We hired Robert for our special birthday party and he was such a delight! Robert's friendly and humorous demeanor (and his magical superpowers) made the night so fun! Robert is a great communicator, informative and thoughtful from booking right through to the event - he even stayed longer than planned and made our birthday very special for us and all our guests. Highly recommended!!!! - Dan - 11 Jan 2026

We thoroughly enjoyed being entertained by Robert at my Mum’s 90th birthday lunch party. Friends and family of all ages were enthralled by the magic and it got everyone talking. As well being a skilled magician, Robert does an amazing job of working a room of people, whether they are seated at tables or standing around chatting. I would not hesitate to recommend him for any type of gathering. - Aline R. - 23 Feb 2026

We had a wonderful time with Robert Bone as our speaker. We learned a little of the history of magicians, picked up some useful hints on how to cheat in cards and were amazed at his mind-reading talents. A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon! LEGS, Everton, Hampshire. - Margaret R. - 05 Feb 2026

We hired Robert for our company Christmas party and we were really impressed with his performance. Everyone was blown away by his close-up magic and mindreading and the reactions around the room were priceless. He mixed effortlessly with our guests and created a brilliant atmosphere all evening. Several people who were initially sceptical ended up following him around because they wanted to see more! Professional, engaging, and genuinely impressive.

Robert attended our company winter offsite and everyone was blown away by his abilities of magic. He did a mix of slight of hand card tricks and mind reading in small groups which was very entertaining. As a last minute request he changed his act to do a performance in front of the whole team (50 people) which I was very grateful for. We found Robert very professional, a good laugh and totally talented and versatile. His engaging, enthusiastic personality was awesome and I would defiantly hire him again and highly recommend him for small or large, private or corporate events. - Helen C. - 10 Dec 2025

We had Robert come and perform for a small group of us at my dad’s 70th, and he was absolutely fantastic. As it was a surprise for my dad he came straight from his car ready with a deck of cards for a trick as soon as he walked through the door! He was super friendly, funny, and completely blew our minds with his tricks. It was such an intimate setting, but he made it feel like a full-on show — loads of laughs and plenty of jaw-dropping moments. We were all sat there trying to figure out how on earth he did it — no chance. My dad was grinning from ear to ear the whole time, which says it all really. If you’re after something fun and memorable for a celebration, Robert’s your guy. Can’t recommend him enough! - Charlie M. - 02 Nov 2025
