Mike came to the Seabrook Library in January–I had originally booked him for our Halloween party, but Hurricane Sandy came through and then I was out of state. Mike was very flexible and accommodating. He provided a poster, was early and did his own set-up, and was generally just pleasant to deal with. He did a very very funny show that had the adults in tears as well as the kids. He’s heavier on the comedy than most magicians, and it worked well–his magic was great too. He had a younger crowd–3-9ish and did very well. It seems to me that this really is the best age range (his website lists 4-8 and that’s accurate).
We had Mike kick-off our February School Vacation week this year. The kids and their families laughed and had a great time from the moment the show began to the very end. Mike’s sense of humor is spot-on for the 4-10 year old age group and his magic will delight all ages. Mike is wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend him to any school or library. We will definitely be having him back at the Nashua Public Library.
We had Mike Bent for our Kick off to our summer reading program, and he was great, he engaged the kids and adults. Highly recommend!
