Arthur was Amazing from start to finish! I interviewed several comedians/magicians/mentalists to hire for our company Holiday Party. Amazing Arthur was my choice and it was a GREAT decision. Arthur is professional with the easiest/prompt communication. From the moment he began, my entire crowd of 50 people were on stitches. The mentalist/magic he performed was TRULY AMAZING. He was so equipped with humor and talent that he was able to keep the show alive for an entire 60 minutes. I haven't laughed that hard in years, nor have I ever been that amazed. Amazing Arthur was worth every penny. Don't hesitate- stop looking and book him today. All of our guests were very thrilled with the entertainment and we received nothing but enthusiastic/positive feedback about him. Even the restaurant where we held our event, watched the show and was truly floored by how talented Arthur. We took a risk in having this type of entertainment for a more corporate type of Holiday party, but we have absolutely no regret and will hire him again!

Our organization was so impressed with The Amazing Arthur Fratelli at our recent Holiday Celebration. Arthur was the perfect highlight for the evening, he was energetic, funny, he had a fascinating mindreading act, and he was simply a hit with the audience. His material was ideally suited for our professional crowd. As a bonus, Arthur further wowed us with some spontaneous after show mind reading and anecdotes from his travels. I should add that this event turned out to be our most talked about entertainer ever. The office was a buzz with chatter on Monday. I give Arthur credit for drawing such great reactions. As a 17 year employee with Ritchie Brothers Auctioneers, I give my company's highest recommendation to hire The Amazing Arthur as your entertainment, you will not be disappointed.

I have to admit that in talking with Arthur before the event I was a little skeptical about "The Amazing Arthur Fratelli" as the introduction talks about. But, he and the show were truly AMAZING. Our audience of salaried employees loved the show. He kept us laughing for more than an hour and trying to guess how what we were seeing was possible. Terry Frederic

Arthur was Amazing from the beginning to the end! I interviewed several comedians/magicians to hire for our company Holiday Party and he was the most professional and easiest/prompt to communicate with. Then, at the Holiday Party, somebody had unplugged his computer, which was a part of his show, but he was so equipped with humor and talent that he was able to keep the show alive until he was back on track. All of our guests were very pleased with the entertainment and we received nothing but enthusiastic/positive feedback about him. We took a risk in having this type of entertainment for a more corporate type of Holiday party, but we have absolutely no regret and will hire him again!

Arthur did a great job at my company's Christmas party last month. He kept everyone on their toes, was super entertaining, and honestly the best performer I have seen. He won over some of the biggest grumps in our office as well, which says A LOT! He was easy to work with. Booking was simple. He was on time. Everything you could ask for! Definitely will be booking him again in the future!

Arthur was the perfect selection for our conference entertainment! Throughout the entirety of his performance, Arthur held the audience captivated and entertained. His humor and wit had everyone laughing and eager for the next one-liner. By booking Arthur, it was a refresh to our conference entertainment and had everyone raving about him and the conference. Leading up to the event Arthur was great at working with us and the venue to see everything was ready for his performance. He arrived early and following the show allowed our event to finish before tearing down. Not only was Arthur great to work with, but the team at the MidAmerica Speaker Bureau was outstanding in helping us select the perfect performer and really took the work out of the process allowing us to focus our attention on the other aspects of our event.

We wanted to have an entertaining night that was fun and was inclusive for everyone at the event. We hired the Amazing Arthur for a meeting and were impressed with the video and testimonials that were on his website. The promotional materials that are on the site while accurate did little to depict the truly wonderful evening that we enjoyed. The evening was very enjoyable for all and they were still talking about the next day. Arthur was very engaging and professional during the whole evening. I would highly recommend Arthur and there are now plans to book Arthur for an upcoming corporate event.

My name is Phil Savidge and I have been responsible for arranging entertainment for our annual Holiday Party for the last 12 years. In those 12 years I have struggled to find the right entertainer to hold the interest of a diverse age group of individuals, which is not always easy. That was until 3 years ago after contacting the Amazing Arthur. Arthur's incredible wit and ability to connect with his audience allows him to create a high powered show for both the young and old. Arthur's shows are professional, upbeat, and most of all family friendly. Arthur's multiple talents (hypnotist, magician, and comedian) allowed me to schedule him for three consecutive years without a repeat of any previous performance, and will allow me to continue to schedule him well into the future. If you are looking for a high energy, very unique, professional showoff I highly recommend you contact Arthur Fratelli; you will be completely satisfied!

We used Arthur for our 2022 post prom and he was fantastic! The kids all gave him 5 star reviews, which is very rare. He was very communicative prior to the event, arrived early for set up, and kept the crowd engaged throughout the entire performance. We highly recommend hiring Arthur and hope to bring him back in future years!
