Peter Brook
I have known Donimo since the very beginning of his career. I have watched him work and grow. He was always an artist who as a magician could astound and astonish audiences and as a comic would have people rolling around with laughter.
John Row
Donimo engenders sympathy in his most apologist comic persona, and he is of course, Hysterically funny. A sort of cross between Stan laurel and Buster Keaton, Donimo is extremely gifted and very special.
Television Newspaper
We had the pleasure of seeing Donimo the silent comic performing his comedy routine. He presents a Hulot image of an act struggling with wonky props, accidents and innocent ineptitude, with every unfortunate happening a complete surprise to himself. This is a delightful routine of pure variety & Gentle humor.
Alan Saddler, Entertainment Critique
Donimo is the spiritual son of Stan Laurel and Buster Keaton, he is also a popular clown, heir to the tradition of the first great British clown

Joe Baker was highly entertaining and very engaging at our joint 40th and 70th birthday party. His magic wowed our guests and made the evening extra special. We would thoroughly recommend him.
Stephanie and Abi
Joe Baker (aka Donimo Magic) was very professional throughout, from booking to the event (fundraiser). My guests loved his magic and I highly recommend him as a close up magician and entertainer – warm, funny and genuinely astounding magic.
Jane Dow
Donimo did an amazing job at entertaining our guests at our wedding in March. He was brilliant and really went down a storm with our guests. The children & adults both loved the magic, it was a real ice breaker for those who didn’t know each other too. Thank you so much for adding something really special to our day!
