Avery is still walking on a magic cloud, and I have heard from several other parents who said that it has been such a great day that their children are even now still playing elaborate imaginative games about being Mister J, or their own Magic persona with their wands and hats. I have never seen Avery so comfortable in any performance type setting, and have to say that based on today’s confidence building show with you, she will likely be forever gracing stages with her brilliant smile, rather than worry. We couldn’t be happier. You’re a pleasure to deal with, and an awesome performer- thanks so much!!”

“I would like to thank you so much for the wonderful show today at Asia’s fifth bday.

I was the ‘only’ parent on the floor with my ‘nervous/shy’ daughter (only in public – she doesn’t stop chatting at home) and you were so inclusive. You spoke to her and let her hold your magic wand from her spot on the floor and she had the time of her life! She has been talking about the silly Mr J aka Mr Meatball all day and night. She loved the talking drawing I too, had so much fun and laughed like I haven’t in a long time.

You are a very talented person who has a wonderful way with children and adults alike. Best of luck on Dragons Den! They would be silly not to choose to help you. You are so passionate and professional and so MUCH FUN! Great crowd control – I could go on and on . But I was so touched that you were able to remember names and include all of the children.

Awesome job! Keep up the Fantastic work!”

We have thrown her a birthday party every year and told her this year will most likely be her last until her sweet 16 and she could have and do what ever she wanted. Well long story short … she said she wanted you to do her birthday. This will be one birthday Becky will never forget for the rest of her life and you made that possible. You were also a great hit with the adults. My parents will talk about it for some time. My wife had to pick them up in the valley before the show and I took them home after the show. They have never experienced anything like your show before and mom talked about it all the way home. Here are some photos that you can use for your website if you wish. Great job and we will tell everyone we know about The Amazing Mister J.”

I could not imagine how you were going to keep the full attention of 24 kids from 3 to 6 for 75 minutes and I will admit that I was somewhat skeptical…..not only did you do this, but you also captured the attention of all of the adults as well!!! You were incredible, and the children will never forget your show. I had comments from many parents, and my children are still talking about you non stop this morning! I will definitely have you back again, and please feel free to post this on your testimonial site, it would be my pleasure to help promote your show.”

“I just wanted to take a moment to say thanks for putting on a great show for Brady’s 6th birthday. You have a great talent and energy and I was amazed at how easily you were able to draw the children into the performance. I was most impressed by how you referred to all the children by name from very early on in the show. Well done! When one of the parents was leaving with their son, I overheard him tell his mother ‘You should have seen the magic show mom, it was so much fun!’ I guess that says it all. For any parent considering Mister J’s Magic as a birthday party option, I can honestly say that it by far surpasses the other options out there for kids entertainment. The laughs and giggles from the children make it worth every last penny! Thanks again!”

The Amazing
   Mr. J ON

Thank You, Cape Breton!❤️🙏IMAGINE: Your little 3 year old boy has just been diagnosed with a rare eye cancer.😪 You repeatedly have to fly to another country (from Croatia🇭🇷 to Switzerland🇨🇭, where you don't speak the language, plus have to take time off work), for specialized operations, plus multiple regular follow ups. Heartbreaking.💔 To help a childhood friend during their hour of need🙏, Busy Lizzy Sweets has been steadfastly baking bread and sweet goodies, plus they held a 50/50 draw (get this: today's winner even donated her winnings BACK to the little guy!) all to help little Marino and his family. Rita Campbell kindly donated the use of Millville community centre near Bras D'or, and with yours truly already on the Island for performances over the weekend, we decided to organize an extra fundraising Magic Show!🎩🪄 And all YOU big-hearted folks came out in big numbers to support!🤗We raised about $1000, and even more importantly for the hard-working Croatian🇭🇷 family, we are sending from Canada the gift of Love and HOPE.🙏🕊❤️🇨🇦Hoping now that little Marino👶🍼 will grow up to know that a whole kaboodle of kind Capers came together to help him.✨️ And for the family to know that they are loved.☀️As the Magical Cape Breton author Alistair MacLeod once wrote: "All of us are better when we're loved."🤗🎩🪄❤️🕊⭐️👍THANK YOU, Everyone.👍👍Here is Marino's story, and you can still help here: www.gofundme.com/f/krn5ce-3-year-old-boy-needs-your-help?utm_campaign=p_lico+share-sheet-first-la... ...
