"Our Angels and Heroes Party attracts a large crowd (450 per session) of excited, energized pre and primary aged children and their parents and
we were after an entertainer that would engage this wide range of ages for 20 minutes, not an easy task! But Adrian was brilliant, from the 3
year old, to the parents and even grand-parents, all were captivated, laughing and thoroughly enjoying his show full of tricks, humour, and
skill. Skill in juggling, uni-cycle and his ability to interact with all ages with his humour in such a fun loving way, led to a fantastic show
that was the highlight of our party. Adrian exceeded our expectations!! Not only did he have his audience captivated for the two 20 minutes
shows, but he wandered round engaging with the crowds before the party begun, as they were lined up on the streets, during the party and as
they left. He worked solidly for over 4 hours!! From the very first contact of making enquiries, to the performing of the show, everything
went so smoothly, with no hic-cups along the way."

"Daddy, you're so funny!"
Emily Kirk, age 7.
"Adrian Kirk is a high-energy, committed performer who works very hard on stage to capture and hold his audiences of all ages.
His personality, especially the quick-witted, good-natured humour is complemented by outstanding technical skills.
He is also excellent to work with on a managerial level, communicating effectively and delivering what is promised.
I have no hesitation in recommending him to the many events and situations into which his talents take him."

Creative Projects Manager and Director of the Southland Festival of the Arts, Venture Southland

"Adrian Kirk, juggler and entertainer par excellence. I would recommend Adrian as a very accomplished performer, and someone who can deliver a strong message."
The late Sir Peter Elworthy.
"The show that you put on was fantastic and the kids and adults alike were engaged and entertained the whole time. Your energy and stage presence was fantastic and
your ability on your uni-cycle was just so good to watch. We would happily have you back again. It was so very easy to work with you. Thanks so much Adrian, you're
a legend."
