We've been in business in the Santa Maria and San Luis Obispo, California area since 1990 providing quality entertainment for families, companies and schools. Our success comes from our reputation of being both professional and easy to work with. Our goal is to provide a pleasant experience during the planning process of an event in addition to our performance being thoroughly enjoyed at the event itself!
This is the reason so many customers hire us over and over again. Because of the variety of entertainment we can provide and the numerous settings we can perform in is the reason we have adopted the slogan of "Entertainers For Every Event."

Services
Magician, juggler, clown, balloon artist, face painter, an entertainer performing a singing telegram, a mime, Spiderman, Santa Claus, Easter Bunny and Elmo. Information about all of these entertainers can be found on this website. Besides being age appropriate, these comedy magic shows are mind boggling, high energy and fun!
Maybe it's wondering if the juggler is going to catch himself on fire with those flaming torches he's tossing in the air!. The bottom line is the same: people were entertained, volunteers were used and a memorable experience was had!. Paso Robles to San Luis Obispo and onward to Santa Maria and Lompoc, our jugglers have become a favorite on the Central Coast of California. For years crowds enjoyed our street performing routines on Thursday nights during the Summer at the Farmer's Market in San Luis Obispo.
We can also be hired to do Glitter Tattoos which are a hit for just about any age group. High School Grad Nights and Sorority Parties just love Glitter Tattoos! Face painting selections range from cheek art that is small and glittery, to whole deluxe faces. Some of the whole deluxe faces ares the cat, clown, princess, tiger, butterfly, pirate, robot, Spiderman, skull, Power Ranger, Batman, camouflage, Barbie, cheetah, Dalmatian or even Pikachu! Besides being skilled artists, our face painters are great entertainers who interact well with children and adults of all ages.
Whether it's a birthday celebration in Santa Maria, a going away event, or a retirement party in San Luis Obispo, our Singing Telegrams are perfect for the occasion!. Before the event takes place, we get inside information about the person the telegram is for. We'll call this person the "celebrity".

Jim did a singing telegram (in a jester costume) for my son's 50th birthday who lives in Arroyo Grande. I am in Texas and we coordinated everything through email and it went seamlessly. His presentation was great and my son's whole family got many laughs out of it. Jim personalized the message via information we had given him in a very comical manner. I would highly recommend Jim for varied enhancements that he offers for any event.

We had Jim from A-1 Talent as a balloon artist at our son's birthday party. The kids absolutely loved it! He has a lot of neat things he can make. The party favorite was a sword and holster. The kids had a great time swordfighting and if one popped, Jim just made another. He was on time, brought his own easy-up for shade and was friendly and patient with the kids. I highly recommend him.

I had a Industry event and needed entertainment extremely last minute, hours before the event! I found A-1 on yelp and figured what do I have to lose? Jim was so nice and such a big help, he set up face painting and balloon artist as well as a caricature artist just in the nick of time, and they were a huge hit at the event! The line never stopped for the caricature artist and everyone had a blast walking around with their balloon hats and face paint. Thank you A-1 talent for making my event such a success!

Jim and his crew were awesome! We hired them for relay games, carnival games, and craft tables for our company picnic. Jim was very nice and accommodated us even at such short notice. They arrived at our venue early to setup and were all ready to go when our event started. They were very patient with the kids and knew how to engage/entertain them all throughout the day. Kids and parents alike had a blast at our picnic because of these guys!

I'm so happy to be the first review. We used the company for our twin's 6th birthday party and they certainly did not disappoint! Jim the talent coordinator was patient, pleasant, and personable. We selected Heather the face painter and balloon sculptor. She arrived early and full of energy and grace. In one hour she was able to create personalized face paints and balloons for a dozen children. We look forward to hiring them for parties in the future.
