" Rob Roy gave me the thrill of a lifetime! How often do you get to watch a man escape from a straight jacket while suspended upside down from a helicopter over 100 feet in the air? The launch of our inaugural festival in St. Catharines is something we will always remember - thanks to Rob. Throughout the festival up on his ladder, handcuffed and chained, he was a crowd favourite. And on the ground he's one helluva good person to work with. "
Kelly Daniels, Festival organiser
" LOVED IT! You put on a brilliant show that's funny, entertaining and above all professional. Big thank you to the two of you for organizing our Family Vaudeville show. The two of you did an absolutely amazing job with it. You really make a terrific team and are an absolute pleasure to work with. Would love to have you back "
Michele Schroder (Director of Entertainment, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada
" Rob is a delightful addition to any festival. Rob was professional, courteous, and more than accommodating. It is a true pleasure to work with him! The crowd absolutely adores Rob's show, and come back again and again to see him perform, begging for more. I can honestly say that Rob is by far the best crowd builder I have ever witnessed - the crowds over the weekend were never better than when Rob was playing the pitch! We look forward to welcoming Rob back in future! "
Stephany Peterson - Buskers on the Boardwalk Festival Director
" That looked incredibly scary! Well done! "
Alan Titchmarsh
" We hired Rob to perform a series of escapology stunts for us, including recreating Houdini’s famous strait jacket escape whilst hanging from a rollercoaster! He also performed at a press, media and celebrity event that was held to mark our season launch and the feedback from our guests was phenomenal. His performances were breathtaking and added a real wow factor – he even managed to get a few of the celebs in the strait jacket! "
Liz West, PR Manager, Alton Towers Resort
" Well done! You are the strongest link! "
Anne Robinson
" We have had the pleasure to have Rob with for us for the past year. Rob has help boost our revenue by 10% with his witty, clever and truly amazing show and has really made a brilliant contribution to our brand awareness. He is a great crowd pleaser from young children to adults with his laugh out loud humour and his ability to escape from a straight jacket in under a minute and a half. We would really recommend Rob to anyone thinking of hiring him as he is truly committed, professional and a absolute pleasure to work with. "
Max Ferreira, General Manager, Ripley's Believe It or Not! London!
