“Eric showed up on time despite a last-minute request at a busy Venice bar. He tailored his performance perfectly for the venue, working tight corners and entertaining small groups throughout the night. He even included a special trick for my sister’s birthday. A few of his tricks are still messing with my head a week later! Highly recommend Eric.”
