Amazing!

Craig was absolutely brilliant at our wedding on 24.10.24. His communication was excellent leading up (even though ours wasn’t with how much we had going on) He was funny, entertaining and laid back. Perfect for our night. Thanks so much!

Such a great ice breaker & talking point

Sam was great at working the crowds, bringing people together and a brilliant ice breaker for people who didn’t know each other. I would absolutely recommend.

Amazing!

We had Kieran from Simply Unusual to perform magic for us at our festival themed garden party. He was amazing. Everybody was so amused by the tricks he was performing. He even interacted with the children with other fun stuff. His bubbly sense of humour was felt all around & I would definitely have him back for future events. Thanks again!

Slightly Unusual's Thomas Moloney

Thank you to Slightly Unusual for recommending Thomas Moloney, Magician for our Staff BBQ on 9th August. Thomas was with us for 4 hours, 3 hours of which was spent delighting and astounding everyone with his close up magic. Even 'the boss' was bewildered by his card tricks played out right by his side. His hour long magic show was enjoyed by children and adults alike; the children were screaming with laughter and so engaged in his performance it was a delight for their parents and grandparents to watch. We would certainly look to be entertained by Thomas at future events.
