In June, I had the honor to perform at a private party at the Troon Country Club in Scottsdale.  Afterwards, I received a thank you card in the mail, reprinted here with permission.  Thank you Connie for your kind words!

"Dear Shawn,
     You, personally, made my 75th Birthday Party a success!  Thank you very much!!!  You were a "hit"!
     I especially appreciate you meeting with me to go over the plan for the evening and your extra effort in learning everyone's names.  You are very talented and your magic was superb!  A great strength is your ability to sense and react to your audience and your wonderful interpersonal skills.  You are an extraordinary magician!
     Everyone was extremely impressed with your magic!  You provided wonderful, intriguing entertainment!  We all had so much fun with you!  Thank you very much for the fun, entertaining evening!  I will happily recommend you and give testimonials to your skill.  Thanks again!"

At the Magic Castle!

The Magic Castle!

In June, I had the honor of going to Hollywood, California and entertaining at the Magic Castle!  With my dear friend Tom Frank, we performed three shows a night in the Peller Theatre the weekend of June 6 - 8.  It all started at a session in February, 2012, in the desert north of Indio, where we discussed the idea of doing a show together at the Castle.  The show would feature the classics of magic, as taught to us by our mentors, with cards, coins, cups & balls, & linking rings... the stuff we make our living with today.  Finally, we shared one of the best stages in the world and lived the dream!

I have so many people to thank for making the trip such a fun success... Thank you to Jack G., Joan L. and the Magic Castle team (Sheila, Erin, Sabrina, Rose, Katie, Patrick, Steve, Brandon, Joey, Maurice, and Tom).  Thanks to some honored friends and guests who came to see our show (Perry, Lisa & Camilla K., Simon & Ginny A., Jonathan P., and birthday girl Alyssa B. with her fun friends).  Thanks to Makoto for the impromptu session on coins, it was great to meet him and learn a couple of new tricks.  Special thanks to Robb W. & Alfonso for their notes & feedback on the show.  Thanks to all the great audiences for the crowd love!  Most of all, thanks to Tommy and Polly for their friendship and hospitality at Camp Paradise!  What an awesome experience!!

Sir Shawn:  A quick note to thank you very much.  Your presentation was excellent and your weaving in legalisms was impressive.  Best of all, you’re improvisation on the bobble head was amazing! 

Best, Judge A

Shawn — we really enjoyed having you entertain at our dinner.  The dinner went very well and your performance was a great way to kick off the night.  There were lots of folks there who I’m sure won’t forget you when they do their party planning.  Take care and good luck.

Shawn,

I just wanted to say thank you for the tremendous job you did at our 2013 Christmas Party at Dave and Busters.  Our employees and guests loved all your tricks and you had everyone shaking their heads. I realize the space we had our party in (behind the bowling lanes) had some noise challenges but everything went off seamlessly, including the final performance. I particularly liked your interaction with the kids and your idea to pass out some Christmas bonus money to our employees through your tricks worked out great.  We were very pleased with everything and strongly recommend you and your services to anyone looking for a talented magician and a great performer.

Sincerely,

Thomas O'R.

Hi Shawn,

I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for the show you performed at my 60th birthday party on Saturday.  You were a huge hit and made my celebration very memorable!  You just don't know sometimes who you are getting when going off the internet, etc.  Boy did we make the right choice in hiring you!  If you need any referrals, please do not hesitate to call us.  Again, many thanks!

Regards,

Howard and Susie G.

Hey Dad,

Just randomly thought of you and how hard you’ve worked and how far you’ve come this past year or so.  You’re doing a really good job and I’m proud of you so keep it up.  Sorry we weren’t able to get together, hopefully another time.  Hope you’re doing well.
