“Cranius performed a parlor show for about 100 students at my elementary school this week. He arrived well in advance of our contracted start time. He brought his own excellent PA system. He customized his presentation to include information and “effects” relevant to academic concepts we’d been studying at school. He is patient, kind, flexible, focused, professional, funny, and clearly enjoys his performance opportunities. I highly recommend his services.”

“Everything about Cranius and his performance was fantastic! We had him for about 50 high school kids plus 20 adults at a graduation party. He walked around and did probably 30+ up close mind bending performances for small groups while they socialized at the party. Some of the kids that arrived later had already heard thru text and Snapchat that a magician was there, so positive word traveled fast. Tricks astounded kids and adults. Cranius was humorous and engaging but did not interrupt or overbear to distract from a relaxing and pleasant environment. On top of that, Cranius arrived 30 minutes early to prep and be sure he was ready to go and was very responsive when we first made contact. Highly recommend Cranius for any similar party or social event.”
