Jocko performed at my 7 year old son's bday party. We also saw him at our local elementary school. He is talented and puts on a great show. He keeps all the kids engaged and entertained and made my son feel super special on his bday. I recommend him.

Thank you Elizabeth for taking the time to post a well appreciated review. Jocko

Jocko is the BEST!! We hired him to entertain 1st and 2nd graders at our ES! The kids all had an absolute blast and really got into this interactive show. Jocko was funny, very punctual, and you can just tell how much he loves what he does. You can't go wrong if you hire him!

Thank you Kelly for that great review I had just as much fun as the kids did. Thank you for making all of the arrangements and putting it together

Jocko was amazing. He kept 16 kids-mostly seven-year-olds-totally engaged, hysterical with laughter the entire time he performed. Even my son, the ham, tried to outdo him with his own opera singing Jocko never faltered. He just continued with the show and used my son's opera singing to make the performance even better. Couldn't have asked for a better magician for our sons last big kid birthday party. This will definitely be a performance to remember. Completely recommend him to anyone who's throwing a kid party! Great price and professional!!!!!

Hi Karen When I read your comments, I was extremely grateful. As a children's entertainer for many years, I can honestly say that I could not imagine a more complimentary response from a client. Many thanks. JOCKO

Before I begin, first let me say this... Jocko was FANTASTIC!! I first heard of him when someone I know saw one of his shows at a local firehouse. She recommended I look him up to use for my child's birthday party, and how he's been performing in the area for many years. After finding him via Gigmasters, I booked his magic show, and i'm glad I did, it was fantastic. The kids loved it, it was hilarious, and I think the parents laughed just as hard too! Very professional, tricks in good taste, and a master of his craft. The show also featured a live "magic dove" & "Molly the Magic Rabbit"... a nice surprise too! Great show, great value! Thanks JOCKO! ~Mr. M :)

5 Star performance. My 6 year old's birthday would not have been the same without Jocko. He is professional in every sense of the word and very engaging with the children. All loved the balloons and the magic is fantastic. It's apparent that Jocko knows how to gear his shows based on the age group as he never lost the attention of one child. It was the talk of the party and guests that had seen other magicians told me that Jocko's performance is miles ahead of the others.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 6, 2015•From Wappingers Falls, NY

We hired Jocko to entertain the children at my son's first birthday party and were so impressed with how he handled himself and worked the crowd. We felt our group was particularly challenging because of the wide age range of 1-15 but Jocko took it all in stride and entertained everyone. The younger kids were mesmerized while the older ones really enjoyed the entertainment and laughed a lot. I cannot say more about what a wonderful job he did. Hire him! You will not be sorry!!!

We hired Jacko for our sons 3rd birthday party and he is great! very professional was on time the kids loved the show. Star Wars the Bunny was a huge hit with the kids they went crazy when he did that trick. I also loved the fact that he bought extra balloons for the kids that missed the out on the balloon party of the party or who's balloons popped great idea! Overall Jacko is great the best choice we made! Thank you Jacko

Joselyne, Thank you so much for all your positive comments. I had a blast performing the show for you and your family. You really no how to throw a party! JOCKO

Jocko was fantastic, as he was able to get the attention of a group of kids from ages 3 to 73. He was great with all of the young kids, very patient, and was extremely accommodating with all of the balloon animal requests, etc. I would highly recommend jocko, because on top of the great job he did the day of the party, he contacted us a couple of times prior to the event to confirm details and asked questions to make sure he was prepared for what and who he was coming to entertain.

Jocko performed his magic show for my daughter's 8th birthday party. The kids loved him! They were laughing and actively trying to predict the outcome of his tricks. The live animals were a huge hit! He also made balloon animals for all of the kids which they enjoyed. It was also very easy to arrange logistics with Jocko. I was able to hire him on the phone with no issues. He called the morning of the party to confirm that he was coming. He arrived on time, set up quickly and was very courteous and polite.

My son had a blast, he was not feeling so good on the day of his party, jocko made him feel very special. All the kids at the party talked about the magic he did after he had left, always a good sign. I would recommend him to all my friends and family..

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on October 21, 2013•From Danbury, CT

Jocko was very patient, when he arrived the birthday girl only had 1 guest, Jocko waited for the rest of the children to arrive and entertained them blowing up balloons. His show was fantastic and kept the kids very entertained, he also made the birthday girl feel very special during the performance. I would recommend Jocko to anyone who is looking for entertainment for their kids party. Thank you Jocko!

Jocko was punctual and very professional. He did a wonderful job with keeping the kids entertained and got everyone involved in his performance. His balloon animals very very unique and the kids loved them! the kids were also very impressed that he had a bird and a rabbit involved in his act! I would highly recommend his for any child's party!

We hosted a Vacation Bible School event and had Jocko perform for the kids on one of the days for two hours. He did balloon twisting and some magic tricks. The kids absolutely loved every moment of it and were screaming in delight all the time. I look forward to having him back soon. He was really good with the kids. Kids can be really persistent and bothersome sometimes, but he was really patient with them and did everything with a smile. Jocko you ROCK!! :)

Joko was on time and worked the full scheduled event. Although he has other skills, Our event just warranted that he do balloon animals the entire time, which all the preschoolers enjoyed.
