Graduation PartyReviewed on May 14, 2009From Saint John, IN

along with his hour show he also interacted with the audiance by doing some magic at the tables, he had audiance participation during the show which was really good, over all he was really good and i would surely recommend him to friends

Nice clean show and easy to work with. John mingled at our happy hour and did slight of hand tricks....everyone enjoyed this. We enjoyed the audience participation in the main entertainment....the office is still talking about the show and some of the tricks performed....how did they do this or how did they do that? It was light-hearted magic that still left you wondering how some of the tricks were performed. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. I would recommend Measner Magic to others.

John did a great job with a "tough" audience. I would recommend him highly. He did strolling magic for the cocktail hour of our office party and then a l/2 hour "show". EVERYONE was pleased!!

The act was well received by the majority of the crowd. I think our venue may have been a litle big, but most people still seemed to make their way to a table to watch the entire act. Thank you again!

Our overall experience as a committee was satisfactory. Unfortunately, we thought the balloon, rings, and egg trick was very long to get through the end. Of course the illusion tricks were awesome! and held everyone's attention. I understand the need to mix it up, however, those 3 tricks took awfully long.

This review comes as a complete surprise to me. You not only communicated you complete satisfaction after my show, we discussed about doing a larger show at next years block party. It is unfortunate that you thought my performance was only satisfactory. As you stated, I held the attention of at least 100 people that were in the audience. If the vast majority felt my routines were too long, I guarantee they would not have stayed to watch the whole 50 minutes of my performance. As far as your personal feelings of my routines, two of them (balloon and rings) are audience participation tricks and are 8 and 9 minutes long respectively. The egg trick is 3 1/2 mi

PicnicReviewed on August 10, 2010From Wheeling, IL

The magic was very good, the balloon twisting was not good. There were several parent complaints about his demeanor with the children (impatient and sarcastic). He was not as engaging, funny, or friendly as past entertainers. He took a long time to get ready after the balloon twisting so the magic show started later than expected, and then he took a 10 minute break in the middle of the show. He tried to sell his product for personal profit, which was inappopriate to do at a charity event.

Two suggestions: One is he did his wow trick first and the rest seemed a little bit slow and could have been better. His wow trick was truly amazing!!! Second: Maybe more audience participation. the kids would really like to be apart of the show. Other that that I would like to use him again.

This performance was great, the kids really enjoyed it. The only thing i would request from the magician is that the magic with the animals should be done at the end of the show, always save the best for last!

FundraiserReviewed on May 28, 2012From Villa Park, IL

Half of John's magic was really incredible (some people are still asking if I knew how some tricks worked), half was a bit old, that I have seen for many years. But his personality and style was great for all ages. John was flexible in length of his show without more pricing What most impressed me though was his ability to adapt. Our fundraiser wound up part reunion because so many people that showed up had not seen each other in a long time. Many could not stop talking and being loud. John worked through it and out on a great show!!

School AssemblyReviewed on February 7, 2012From Arlington Heights, IL

It was a good show, but I think there was too much talking and not enough magic. Also, for an older audience, say 6th grade and above a bit more difficult magic tricks would be better. Overall everyone enjoyed it. He was there promptly, great props, good with the kids, and very efficient setting up and tearing down.

CelebrationReviewed on March 25, 2014From Oak Creek, WI

John was very fun interacting with our tenants - the missing ring, the hoops, and some of the people are still talking about "Where did the little dog come from, he just appeared out of nowhere!" Very cute - good job! One comment - the music ws just a little too loud for some of our tenants with hearing aides - but John did turn it down when asked.

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on March 18, 2014From Orland Park, IL

Room was packed with 85 adults and 50 kids. Ranging from ages 1 years to 70 years old. John kept 50 kids all very attentive and also involved some in great tricks. I would definetly highly recommend him. Really friendly man and very professional. Plus, he even allowed some time lapse because of late guests. He brought everything and needed nothing on my end. His show was wonderful and I can not wait to post pics on his FB account! Thank you for everything! My daughters 1st Birthday was a hit. You even left the guests still pondering about your tricks. Lol
