The Circus Arts Society "Jesse and his Circus-In-A-Suitcase workshop were an absolute highlight of our Downtown Cambridge BIA event! Jesse's communication was seamless, making planning a breeze. He captivated the children with his engaging and interactive performance, leaving them smiling and excited. Beyond that, he has an incredible ability to energize the entire crowd, creating a fun and lively atmosphere. Jesse's talent and professionalism made him a wonderful addition to our event, and we can't wait to work with him again! - Jasmine Percival, Admin Coordinator, Downtown Cambridge BIA" Based in Kitchener, Ontario (22 miles from Stratford) 11th August 2026 Jasmine Percival - The Circus Arts Society

Bill Nuvo--Nuvo Entertainment "Fantastic!! We hired Nuvo Entertainment for our wedding reception, as both MC/DJ and performer. He was professional, punctual, courteous, and genuinely invested in making our event as fabulous as we had hoped & planned! The performance was amazing, as well as appropriate for all ages and interests. I had many positive reviews from our guests. I would definitely recommend Nuvo Entertainment!!" Based in London, Ontario (30 miles from Stratford) 19th September 2026 Brandi Tapp

Juggler, Street & Fire Performer, Magician "Noah is a fantastic performer and was so easy to get to our event! His performance is very engaging and great for large or smaller events." Based in Guelph, Ontario (37 miles from Stratford) Jacob Ferrara - Wilfrid Laurier University: Relay For Life fundraiser for Canadian Cancer Society

Dr. K "I've seen Kemin Zhang perform literally dozens of times, in a range of different settings and venues. He's equally at home doing close-up magic, playing music (in a range of styles and forms), or MC-ing a show. He possesses his own very special ability to transcend genres, forms, cultures, and creative roles to reach out and connect with an audience. He effortlessly bridges the worlds of Magic and Music, sometimes combining the two, often with a healthy dose of humor thrown in. He is a magical, musical Jack-of-all-trades, capable of assuming the throne of a King of Comedy, very comfortable playing the role of Joker when appropriate, and who is always a true on-stage Ace in the Hole." Based in Toronto, Ontario (80 miles from Stratford) Dan Friedman - Magic Show

Fantasia Fantasy Faces and More "Love her work. She always charges the fair prices and is very friendly!" Based in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, United States (196 miles from Stratford) 21st March 2026 Ciarra G - Festival

Brenden Trojan "Brenden brought excitement to the office, which can enhance productivity, improve morale, and foster better teamwork. I heard laughter and sounds of surprise and delight in our lunchroom that I have never heard before. He was on-time, professional, and extremely talented! I would love to have him back again." Based in Columbus, Ohio, United States (258 miles from Stratford) Mary Strout - Corporate Event
