Corporate FunctionReviewed on August 24, 2018From Chicago, IL

Jim ran a gameshow for our small corporate outing (approx 20 people) and it was amazing. I was a little worried that it might be kind of cheesy but it wasn't at all - or at least it was in a good way. Everyone was so engaged - even the skeptics. It was a mixture of many game shows blended into one and had everyone on their feet (or on the ground) dancing and laughing and having a great time. It brought out a competitive spirit and everyone commented to me after - even the caterers - that he did an amazing job & they had so much fun. Thanks Jim!

I had such a great time performing for your group! Thanks again for having me! Hope to see you again soon! Jim Jensen

James was a perfect addition to the entertainment at our corporate party! He was very professional, extremely talented and brought great energy to the crowd. Unfortunately, I was running around the majority of the time, but I had people approaching me to compliment his performance all night. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone that needs mobile entertainment to their party. He was able to bring groups together to network because when they saw his performance from a far, they were drawn in. I will be hiring him for our next event.

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 30, 2010From Schaumburg, IL

We hired a Santa Clause (Santa Tom) to come to our family's Christmas Eve party. He called 10 minutes before he came, as Jim said he would, and he showed up right on time. He looked and acted the part with perfection. He was terrific with the kids, and even entertained the adults! My family is still raving about what a great Santa he was. Thank you Jim Jensen and Santa Tom for making that evening so special for all of us. Santa Tom - you are the best!

Jim was a great hit at our party, his entertainment was such a welcome change for a company Christmas Party. He was able to interact with every employee, either outgoing or quiet, and made everyone laugh! We have had great feedback from our staff. I would recommend him for any event.

Community EventReviewed on July 29, 2009From Chicago, IL

Jim did a great job! I've been running a camp for quite some years and its always difficult to get entertainers that are able to entertain ALL the participants! He pleased everyone from the 6 year olds, the 13 year olds and even our counselors (15-25)! He was also very accommodating in running his game show without prizes or points (our camp doesn't keep score!). The game show was absolutely great. Old songs, new songs, all of it was so much fun. Everyone was on their feet and having a great time. I would definitely recommend James for your event.

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 14, 2009From Naperville, IL

Awesome show. Jim came out yesterday to perform for our Cub Scout families. The kids and the parents all had a great time, Jim is great with the kids!. Jim does a great job of getting the kids and adults involved in his show. Many parents commented that they enjoyed the show and asked how we found Jim. Jim was great to work with through the whole process. I would recommend him to others and would certainly invite him back to our scout pack.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on February 28, 2009From Huntley, IL

We had Jim come to our house for our 8 year old son's birthday party. He was outstanding! The kids and adults were amazed and had such a great time. Jim was professional, funny, and extremely talented. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for great entertainment for any event. We know our son will remember this birthday forever and his friends will be talking about it for a long time. Thank you Jim for making our son's birthday so fun and memorable!

BanquetReviewed on February 24, 2009From Glendale Heights, IL

Jim performed for our Cub Scout Blue & Gold Banquet this past weekend. He entertained siblings as young as 2 to our oldest guest who was 90. He had a great show that kept everyone laughing and amazed. We would definitely look into hiring Jim again for another event. You won't be disappointed!

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 2, 2008From Ashkum, IL

James Jensen put on a GREAT performance for our Christmas party. Everyone from the great-grandparents to the youngest children enjoyed the show and many commented that this was the best show we've ever had. It was also fun for two of the children to go on stage and help with the magic tricks. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a magician.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on October 9, 2008From Northbrook, IL

I recently had a birthday party for my 8 year old son. 22 guests arrived (mostly boys) and James kept them entertained the entire time! Thank goodness! Every parent at the party (approx. 8) asked for his business card and commented how professional and creative he is. Don't take my word for it...on the way home I had a van full of children and they all agreed the party was GREAT and said everyone was going to write about the party during writers workshop the next day at school. It made it all worth it. Thank you James!

The Magician that arrived on time was very appropriate for our Cub Scouts, ages 1st – 4th grade, and their parents. He was entertaining and kept the scouts and parents interested all night. I will be using his service in the future for our scouting events.

FundraiserReviewed on March 15, 2008From Medinah, IL

Jim was willing to meet all requests that we had. He arrived in a timely manner and handled everything like a true professional. After my event I received several positive comments from my guests on Jim. Kids and parents had enjoyed his show saying his magic was fun to watch and that he made them all laugh. My event was for kids with cancer and these are the kids that Jim had to entertain. I think Jim too was enjoying himself and truely loving what he was doing. We had so many kids that Jim stayed a little over to see to it that everyone got a balloon animal or saw his tricks. I could not have asked for more from Jim. I highly recomend Jim for your next event.

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on June 21, 2008From Palatine, IL

Jim did an excellent show for our 2-year-old's birthday party. He did a music/game show as well as balloon animals. All of our guests, both kids and adults, got involved and really enjoyed the show. The kids especially liked dancing, winning prizes and getting balloon animals. It was the perfect event for our party. I would definitely book Jim for another event and highly recommend him!

Grand OpeningReviewed on December 27, 2006From Oak Park, IL

I was extremely impressed with Jim. He was professional. He was on time and was eager to meet our desires for the events. He went out of his way to make sure that we would be happy with the events. He enthralled our customers and employees. I will use Jim's services in the future and have already recommended his services to associates.

The Balloon Twisters were great and the kids loved them. The strolling magician entertained the crowd as well. We had over 600 attendees at our holiday brunch and everyone commented on the entertainment. Jim was very accomodating to us especially with all of our last minute requests. We will absolutely use him again in the future!
