  • "The children are in awe of Mike's magic and spend the remainder of the day talking about the show and trying to figure it all out."

    - Danielle Rupright (Children's Medical Center)

  • "Last year the campers were beside themselves with excitement, and it seemed like some of the kids never put their hands down hoping that you would pick them as a volunteer!"

    - Judie Thompson (Children’s Rehabilitation Center at Walton Rehabilitation Hospital)

  • "I wanted to say again how much the children enjoyed your show last week. The letter was "M" for the week and "Magic/Magician" tied in beautifully. My son is still talking about the show and trying to make a bunny appear out of a balloon. The other children are still thanking me for having you there. We were amazed too. It was great."

    - Richelle Carpenter

  • "Our employees gave him their undivided attention and a standing ovation when his performance was done."

    - Joy Wheeler (The Augusta Housing Authority)

  • "At one of our recent hospital parties at the Children’s Medical Center at MCG, Mr. Gilliland not only had the kids that were present hilariously entertained, but even the parents and nurses laughing uncontrollably at the magic act and funny phrases. During part of his performance, he called up kids to participate in his act and really got the crowd involved. Kids were amazed at his unexplainable tricks."

    - Lisa Smyrl (Starlight Children’s Foundation)

  • "Michael Gilliland was one of our featured guests during Kid’s Day at the 2001 Aiken Festival of Trees. His performance was a huge hit with the kids and parents! His performance was interactive and featured live animals as well as magic. In addition to his magical performance he twisted loads of balloon animals before and after the show, and provided a huge inflatable tiger bouncer that was staffed in a safe and professional manner. We enjoyed working with Michael and his staff, and look forward to working with him again in the future. Should you decide to partner with Michael for your special event, I think you’ll be pleased with your choice."

    Jill S. Brown, Chairman Aiken Festival of Trees
