We booked Dave for our annual staff party. It was a surprise for the team and they absolutely loved it. Dave made sure he went around every group at least twice and blew their minds with plenty of tricks. It was a fantastic ice breaker and team have been talking about it ever since. Would 100% recommend Dave and looking forward to the next opportunity to book him again.
