Kuya Mau with Maui the Ostrich

The 7th birthday of my niece is coming up! Normally here in the Philippines, the 1st & 7th birthdays are the one we focus the most. So I was tasked to find a magician for her upcoming party. Of course, I seek the help of our old trusty best friend, Google. A quick search of magician philippines on the search tab, revealed a lot of results.

Teo the Jazzman.

One of them is Maurice Kuya Mau Supetran popularly known as Kuya Mau. I first saw him on a Facebook friend's photo album, so I'm quite familiar with him already. According to his Facebook profile, he's not just a magician but also an expert ventriloquist and an experienced puppet master. Kuya Mau is also a member of a popular magician group here in the Philippines, MAGFI (The Magicians Foundation Incorporated.)

Lolo.

Kuya Mau's puppet show consists of six characters Lolo, Momoy, Spongebob, Barney, Shorty the Orangutan and Teo the Jazzman. This is perfect for my niece' birthday since most of her guest are kids around her age. I'm sure they will never get bored with this puppet shows. Aside from the characters mentioned above, another crowd favorite is his puppet, Maui the Ostrich. Can't wait to see it live.
