasure to have. He more than involves his audience and children adore him. This will be the second time Michael has performed for us. We were very pleased both times. I cannot say enough about him - he is wonderful!

Michael Taggert, Magician Extraordinaire, was quite simply "magical"! He totally enchanted our audience from toddlers to teens to adults! His "snowflakes" finishing act fit perfectly with our Holiday Magic theme and was wonderfully magical for all! We will definately have Michael back again and recommend him highly for your event.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 19, 2007•From Alexandria, VA

Having Michael at my son's birthday party was both a joy for all there and a special treat for my son -- who is especially intrigued by magic. Michael was very easy with the impromptu aspects of a four-year old's party. When it was 'show time' Michael launched into his routine capturing everyone's interest (not easy to do this for 8 four-year olds) and also made parents glad they came. He had just the right mix of humor and magic tricks -- and was careful not to go too long. His final trick (my son helping on stage) was a joy for me to watch seeing the look of pure joy on my son's face. Mike stayed for cake and socializing a bit -- a great performer and a nice guy!

Michael was very punctual and professional, and did a great job entertaining the very diverse crowd at the party. He kept everyone engaged and did everything that was asked of him. While I didn't get to see much of the magic myself, my guests spoke highly of the experience with him. Thanks Michael!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 19, 2007•From Quantico, VA

Mr. Taggert was very accommodating, professional, patient, knowledgeable and full of energy! He taught me so much about the history of magic and he interacted very well with a group of 8 years olds. He kept them interested and attentive throughout the entire show. The group had an overall pleasurable experience. I would definitely recommend Mr. Taggert to my friends and coworkers. I am going to keep him in mind for corporate functions.

Michael was very entertaining while working the crowd and during his stage performance. This was a corporate Holiday Party and his talent and humor fit right in.

Convention•Reviewed on February 15, 2008•From Fairfax, VA

This performer seemed like a friendly person, but he was not right for our convention. His jokes were somewhat inappropriate at times, and his magic acts were usually either ones that we had seen before and were overdone, or it was easy to tell what the "trick" was. Overall, we were not satisfied with the performance, and especially the ending "finale" did not seem like it took much talent to perform.

:

I disagree with the feedback from the person booking the event. There was constant laughter and I recieved a standing ovation from the audience. The ending of the show was scripted in at the request of the committee in lieu of my usual ending to accomodate the setting and the very late hour of the show. Michael

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 9, 2008•From Nokesville, VA

Mr. Taggert gave a very interactive performance to an active group of 17 children (13 were 7 year old boys). He treated them as equals and was able to contain their interuptions very smoothly. He let them guess some of his magic secrets and worked with all the children. The performance length was perfect, and he was flexible with starting after the children had gotten acclimated and played some games. He kept their attention amazingly well and the magic tricks were age appropriate. I would defintely recommend Mr. Taggert to other potential customers!

Michael Taggert was wonderful! My son's 7th Birthday Party will surely be a memorable one. My son loves magic, and Michael came through! He kept every one's attention and told stories that were very interesting. He was very professional, and his passion for what he does through his magic, showed in the eyes and smiles of the children!

Church Service•Reviewed on May 2, 2009•From Gaithersburg, MD

Michael Taggert performed for our Jr-High church students (6th-8th grade) as the primary audience. They absolutely loved him as well as some children who accompanied the adults. He did a fabulous job and was very accommodating to our needs! 5 stars!
