Performance Reviews!
George performed for both our Independent and Assisted Living Residents as well as our Memory Care Residents. He had everyone laughing throughout the whole building and knew how to interact with the audience and
made sure they felt part of the show.
-Harmony at West Ashley-
His personality was delightful! The many characters he performed all had their spotlight. The tricks were great and the delivery was excellent. Our residents enjoyed the laughs! Can't wait to have him back again!
-Benton House-
Fantastic! He worked with our preschool and toddler age classrooms. Extremely fun and interactive. He had the children up and participating and they LOVED IT! They truly enjoyed this experience, and the staff thought he was awesome and hilarious!
We would definitely have Mr. George back!
-St. James Day School-
The inmates were engaged and thoroughly entertained
by Mr. Younts' magical effects, acting and poetry.
-Lieber Correctional Institute-
Incredibly entertaining incorporating acting, props and magic
to break Shakespeare down in a way that helps us all understand
the language better. Funny, insightful and educational.
We LOVED it!
