How'd he do that?

| 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! | ||||||

| 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! | ||||||

| 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”. | ||||||

Absolutely Amazing

| 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. | ||||||

Fun Evening with a Professional Magician

| 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. | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

| Joe turner is by far one of the most accomplished magicians I have ever been entertained by. He was funny and his magic was one night I never will forget. The crowd loved him. I would suggest anyone who likes magic to see Joe Turner. You will have a great time. | ||||||

What a professional!

| 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! | ||||||

Among the best I've seen in 40 years of showbiz

| I have been in show business for 40 years, and I have never had a more enjoyable evening at a one-man show than I did at the one Joe M. Turner put on. His show was magical, entertaining and relaxing. His kindness and sincerity to the audience made everyone - both in the audience and the ones he selected as assistants from the audience - feel relaxed and at ease. This show is not only for magic lovers, but for all of us who want to get away from this crazy mixed up world. It’s by far the fastest hour in the entertainment field and one show you will want to see more than once and one that you will talk about for days afterwards. Joe, my guests and I thank you for a wonderful evening. | ||||||

| I've been a fan of Joe's work for many years, but have never had the opportunity to observe a complete show. It was a delight (and no surprise) to discover that the show was filled with strong magical effects, mentalism, manipulation, audience assistance, and music. Joe himself was cordial and charming, obviously enjoying himself along with his audience. The library location was relaxed and intimate. And where else can the public see a good magic show? | ||||||

Shenanigans Rocks!

| I recently attended the fantastic show "Shenanigans" in Buckhead, Atlanta, GA! What a delight. Shenanigans is presented in an intimate "library/cabaret" style which made for a very comfortable experience. I laughed, I was amazed, and just greatly entertained! Mr. Turner's magic was not only perplexing, but he made me smile while I was being amazed! Not only does the show delight, but Mr. Turner takes the time to talk with the audience and make them feel like THEY are part of the show. In fact, they are! Varying between set pieces and amusing bits of audience participation, we got to feel like we were important to Mr. Turner, and that he truly wanted us to be part of the show, too. Joe M. Turner does a great job at "Shenanigans", you will be thoroughly entertained, but, most importantly, you'll walk away feeling like you've met a new friend who you will want to visit often. | ||||||
