Best magician I've seen, best entertainer I've seen and best show I've seen at Fringe 2023... and I saw a lot of shows! Took my 2 girls, 4yo and 2yo - there was enough visually for my 2 yo to keep interested and my 4yo loved his robots! I was enthralled by his performance, stories, energy and passion. Fantastic and captivating magic. A must see! Definitely a 5 star for me!

A brilliant show, intriguing, humane and funny. And a children's performer who doesn't talk down to his audience.

Family magic show with robots. Lots of children but Mario was fantastic at keeping them engaged and the act was impressive and heartwarming for the adults too!

This is a great show for kids, but that adults can enjoy equally. Mario is an amazing magician, and he sends a really beautiful message during the performance. I loved his props and had a wonderful time watching this show. Definitively one not to miss this Fringe!

Trying to find shows for my picky 4 year old can be a challenge, but we finally hit the jackpot! Mario brings energy, a wonderful message, and amazing magic and robotic skills that I have never seen anywhere. I felt like a kid myself watching and everyone was completely immersed. He encourages kids to shout out and be themselves. Definitely go see it!

I went to see Mario with my 4 year old son yesterday and we had THE BEST time!! Mario is amazing with the children and takes time to come and see them at the start and end. Everything he does and says is for a reason and those reasons are to make you laugh, make you ‘ooh’ in amazement or to inspire you. My son left with a red nose (as does everyone) wanting to immediately try to replicate Mario’s amazing tricks. He hasn’t stopped talking about it. My heart is full…thank you Mario! 5 stars!

Loved this!! Kids aged 4 and 7 were completely engaged, as were the adults. So much interaction and great tricks. I also loved the message of 'do what you love, use what you have, and have fun'. Highly recommend!
