We booked Russ for son's 5th birthday party in January. It was a great party after which Noah said he felt really special! Russ entertained not only kids (and dealt very efficiently and nicely with few extra energetic kids) but adults as well! Noah took part in lots of the tricks and couldn't stop talking about them later :-) He even took Dave The Wonderdog for his Show and Tell in school. Even the younger kids enjoyed and stayed in one place. We would highly recommend Russ and his act to anyone!
