Kevin was absolutely fantastic! We had an outdoor event that was hit with unexpected rain and hail and Kevin just rolled with it. He kept our audience engaged and entertained. This event catered to children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and Kevin was wonderful with everyone. I would highly recommend him for your next event!

Thank you so much for the kind words, Heather!! I had so much fun entertaining you and everyone at this tremendously awesome event! Love the good work that you all do @ The Arc of Essex!!

We absolutely loved this guy. We called him mainly to entertain kids between 2-8 years but all the adults loved him equally.I was the host so did not get a chance to sit and enjoy the entire show but in pictures I see kids and adults laughing equally in all the pictures. Lots of guests said-we have not seen a magician so talented and funny.
Balloons he made were even more fun…specially the bike. I can’t wait to invite him again next time we get a chance. He was very nice and polite. My preschooler still looks at his videos and laughs her gut out every time she sees him. Thank you Kevin for all the laughter you brought.

Kevin C Carr and KCC Variety Entertainment was better beyond anything we expected.
In our conversation before the day of the party, Kevin was accomodating, informative and professional.
On the day of the party, we found him to be entertaining, not just for the 6 year olds at our sons birthday party, but the patter within his act was hip and funny for the adults and older kids, as well. His magic act was riveting and delightful. His balloon animals were complex and amazing.
Working on Broadway, in Film and on TV, we had a very high level of expectation. He blew us away with the sophistication of his act, and his overall professionalism.

Private Party•Reviewed on June 22, 2009•From Skillman, NJ
Kevin was accomodating from the outset. He did fire eating / transfer with a little magic and comedy banter at our party. Guests were a mixed group of 50 mainly adults. Kevin was funny as well as create several "Ooooh.... Ahhh" moments ! He is a very talented artist. At the end of the event Kevin mingled for 30 minutes giving guests chance to talk and see magic close-up. We have had very positive feedback from our guests. I could also envisage Kevin doing a great job at a kids oparty (there were some younger kids present). I would not hesitate to invite him back to entertain my children with another act.

Great experience. Kevin kept the kids engaged. He has great talents. He was on time and even stayed a little late to finish up the kids balloons.
Would definitely use again.

If there were 10 stars for Kevin's talent, he'd have got that. He had come for my son's 4th birthday party with kids aging from 10 mons to 12 yrs. The kids were all a bit nervous initially but you won't believe how he turned the tables around within 10-15 mins. I had booked his 90 min show which involved juggling, plate balancing, magic and illusion tricks and his FAB balloons...I have never seen ANYONE make such balloons. He asked the kids what they wanted and they came up with some really wild ideas - the Basketball hoop, a tree with a monkey holding a banana, dinosaur and what not. All parents were appreciative of his patience and talent. Thanks so much Kevin!!!

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on November 15, 2010•From Brooklyn, NY
Kevin C. Carr was not actually available and recommended I use the "Hey Ya Bros." Banana Peel (aka Christopher) showed up to my 1 year old's birthday party of 65 people as a magician. He was fantastic. I originally thought the adults would be interested and told him to perform 1/2 hour for them and then 1/2 hour for the children. Unfortunately, the adults at the party were too busy chatting, but that did not deter Banana Peel. He quickly redirected his focus on the children and performed for them. He went above and beyond in his performance. The children loved him and the adults that watched loved him too. I highly recommend him for everyone of all ages.

We hired Kevin for our son's birthday party. He's very professinal... He arrived early to make sure he's not late for the event. The kids had fun with his magic tricks and balloon twisting. He paid attention to all the kids. One kid requested for a balloon he never did before - a helicopter - and he spent extra time to make sure the kid gets what he wanted. Adults had fun too. I would highly recommend him.

Kevin couldn't make it due to a family emergency. He immediately called me to see if I was ok with another entertainer, Peter Juris, filling in. I appreciated his professionalism and was happy to have Peter come in his place.
Peter was on time, very friendly and professional. He entertained the kids, ages ranging between 7 and 10, as well as the adults. The performance was great, he had everyone laughing and the kids enjoyed the magic tricks & the balloon animals... he was EXTREMELY patient with each of them. I would not only recommend this agency to friends, but I'm hoping to hire them for another party in the future!

We celebrated our daughter’s 6th BD. Kevin was present among us entertaining the children. There were about 20 children age 2 to 11 years. Kevin occupied them for almost two hours. Children were glued to him. He came early to check the restaurant hall and to plan his performance. He continued to perform pass the time we hired him for to make sure every kid is happy. Thank Kevin.

Kevin performed for a joint 4 yr old birthday party. He had an audience of about 25 4yr olds and their parents. The children sat for the entire show and were just amazed. All my pictures are of them with smiles on their faces. Many parents asked me for his info because they will be using him for future events in our area. Bravo to Kevin for a job well done and making two little 4 yr olds smile and creating a birthday they can remember! Thanks.

For this group of 6-8 year olds, Kevin was perfect. He had them completely involved and entertained and went out of his way to make sure all 20+ kids got a balloon figure at the end. Highly recommended.
