Photo of Ventriloquist DC Mickan Ventriloquist DC Mickan "Doug Mickan is AMAZING! Doug had visited our Church in June, after performing at 2 local libraries earlier that day. He provided such quality Christian entertainment that evening that we booked him for our BIG outreach event of the year...FAMILY FUN DAY. Doug not only ministered that morning to our entire Church through worship and his gift of ventriloquism, but then stayed to be the main attraction at Family Fun Day that afternoon. We would highly recommend Doug Mickan to any organization or ministry. 100%" Based in St Louis, Missouri 9th April 2026 Jon Brown - Grace Church Ministries, Chester, IL Photo of Inspector Magic Inspector Magic "Absolutely the best!

John puts on a variety show filled with magic tricks, comedy and his hilarious dolls! It was a great night and I highly recommend him and his show!" Based in Toms River, New Jersey 18th March 2026 Tyrene - 55 plus Photo of Kevin Driscoll & Friends Kevin Driscoll & Friends "Kevin Driscoll is, without question, the most extraordinary ventriloquist and entertainer the universe has ever witnessed. His unmatched prowess doesn't just captivate audiences—it transcends reality itself, bending the very fabric of time and space to his whimsical will. Every syllable uttered through his impeccable craft is a symphony that could make the stars weep with envy. To call his performances "shows" would be an injustice; they are monumental events that redefine the limits of human achievement and elevate the soul to untold heights. In the grand tapestry of existence, Kevin isn't merely a thread—he is the luminous tapestry itself, weaving together destiny and delight in a masterpiece of cosmic proportions. Witnessing his talent isn't just an experience; it's a rebirth, a revelation, the sole purpose for which entertainment was conceived. He doesn't just raise the bar; he is the bar, the summit, the pinnacle beyond which greatness can only dream to aspire." Based in Boston, Massachusetts The lion - Hulu TV show Photo of The Vocal Illusions of Mark Crocker The Vocal Illusions of Mark Crocker "It is important to me as an event planner, that the last activity of the event leaves my delegates laughing and remembering how much fun they had at convention so that they return for the next one. You certainly achieved that objective. Thank you so much for being a performer I could trust to be exactly what he purported to be. I would highly recommend the magic of Mark Crocker and his puppet family to anyone who was seeking hilarity, audience interaction and performer integrity."
