Very sociable and attentive

Darren went around the whole of our guest list and performed a great range of baffling card tricks, watch for the balloon one and his wallet reveal. Great value more than we expected.

Darren was extremely good on the night. Arrived on time and went into action straight away. Mixed in with my friends and entertained them marvellously. Many people utterly amazed by his magic. Well worth having him as one of the highlights of the evening. Many thanks to him for his great work.
