"He creates moments of delight for the audience members as they watch the magic unfold, which sometimes occurs in their very hands while Klazinga is on the other side of the room."

My only negative would be to say that he spoke so fast he was very difficult to understand, but otherwise enjoyed the show

Andrew is clearly talented, but has a way to go before becoming a proficient showman. And he seriously needs to improve his delivery and diction - it's never too late for a few elocution lessons! We wish him luck.

The magician performed his tricks with skill but I feel like the impact of this illusions were reduced by his performance - he talks very quickly and seemed nervous and I struggled to hear what he said at times, so I didn't know what I was expected to see or what he was doing. A few times when he asked for audience members to participate, he spoke the instructions so quickly that they didn't hear him properly and so therefore didn't carry them out properly and it kind of ruined the act and made me feel embarrassed for him and the audience member on stage messing up the trick. If he spoke slowly and paused more, then I think his performance would be better. If he was more relaxed on stage then he'd connect better with the audience and would have perceived that the volunteer didn't understand what he said. It was obvious to other audience members that the person didn't understand, but Andrew wasn't paying enough attention to them, so the audience had to explain to him that the guy was doing it wrong.

Excellent and well done. Perhaps he could slow down a bit when speaking but great show.
