I had a great experience working with characters for hire.They were professional, punctual and I had fun doing this event, mike was nice and very charismatic he had me laughing the whole time. I look forward to working with characters for hire again, if I could give them more than 5 stars I would lol.

Very satisfied and would definitely use services again. As an event coordinator, most often we have to think outside the box and do so many different tasks at one time with so many moving parts. At the end, you can’t afford anything to go wrong and everything must be on point. Working with them was very easy and painless. You asked and it was received. They did an absolutely wonderful job from start to finish. Truly professional, a great actor, and our actor Nic the audience loved him. Nic was flawless and very engaging with our audience. He did a wonderful job. Happy Customer, Gladys Harrison, USPS

The company was very professional and was excellent with communication. I literally was on communication with them the whole time up until the day. It made me feel comfortable knowing they were just a phone call away. The job was fun and easy and I had a great time.

This is a very professional company, On very short notice they found me "Rihanna" for my husband's 50th Birthday Party. He was super surprised and happy! They did an exceptional job with costume and make up and bringing the entire performance together.Nick is very responsive and was there to help answer many questions. I would definitely use this company for an event in the future.
