How'd he do that?
Thu, Oct 25, 07   8:00 PM SherryRoedl Unspecified 60-69 Local Group of Friends
Joe thoroughly wowed his audience at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Buckhead recently with his captivating magic performance. Throughout the evening, we were constantly asking, "How'd he do that?" Joe is very good at keeping his audience engaged and mystified, as well as providing an exceptionally entertaining show. We all had a great time and look forward to seeing Joe perform again soon!

One of the Best Magician's that we've ever seen
Thu, Oct 25, 07   8:00 PM masakretrd Male 70+ Local Group of Friends
Joe has a very unique show. We had seen him perform recently at a house party, where one-on-one he performed card tricks, slight of hand tricks, etc. But his performance that the four of us attended at the Hyatt, in Atlanta, was something out of the ordinary. It's hard to put into words, the different routines that he performed, other than to say they were extraordinary, and he certainly held the attention and interest of everyone in attendance. We look forward to the next time he performs in the Atlanta area.........................we and our friends will be there!

Witty and great slight of hand

Joe is a great entertainer. His charm is witty and he his slight of hand is astounding. He often leaves you with the question, “How did he do that?” But if he told you it would not be “Magic”.

Fun, Fun evening.

For a great evening of fun entertainment you have to catch Joe Turner's evening of magic. How does he do that? He had us laughing, we were mesermerized and totally enjoyed the evening. In the words of the song, "Catch him if you can."

Absolutely Amazing
Fri, Apr 20, 07   8:00 PM DJSullivan Male 50-59 Local Group of Friends
Joe Turner never fails to amaze me. As often as I have seen him, he always does new things that for the life of me, I just cannot determine how he did them. There is no "slight of hand" it is more like "slight of mind" when he picks out cards or words on books mentally.

Extremely entertaining
Fri, Apr 20, 07   8:00 PM Susanabrams Female 60-69 Local Group of Friends
Joe's show keeps your attention from beginning to end and time seems to fly by while he is performing. He never embarrasses anyone he chooses to help with one of his "tricks" and all attending seemed to enjoy his performance. I would recommend this to all ages as those attending ranged in age from children to seniors. I would go back and take others there should the occasion arise.

Delightful!

I'd seen snipits of Joe's talent, but a full hour was engrossing. He presented his skill with professionalism, flair, personality and humor. You don't have to be particularly interested in "magic" to be thoroughly entertained.

Best Magic Show Ever

All nine of us thoroughly enjoyed the show and I don't think I have ever seen such great magic. Great entertainment and fun, fun, fun!

Fun Evening with a Professional Magician
Fri, Apr 20, 07   8:00 PM bsantamaria Male 60-69 Local Group of Friends
The show was parlor magic as opposed to using animals or extravagant illusions. The simple slight of hand tricks were truly amazing and their variety were very entertaining. What was most entertaining was the mental telepathy tricks with audience participation that guaranteed the privacy of each question put to Joe, however, that was most amazing and memorable.

I liked the show very much. I brought some friends, and we were ALL very impressed, both with Joe's performance as well as with Joe himself. He's a very classy, entertaining guy and I hope to see his show again.

"Shenanigans" entertains astoundingly
Thu, Oct 26, 06   8:00 PM dardley1 Female Unspecified Local Group of Friends
"Shenanigans" is varied, fast-moving, captivating, exciting and full of surprises. Just when you think Joe has flubbed a trick, he astounds you with its successful completion. I will recommend this versatile, talented gentleman to friends, and to my corporate clients. Molly Alexander Darden THE WORD MASON

Great way to spend an evening in Atlanta!
Thu, Jul 20, 06   8:00 PM patdar Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Joe Turner's Shenanigans is a deceptively entertaining return to the art of Parlor Magic for adults . Greeting spectators at the door to the lounge in an upscale hotel, Mr. Turner seems like a pleasant and unassuming fellow. However once the show starts, he becomes as polished and professional as any big city entertainer. Calling each member of the audience by name as he involves each in some entertaining diversion, Mr Turner combines deft sleight of hand skills with humor and reminicences of other magical performers. Magicians will enjoy his inside jokes and references as well as the personal spin he brings to some traditional presentations. Non-magicians will be outright amazed (as many were the night I saw the show)! For 60 minutes, Mr Turner mixes classics of silks, ropes, money, linking rings, balloons, and the amazing vanish of a spectator's finger ring with music in a well-rehearsed production, yet keeps it looking fresh and original. Even when a deck of cards makes an occasional appearance, it isn't for the usual "pick a card" effect". The hotel Library, where the show was held, lends itself to a feeling of intimacy, and the cabaret-style seating and bar service had everyone enjoying themselves, even during the pre-show wait. Consisting mostly of local couples and out-of-town visitors, the audience was friendly, receptive and appreciative of Mr. Turner's skills. After the show, Mr. Turner chatted with guests and even performed a private close-up effect before packing to leave for the evening. Mr. Turner has developed a strong following in magic-starved Atlanta mostly through positive (and well-deserved) word-of-mouth on Shenanigans. He should be commended for helping revive a neglected performance style in a fun, classy and affordable venue. If you're lucky enough to be in Atlanta for the one-night a month he performs the show, don't miss it.

What a fun night!
Thu, Jul 20, 06   8:00 PM sweetypie201 Female 20-29 Local Group of Friends
We had a blast! I've been a magic groupie for years, and usually hesitate to bring my non-magic friends to shows. This was the perfect evening and what a beautiful setting! I can't wait to see what Joe comes up with next. :-)

What a professional!
Thu, May 25, 06   8:00 PM Kenorama777 Male 30-39 Unspecified Unspecified
Joe was entertaining, funny, skilled and handled himself with all the poise and panache of a seasoned professional. Objects appearing and disappearing, reading people's minds, solid objects passing through solid objects... WOW! I was amazed! The audience howled with laughter and gasped in wonder over and over again throughout the entire show. Joe's magic was spellbinding and his connection with the audience was instantaneous and lasted long after the show was over. Nearly 45 minutes after the conclusion of the show, many people in the lobby were still hanging around and they were all asking the same question: "HOW did he do that?!" I give Shenanigans my highest recommendation. If you are in the Atlanta area, this is a MUST SEE. You will not find better entertainment at this price anywhere in Atlanta. It's just plain fun to watch!
