Recently we’ve had the pleasure of working with Mike for our premiere black-tie event – The BrainChild Ball. Our Ball is themed differently each year and Mike was able to tie in his skills perfectly with this year’s theme “London Calling”.
Mike firstly provided entertainment as Austin Powers (together with Felicity Shagwell) at our VIP function for our largest sponsors and supporters. The guests absolutely loved this experience, the character interaction and the photographs from the event.
Mike then performed at the BrainChild Ball hosted in the Grand Ballroom at Crown Perth in September 2021, attended by 660 guests. Mike appeared firstly in character as James Bond as our guests arrived and secondly as Austin Powers (again with Felicity) for the second half of our evening. During the time he was able to interact with many of our guests.
We’ve found Mike an absolute pleasure to work with throughout both functions. His impersonation skills and character costumes are flawless, and he easily interacted with our guests. There is no doubt that his appearance at our Ball was a highlight for many of our guests.
Mike was also incredibly generous with his time. We were lucky to offer Mike the opportunity to join our VIP function - which gave him the chance to learn more about our charity and our cause.
Mike also donated his time as Austin Powers as live auction prize. This worked exceptionally well, as many of the guests had already seen him in action during the evening. This auction prize was therefore highly successful and added $5,000 to our total fundraising efforts from that night. We actually made more money by having him there!
We are excited to work with Mike again for our future events as he really does give everything his full time and attention and enhances our guests’ experience.
Kindest Regards

We had a very successful day and the crowd loved Austin… nothing but positive feedback throughout the day and so much energy.
We would actually like to enquire about cost to hire them again as the mad hatter with the red queen for NYE?
Kind Regards
Thanks
