 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired David to provide entertainment and to emcee our annual Awards Banquet in February. He did an amazing job, was very professional, took the time to learn about our audience and was both impressive and funny while on stage. He performed close-up magic during our cocktail hour and then stage magic during the program on stage. The attendees loved him and he was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him! After the event he took it upon himself to mingle at the after-party (not part of his contract) and did more magic/hypnosis there. Thank you David! - Danielle Fournier, ACEC California

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were fortunate enough to have David perform at our annual summit, which brought together approximately 250 physicians, executives, pharmaceutical partners, and medical device leaders. As you can imagine, that can be a tough crowd. Although, to be fair, many of our urologists do come equipped with an excellent sense of humor. Leading up to the event, there were definitely a few raised eyebrows about adding a magician to the agenda. Within minutes of David taking the stage, those doubts completely disappeared. I received more positive feedback about his performance than almost anything else at the meeting, probably only second to our created music video.. and maybe the bourbon selection. The show was outstanding. He is incredibly funny, personable, and has a remarkable ability to read a room full of highly analytical professionals and keep them fully engaged. David, thank you a million times over. You have a true gift, and you made our summit unforgettable.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David is an excellent entertainer and magician! We hired David to mingle in the crowd and perform close up magic at a Masquerade Ball hosted for UChicago Graduate Students. We were so impressed by his professionalism, skill, and adaptability! We have a large crowd for these events - almost 500 people, and I think David did a great job of managing to do perform for a variety of people. I had the opportunity to see some of his tricks close up, and they blew my mind. He does a great mix of magic and comedy, and everyone at the event couldn't stop talking about how great his performance was. We were very pleased by David's ability to get people into the swing of the event - the balls we throw usually start out slower, and his close-up performances were so great for helping to break the ice and energize the crowd. I cannot recommend David enough!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve hired this magician for our holiday party multiple years in a row, and that alone should say a lot. Every single time, he manages to bring fresh material, great energy, and genuinely impressive magic that keeps everyone engaged—from skeptical adults to people who swear they “know how the trick works.” He’s professional, easy to work with, and reads the room perfectly, making the experience feel personal rather than scripted. Our guests still talk about his performances long after the party ends, and he’s become a highlight of our holiday tradition. If you’re looking for entertainment that’s fun, memorable, and consistently excellent, you honestly can’t go wrong.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David Ranalli performed at our company Christmas party during a snowstorm and absolutely knocked it out of the park. He did fantastic magic at the tables during happy hour and delivered a super engaging, entertaining performance for our group of about 50 people. It was perfect – and everyone is still talking about it! David was also incredibly easy to work with and communicated clearly both leading up to the event and on the day of the party. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend him.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David Ranalli brought a fantastic night of close up magic to our group of about 45 at our company's holiday party. Strolling from table to table, each small group had a blast. You had the entire room laughing, amazed, and fully engaged from start to finish — no small feat given the very festive levels of holiday cheer (and the open bar!). The mentalist show for the whole crowd really blew everyone away to top the night. Your energy, timing, and ability to adapt to the crowd made the night truly memorable.
