Most importantly to us, he was able to get our fairly shy daughter comfortable and up in front of the group of her friends to join in his act and, even better, she had a great time doing it. He also stayed after the show to make balloon animals for all of the kids in attendance which was a big hit. It was all around a great show and Alex was fantastic at working with the kids. He was also great at communicating with us regarding preferences etc... leading up to the show. I'd book him again in a heartbeat.

He responded within 10 minutes with information about the show, length, price and that he was available..again, the day before! Amazing! He was professional, kind, and had great communication through the whole booking process. He showed up early to set up. He was so kind and understood that kids (ages 2-10) were slowly gathering to get ready for the show and was so flexible. The whole show, all the kids (and even adults) were entertained! My oldest daughter (5) said that this was the best part of her birthday party. Book Magic Scott Marshall!! Highly recommend!

Mark Phillips and Ryan Phillips were both terrific. The one we voted for did indeed win, but they were both great! The Saturday we were there, there were two performances. We chose the 5pm one. It's a fast-paced show that kept us laughing, intrigued and highly entertained. A very fun, wonderful way to spend entertainment dollars in DC. Not a bad seat in the house! This is downstairs in the historic Mayflower Hotel, nice and close to the Farragut North Metro Stop. Definitely appropriate for all ages. Highly recommend!

I recognize that the Magic Duel takes huge pride in 5 star reviews on Yelp, which I deeply respect. But I did wish that we had seen the show in a different venue. I am no stage expert, but lights and sound do matter a lot in delivery of a magic show for a skeptic like me, going because the significant other loves magic shows. With better lighting, things would have been more "magical" (thinking bottles.) I was also surprised that a bubble artist, as good as she was in her profession, was considered a magician. After some quick research, you will end up at Magic Duel in this genre, so please go to Dupont or Georgetown.

This is copied over from a special Yelp event review:…read more A brilliant event! Magic over Zoom? Yes, it is not only possible but Adam Stone did it flawlessly. It was far closer to an in person experience than I would have ever imagined. Cheers to Yelp on 16 and picking some great virtual experiences to help celebrate. It would be great to see Adam in perform in person someday! ...back to reviewing here. Magic is not something you would normally consider possible as a virtual experience. The environment is too controlled and obviously you can only see whatever the camera is pointing at which isn't much in a 3D world. However, the way Adam interacts with his audience actually translates across virtual bounds! Thus, like I said above for the special Yelp event review... it would be great to see Adam perform in person someday!

You need to book Adam Stone…read more That's the conclusion to this review, but we wanted to make sure it was the first thing you see. Adam Stone put on a show that captivated an audience from ages 1 to 80. Throughout his performance you could hear 'Oos' and 'Aahs', laughter, and even silence at parts as people eagerly waited to see what was about to happen. He included kids and adults in his show; working effortlessly with even the most sugar-hyped children there. He was careful to include as many kids as possible and took all of the unexpected actions you get from them in stride. Once his show was done, the guests couldn't stop talking about it. Everyone had parts - adults and kids alike. But the actual show is just one part of the experience of booking and working with Adam Stone. When I first contacted him, he was very quick to respond and very easy to communicate with. On the day of the event he kept me updated on his arrival time, and arrived with plenty of time to set up. When he finished setting up, he took time to get to know the kids; even playing a few party games with them. This helped when it came time to work with the kids during the show. When the show was finished, he spent some time talking to the kids who obviously had many questions about magic. At no point did we feel like he was rushing in or rushing out. He really dedicated time to our party not just during the show, but the before and after as well. If you're thinking of booking a magician, I will tell you this: You need to book Adam Stone.  We cannot thank Adam Stone enough. So we'll do our best: The biggest thanks from Albert, a very happy 1 year old, and his family and friends!

Nobody, and I mean nobody, does a kid's magic show like The Great Zucchini! He is the only magician…read morethat can keep the kids laughing and screaming with delight for over 40 minutes straight. The Great Zucchini is a genius kid's magician and has broken new ground in the area of magic performance and comedy. He really changed the game by distinguishing between "magic trick performance" and "hilarious comedy magic". I recommend The Great Zucchini to anyone looking to give their kid's an unforgettable show... when you want the best, he's it... and well worth it! Having a five year old, I can personally attest to the magic abilities of The Great Zucchini and recommend him without hesitation. He's the best!!!!

Since then we have seen him a number of times and everytime she still laughs as hard as the first time! When I see he's appearing near us I'll ask her if she wants to see him again and she still always says yes. But besides being a fantastic children's entertainer he is also a real humanitarian. When my husband was planning an event for children of military veterans, without our asking, he volunteered his time to come and entertain the children. And that's not the only show that he has donated to a good, non-profit cause--he's a really nice guy.
