Derek is absolutely AMAZING!!!! Never in my life did I think I would meet such a talented Magician that was so kind, caring and genuine. I hired him for my daughter’s first birthday and he did not disappoint. I was so nervous (and extra) with all of my planning because it was my first time and Derek was so phenomenal from start to finish. He was so patient with me, answered all of my questions and calmed down every single nerve I had leading up to my event. He showed up punctually the day of, and while I was extremely stressed out running around, he was very flexible which made the biggest difference ever. He allowed me to take care of pressing items, greet the guests, etc. and come back to him when I was ready. He did NOT at all have a “well you only booked/paid me from blank to blank” mentality which other vendors did. While he waited he walked around and talked to the guests and they all adored the one on one with him. And then the show - AMAZING! So fun and interactive. The kids LOVED him, and the adults?! We thought we had to resuscitate my Father-in-law because he was laughing so hard he couldn’t breathe. All around such a wonderful, kind Magician and human being. I will definitely use him again and if I ever hear the need for one again, “Derek the Magician” will be my go-to. I wish all vendors and People could...
Read moreAbsolutely AMAZING -- The Best Magician Ever! This was our second time hiring Derek, and once again, he completely exceeded our expectations!! This time, we had him perform at our daughter’s school for her birthday, and he truly made it a magical and unforgettable experience for every child there.
What makes Derek stand out is not just his incredible tricks (which left both the kids AND adults in awe!) but the way he connects with his audience. He has a special ability to engage all types of children—whether they were shy, bold, or full of energy, he made sure everyone felt included and amazed! Even better, he seamlessly wove in valuable lessons about kindness, making others smile, and the power of positivity. We also loved the added puppet [very realistic] assitant!
It’s rare to find someone who is not only a talented performer but also an incredible human being. Derek is all that and more! My wife and I were such big fans and we’ll stand behind him 110%. If you’re looking for a magician who will leave a lasting impression, look no further. We can’t wait to...
Read moreI've lost count how many times I've had Derek & his talents at my parties. He is a magnificent performer, awe inspiring magician & all around great person to boot! Derek has done solo shows many, many times for me as he is always requested year after year for our annual work event by my staff. He will perform "walk-around" for everyone during a cocktail hour type of thing & we upgraded to add a full on show performance on stage for the entire group. He always keeps our guests captivated & intrigued. I'd like to add also that on 2 other separate occasions for personal events my family & I had the pleasure of experiencing the wonders of the Derek & Randi-Lynn Show. This cannot be missed, the way Derek & his (maybe 11yr old?) daughter "work the room" is just remarkable. Don't get me wrong, Derek is fantastic, but she absolutely steals the show!! A sight to behold- Sorry to run on and on and on with this review but I truly hope you get the chance to witness the amazement!!
(P.S. -even if he won't tell me how he...
