***FEEDBACK FROM RECENT PERFORMANCES***
“I am so thrilled that we booked Mr. Kipley for my son's 3rd Safari Birthday Bash! I couldn't believe how well he kept 20 children (and their parents!) entertained for 45 minutes. I loved the mix of singing, dancing, puppetry and audience participation. Several parents mentioned that it was one of the best shows they have seen and one of my friends has already booked Mr. Kipley for her next event! He definitely made our son's party unforgettable and I can't wait to book him again one day.”
-Jamie Tiplitsky, Deerfield, IL
“We will think of you again for sure. We had a board meeting last night and the members that were there expressed how impressed they were with your ability to keep the kids captivated!”
-Stephanie Kohn, Glencoe Social Club
“With an audience of active kids ranging from 3-11, we were not sure how well and how long the kids would sit still. Fortunately, our fears were quickly dispatched with a truly unique and dynamic performance. Whether it was Mister Kipley's interplay with his puppet friend, Charlie or his 'magical' interactions with the kids at the party, he never lost the kids' attention and provided great entertainment for the kids and parents alike.”
-Erin & Judd Hines, Glencoe, IL
"I wanted to thank you for performing and engaging all of the kids so entirely in the show. They LOVED it. Pippa and Toby are in love with lions and couldn't stop talking about how fun it was to hunt for lions in their house. You have a gift."

"Kipley did the birthday party puppet show and I thought it was worthwhile to mention how great he is. His show was so, so funny and our mixed-age group of kids all loved him. He kept a group of kids under the age of 8 completely mesmerized for 45 minutes."

"Mr. Kipley was awesome! The children were completely captivated by My. Kipley and his puppets. The show was so good that parents were even laughing and taking part. I would definitely hire Mr. Kipley again; he helped make my daughter's 5th birthday a day to remember. R.Audain"
"Yesterday we had our son's 4th birthday party with thirteen kids. We hired Kipley to do a puppet/music show, and he was FANTASTIC! He kept all the kids mesmerized and laughing for a full 45 minutes. He's a real professional--talented, fantastic with little kids, and easy to work with. " Susan Baer
