When Magic Russ became a member of The Magic Circle, he swore an oath never to use his powers to force unsuspecting parents to leave dozens of 5* reviews for him on Facebook and Google.
Fortunately, they decided to do it anyway. Here's what some of them had to say:

My little girl, her friends and all the parents loved Magic Russ! I booked Russ after reading all his positive reviews, and he didn't disappoint! He was really friendly and clear in all initial communication, and very nice in person on the day. His show was brilliant - genuinely funny for both kids and grown ups. The party ran smoothly and I didn’t feel stressed; in fact, I really enjoyed it. I absolutely recommend Magic Russ!
Having seen Magic Russ at an event in the summer I felt confident booking his show for my daughter’s 6th Birthday party. He absolutely smashed my expectations & was fantastic! He was a true professional (checking in with me a few days before the event put my mind at ease meaning I didn’t have to chase him, and arriving at the venue even before me!) His show itself and his interaction with the children was fantastic. They were all kept fully engaged and had such a brilliant time. They thought he was hilarious and were all so keen to take part in his tricks. I loved how the adults were involved in this show too - not just stood at the back feeling like a spare part as with a lot of parties, but Magic Russ got them to take part and they were laughing just as much as the children. One of the best things about Russ’s show is that he takes full control of everything. He directs the children and adults and it’s one less thing for you to worry about which was truly appreciated. He even took care of singing Happy Birthday part which was super nice! He made my daughter feel so special and the complete centre of attention (which she would have really appreciated!) The box of magic tricks she won and her own puppet Dave the Wonderdog absolutely made her day. The balloon modelling was also great and something that the kids really enjoyed. This was our first ever big party and I’m so pleased we chose Magic Russ. I’m still getting messages from other parents now saying how much they (and their children!) enjoyed it & what a fantastic show Russ put on. For everything that Magic Russ does I feel his show is huge value for money and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him for future parties. A massive thank you again to him for making my daughters day so magical.
Cannot recommend Magic Russ enough!!
Russ made the whole birthday party fun and entertaining the whole way through. The kids thought he was hilarious and parents were entertained too enjoying coffee and tea in relative peace 🤣
Russ ensured the party ran smoothly with good time frames for everything from lunch time for the kids to birthday cake, a chance to sing happy birthday and to take photos !
If you’re wondering whether to book… DO IT!!!
Magic Russ was phenomenal from start to finish. He engaged all the children and adults for the full party, making it feel like a real show. From his light hearted child friend humour to his inclusive tricks and gags and engaging party games (with real prizes). Russ made a real fuss of our birthday boy. Every grown up commented on how fantastic he was. Highly recommended and would use again.
Having seen Russ at a previous party a few years ago, when the idea of a magician came up for a party he was the first one I thought of for a joint 6/7 year old party.
The booking process was very straightforward, Russ was very clear and communicative about the process and keeping in touch during the lead up and was a massive help on the day in keeping the party running smoothly and to time.
He had all the kids (and a lot of the adults too!) in stitches and the mix of games and magic had a lovely nostalgic feel.
We had so many compliments from other parents, we would highly recommend.
We hired Magic Russ for my son's 5th birthday party and he was absolutely fantastic. He arrived in plenty of time and gave me a detailed idea of how the party was going to run. The children thought he was hilarious (my son was crying with laughter at one point) and he did a great job of entertaining the adults as well. His experience really shone through, the whole thing ran very smoothly and it really took the pressure off me as host. Thanks so much again Russ for making the party such a success.
