We had the absolute pleasure of hosting Michael Griffin, Escape Artist, at our Emerald Ball, and he exceeded every expectation. From the moment he took the stage, he commanded the room with professionalism, confidence, and a level of skill that left our guests genuinely amazed.
Michael’s performance was not only impressive it was engaging, polished, and perfectly suited for a high-end fundraising event. He knew how to read the crowd, build suspense, and deliver jaw-dropping moments that had everyone talking long after the show ended. His presence added a unique and unforgettable element to the evening.
Beyond the performance itself, Michael was a pleasure to work with professional, punctual, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. He truly understands how to elevate an event and create a memorable experience for guests.
We are incredibly grateful to have had Michael Griffin as part of our Emerald Ball
and would highly recommend him to any organization or event looking to bring something extraordinary, entertaining, and impactful to their audience.

Thankyou so much you and everyone on your crew were fantastic and just great people. Your Festival is great. I see why it won the Award it did as best fest
Michael was our evening entertainment for our dinner theater event. From start to finish, he was one of the most professional entertainers we've worked with. Easy going, flexible, and just an all around great person. On stage, however, is where he really shines. He has a true ability to captivate an audience. He was just purely entertaining to watch. We had so many great compliments, we really hope we can work with him again!

Thank you for choosing me as your escape artist, and for your positive review. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the experience and found it affordable. I hope you'll enjoy my work for years to come. Thanks again!
Michael performed for a birthday celebration and he was doing magic only inches away from us and we had absolutely no idea how, especially that close. Excellent show not to mention I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. I've been looking for a reason to have him come back and I would definitely recommend him.

The Odd Fellows lodge in Glenwillow Oh. hired Michael Griffin to preform at a charity dinner of 110 people. Michael was very entertaining and included the audience multiple times, keeping the attention of everyone. We were extremely happy to have him as a part of our very successful event.
