Mike’s card tricks were outstanding. I had never seen someone live do some of the tricks he did. His other tricks were good as well. Mike was a real treat and made the party. Adults do not usually get to see a magician so it made the party special, Mike was a lot of fun and did a great job. Friends who attended the party have told us they are going to use Mike for parties of their own.
