Photo of Happy Entertainment Party Productions Happy Entertainment Party Productions "Katherine B. - "I wanted to write a review about Marilyn Monroe. She came to our home to sing for my husband’s birthday party last night and did an amazing job! She is so beautiful, more so in person than in her photos! The photos on the site don't do her justice! Her demeanor and appearance was what you would expect the real Miss Monroe to have been. Her voice was lovely and her mannerisms were spot on. No one knew she was coming so when she walked in the door all jaws dropped! I am so happy with her performance and couldn't be happier that she made my husband’s birthday so special! Thank you Miss Monroe!" Based in Scottsdale, Arizona 13th July 2026 Katherine B. Photo of Fantasia Fantasy Faces and More Fantasia Fantasy Faces and More "Love her work. She always charges the fair prices and is very friendly!" Based in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania 21st March 2026 Ciarra G - Festival Photo of ClownMan Entertainment ClownMan Entertainment "Jim Pickrell Was a Hit at Our Kid’s Birthday Party! We recently had Jim Pickrell perform at our child’s birthday party, and he was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, Jim had the kids (and adults!) completely captivated with his fun, high-energy show and incredible magic tricks. He struck the perfect balance of humor, surprise, and interactive fun—keeping all the kids engaged, laughing, and wide-eyed in amazement. His ability to connect with children was truly impressive, and he made the birthday boy/girl feel like a true star of the show. Parents have been raving about how great the entertainment was, and several even asked for his info right after the party. If you’re looking to add something magical to your next event, we can’t recommend Jim Pickrell enough. He made the day extra special, and we’re so glad we booked him!" Based in Phoenix, Arizona Siva Mudunuri - Magician and Clown Photo of Caricatures by kathy Caricatures by kathy "Kathy was absolutely WONDERFUL and the most popular station at my event. She was fun, professional, and drew AMAZING caricatures for all of my guests. Everyone was raving about their experience with Kathy and it gave all my guests a unique favor to remember the event. I would highly recommend booking Kathy at your next event, she was the highlight of the day!" Based in Daphne, Alabama Chelsea B. - Anniversary Party Photo of Fabulous Face Painting for your next event Fabulous Face Painting for your next event "Amazing person and amazing work. Alecia was on time and was taking her time with each kid. She did not try to rush the child and her work was amazing!! She didn’t leave until each child and whoever else wanted their face painted. I can’t wait for another event that I can hire her again. Thank you." Based in Milford, Connecticut Adina A - Family Gathering Photo of Happy Entertainment Party Productions Happy Entertainment Party Productions "Diane C.- "I made arrangements with Ron to have Austin Powers come to our work to celebrate my husband's birthday. It was hilarious and involved everyone in the room. Yeah baby! Couldn't have been any better and my husband was talking about it for days after! Excellent job and thanks for memories we will never forget."" Based in Scottsdale, Arizona 13th July 2026 Diane C.
