Review by Diane M.

Valentine's Day PartyReviewed on February 11, 2012From Bogota, NJ

Richard Stillman was awesome. He had the audience up dancing from the minute he started to the end. He played the banjo, bagpipes, and he performed rope tricks in between to entertain the children while the parents caught their breaths. Everyone truly had a great time! We would highly recommend him!

CelebrationReviewed on September 8, 2015From Waccabuc, NY

What a fabulous evening! Richard was willing to roll with the flow of the evening perfectly, and was a delight. He was a great square dance caller, and a fun and engaging banjo player. We would have him again! His music brought such a celebratory feel to the evening!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on July 7, 2013From New York City, NY

Richard went above and beyond the call of square dancing duty! He it a talented banjo player and singer who accommodated well to the crowd and knew when and how to keep the party going by also teaching the electric slide; 'roping' us in with his lasso-ing; ( and just when we thought the party was over ) wooing us with his accordion playing!

School AssemblyReviewed on March 28, 2013From Jersey City, NJ

Mr. Stillman was fantastic! His talent and showmanship captured our students and held their attention for the entire show. Mr. Stillman draws his audience into the show making it a wonderful interactive experience.

EventReviewed on January 12, 2014From Princeton, NJ

We had a age range from 3 to 83, at our event. Richard was exceptional, his range of talents and his musical ability was phenomenal. Everyone had a great time and he along with his guitarist Paul, was the reason our event was a success. To be able to entertain and teach the dances at the same time was a huge hit. We had people ask when are we doing this again. I would recommend Richard to any organization that is looking to have a successful event. A true professional in every sense of the word.

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on September 14, 2009From Maplewood, NJ

Richard Stillman is a multi-talented professional in the old vaudevillian tradition. He really made the party for my 6 and 10 year old (yes, they have the same birthday) a success. His show was a lovely balance of performance and interaction. And he dealt with the children whose attention tended to wander without a problem. I would definitely recommend him for anyone's event, young or old!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on September 26, 2010From Cornwall, NY

Richard was exceptionally talented and professional. I throw many big gigs and he will be at our party again! He was able to draw in a crowd that ranged from 1 to 90 years old. Quite a job and he did it flawlessly.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on June 24, 2012From Pipersville, PA

We couldn't have been happier with our choice of Richard Stillman for my son's wedding reception. He engaged two large groups of guests with clear, simple instructions and a sense of humor. His wireless microphone allowed him to join in and demonstrate the directions, which was something the guests readily responded to. In no time the energy level was at it's peak with everyone laughing and shouting while mastering the moves. He is truly a multi-faceted musician and entertainer, and one that I would highly recommend.

Church ServiceReviewed on October 26, 2015From Hopewell, NJ

Richard arrived one hour prior to the event which gave him ample time to set up his sound system. In addition to calling the square dance, he entertained all with his singing and leading all in a grand march to the bagpipes at the end of the event. He interacted very well with young and old alike. A good time was had by all.

Richard did an excellent job both entertaining our club with his bagpipe and banjo playing as well as teaching us all some fun square dancing - We look forward to having him back at our club again - Everyone & all ages enjoyed his enthusiasm & talent.

Corporate FunctionReviewed on September 28, 2009From Brick, NJ

I am the Arts and Entertainment Director for a Senior Assisted Living. I have many Entertainers come and go, but I must tell you Richard Stillman was by far one of the Best. His professionalism and talent were nothing less than amazing. His Musical talent was outstanding. I strongly would recommend him to everyone. My corporate Office has asked me for his information so we could pass the word of his talent to all our facilities in our company, and of course I was more than happy to do so....Soooo Yes he is wonderful! He will be coming back to our place for sure...Enjoy!

Richard and the 'Davids' were awesome. This was a corporate event and my folks are not the most enthusiastic but everyone loved them and several folks asked where they could go see them perform locally.
