We had four Star Wars performers for a school assembly. The performers were punctual, professional, and they handled a large group of kids with ease. The act included plenty of kid-​participation and excellent humor. 190 satisfied customers here!

This is our second year with a party featuring ActionEvents LA performers. Last year was Darth Maul & Anakin. This year Darth Vader and Luke (Jordan). It was perfect from start to finish. The actors are such pros, they know exactly how to engage the kids — how to soothe the nervous ones and calm the sugared up/​overexcited ones. The parents were charmed and the kids were riveted.
Personally, I’m hoping my son is still into Star Wars next year because it’s a complete sure-​bet for the perfect party.

I couldn’t have been more blown away by the two knights that came to my son’s 6th birthday party. They were professional, kept the children’s attention the entire time, had the adults laughing and kept the party rolling.
My son is really into knights and the whole medieval world and these two absolutely brought it to life for him. My son can sometimes melt back into a crowd and the knights did a great job of making sure it was his special day, while also involving all of his friends too!
Couldn’t give a higher recommendation!!!

So the day was amazing. Today was my son’s 6th birthday party. I booked Ash and Misty. They were great and kept the kids entertained. I think it was the best money spent on a birthday for him. He loved it and so did all 15 of the kids. Even the parents enjoyed it. Thank you very much.

I have been meaning to write a review for a while. My son’s bday was in April and we had two ninja turtles come to our event and they were awesome! They arrived a bit late which they called ahead of time to let us know but made up for it with more time at the end which was so nice. They put on a great and interactive show with the kiddos and made my son feel extra special on his birthday. Great all around and received so many compliments on how great the entertainment was from our party guests. It was so fun!

Just had our son Luke’s 1st birthday party at the park, and we booked Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader for the kids’ entertainment! I am very satisfied with the results and everyone said it was the coolest birthday party they’ve ever been to! My son Luke was not scared of Darth Vader at all and they were sooooo funny, the kids didn’t stop laughing! Thank you guys for doing this! Great job!

Action Events LA did it again! I have used this group 4 times on different occasions within the last 12 months. Never gets old. At our Independence Day picnic last year, our guests were treated to a swordfight between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. In October of 2014, pirates were a big hit at our networking meeting for healthcare professionals from the South Bay, Long Beach, Los Angeles and more. This year, our Independence Day barbecue was again invaded by pirates much to the delight of our seniors, their adult children, the grandchildren and the great grandchildren. Next year’s event is already in the planning stages. And yes, Action Events will be part of it again.

Jack and Wiley’s park birthday party was a huge hit thanks to obi-​wan, princess lea and of course Darth Vader! Twenty, five year olds were kept entertained and in awe for over an hour. So professional, so funny and great fun for the kids and adults. The costumes were great. So much more than we had ever hoped for! Thank you so much!

I just want to write a note of thanks for yesterday’s party. The ninjas were AMAZING — all of the parents were impressed with them. They were funny and energetic, kept the kids engaged and just all around rocked it. The birthday boy felt so special and the space was perfect. We had a blown out tire on the way to the studio and the event coordinator, Gowrie and the ninjas worked around our hiccup and still managed to keep everyone entertained until we got there and even made a way for the birthday boy to make a grand entrance. Thank you, thank you for all of your help in putting this special day together for him. We would recommend action events LA and the swordplay studio to all of our friends!

We had three Power Rangers for my daughter’s 5th birthday and they were AMAZING! The kids had a blast. The adults were riveted. And, the three Samurais were so incredibly easy and helpful. I can’t say enough about them… I will hire them every year from now on:-)

These guys are amazing! I booked two ninjas for a six-year-old’s birthday party and they entertained the kids for a solid, action-​packed hour. The costumes were professional and these guys were obviously trained in martial arts. Either that or they were freakishly athletic. They were prompt and good at coordinating the ninja «surprise» attack. The only slightly negative thing was they had a comedy bit about beheadings (and they WERE dressed exactly like ISIS terrorists) and all the parents were like, «Yikes!» so maybe they should revise their routine to fit current times. Overall, it was excellent entertainment and value.

We gave our son’s a 5th and 9th Birthday party TMNT and found Action Events thru google. We booked Ninja Turtles Leonardo and Donatello and I must say they did an amazing job! The kids and the adults were so entertained. They were on time and very nice to everyone. The best part was that they were definitely in character from entrance to ending. They were able to manage 20 or more kids without a problem. They made our party Turtle-​ly Awesome and the kids will remember them forever!!! Thank you Gowrie for coordinating and the Action Events LA TMNT team!

We booked The Ninja Turtles Leonardo and Donatello for our sons 4th birthday party on December 20th and all I have to say is everyone had a blast. The experience from the beginning was good from when I booked to following up with me the week before the party.
The kids loved it the Ninja Turtles were awesome. They arrived on time and I even received a courtesy call to let me know they had arrived. They were very professional and did a great job with the kids. They were very patient with the little ones and the ones that weren’t following instructions. They did a fantastic job staying in character I seriously felt as if I was dealing with the true Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. My son loved it and said it was the BEST party ever. I was very pleased with their service they had everyone even the adults entertained and made the party great. I would totally recommend Action Events and rehire them for my son’s next birthday party. I had some of the guests that were here asking me for the information as they are interested to hire for their kids birthday party, just comes to show how much everyone enjoyed it THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

«Best. Party. Ever.» That’s what my 6-​year-​old daughter said half-​way through her Indiana Jones birthday party today. We decided to have our party at the Swordplay LA studio and it was great. Easy to get in and set-​up and even easier to clean up and just go home when you’re done. The actors were GREAT. We had Indiana Jones and the Cairo Swordsman (who stole the show.) But both guys were fantastic and the kids loved the. Booking the party was a piece of cake thanks to Gowrie. We did it all via email and her instructions made the party a breeze. All the kids had a blast. I highly recommend having a treasure hunt at the end of the party. The kids loved that. We plan to be back next year.

I love this company! I first found them when I was looking for Star Wars characters for my daughter’s 6th birthday. We had Padme, Luke Skywalker and Darth Vadar. My daughter is a Star Wars freak so I was really surprised when she began to cry at the sight of Darth Vadar. Both Padme and Luke were able to talk her down and defeat Darth and bring him back to the good side. Her face lit up when she received the special Jedi medallion they had for her.
I also love this company because they have a Jedi Summer Camp. My daughter was in heaven the whole time. Normally when I drop my daughter off somewhere I get some tears, or «but Mom I’ll miss you.» Not here. When I dropped her off she waived goodbye with a smile on her face. She can’t wait to go to Jedi Camp again. We live in West Hills, that’s not close to Burbank. But she loved it so much I would happily make that drive again.

We just moved to our neighborhood two weeks ago and I needed to plan my 4yo son’s birthday party. He is really into Jake and the Neverland Pirates, so we hired two pirates from Action Events. The booking was so easy. Gowrie asked all the right questions and made sure the guys knew that Lincoln loved Jake. They added tidbits of facts and details from Jake into their story line. It was FLAWLESS! Tony and Jason were our pirates and I am certain we got the A team. They were so professional, easy going, and absolutely amazing with the kids. They captivated each and every guest from age 2 to age 42. The adults could have sat back and had conversation the whole time, but many of us were so caught up in the entertainment, we joined in on the fun. The kids were cracking up and entertained the entire time. We had the party at our neighborhood park and they commanded the space, had the kids all over the place. It was pirate birthday party madness! Lincoln, the birthday boy, was convinced they were real pirates.
I was in a jam… just moved… in over my head in boxes… had a party to plan in less than a week… and with one phone call my entire party worries disappeared. Truly I put all my eggs in one basket, and it was the RIGHT basket! Thank you Gowrie! And thank you Jason & Tony! (I mean Cashew and Captain Greenbean!) Lincoln will remember this his entire life. I’m certain of it!

My friend and I were planning our sons’ joint birthday party when I saw a segment on a local program featuring the studio. I looked up the site, emailed Gowrie and voila «Jedi Academy» would welcome in our sons’ 6th and 7th birthdays.
The day arrived and Matt and Dustin — excuse me, Hans Solo and Darth Vader — showed up and the rest is sure to be a large part of our boys’ history. These two professionals not only get into character, I saw them practicing their sword fighting in our driveway, they actually like kids and are stellar with them. The adults were as rapt by the performance as the kids because Hans and Darth threw in antics for our amusement too.
After taking their Jedi Oath, the boys were wielding sabers and exhausting themselves (exhausting kids is the goal of every children’s party I throw) running around our living room and yard. There were two scraped knees (there has to be a little blood and a bump or two or it isn’t a party) and every kid left smiling and sweaty. These folks are professionals and assure a fun time for all.

The previous reviews do not lie… these guys are fabulous! Hired 2 ninja to entertain the kids for an hour and a half at my son’s ninth birthday party. From start to finish, they were professional, funny, and put on a great show for the kids. Both the kids and adults were completely mesmerized by their performance. You definitely get your money’s worth (and more). My son got an honorary medal for «defeating» one of the ninja in a fencing battle. The theatrics were fine for the older kids, but some of the little ones in attendance (i.e., 5 – 6 year olds) were a bit intimidated and didn’t participate. That was okay with me. I expected that, but just a tip that the longer performance is better suited for older kids.
I’ve seen so many types of kids party entertainment over the years and this was by far, the highest-​quality and most professional I have ever experienced. The ninja were dressed authentically from head to toe. They arrived early and started their performance exactly on time. This was a huge relief for me. LIke I said, they are extremely professional.
I recommend them highly and can understand why they receive consistently stellar reviews. One of the parents told me that she was so impressed that she was planning to hire them for her son’s next party.
Thanks so much, Action Events LA! You were the highlight of the party and made my son’s birthday a day to truly remember.

A Star Wars themed Jedi party at a Fencing Studio was really unique!
SwordPlay Fencing Studio was the setting for a birthday party for our friend’s son who was turning five years old. When we walked in the warehouse/​studio one of the SwordPlay instructors was dressed as Luke Skywalker. After all the kids arrived Luke took some time to talk to the kids and explain the Jedi dos and don’ts. The Jedi light saber birthday party is a good way for young kids to learn the art of fencing in a really fun format.
When Darth Vader appeared through the door in full costume I think that had everyone’s attention. The kids and adults were entertained as Luke and Darth interacted and then they instructed the kids on various things. Once they had gone through the safety instruction the kids were given their own light sabers. I think the instructors did a great job because I didn’t witness one mishap. There was one rascally little kid who walked toward me and was acting like he was going to hit me over the head with his light saber, but he changed his mind thank goodness.
If my son was five years old I would definitely think about having a birthday party here. Heck, I wouldn’t mind taking a few fencing classes here myself.
