I am known as the best children’s entertainer in Florida. I am also the only ventriloquist for children in Florida. I use several puppets in my show all with different voices and personalities. My shows are funny, fun, silly, exciting, engaging, and hilarious to say the least. I also mix in some kids magic; magic that is colorful and full of surprises; magic that makes the adults’ jaw drop and the kids scream. I create a new show every year for the summer reading program in libraries to align with their theme. And I create a special show for schools who want a specific message promoting reading or math or science. My show features ventriloquism, funny magic, marionettes, and audience participation that will have everyone laugh out loud, scream for joy, and just put a smile on their faces. I love making people happy and my entertainment does just that.

Roy Stone – Magician, Puppeteer, Storyteller & Author
Roy Stone has spent a lifetime bringing laughter, wonder, and imagination to children and families. Growing up in the colorful world of carnivals and circuses, Roy developed a love for showmanship early on—a passion that has grown into a full-time career as a family entertainer.
With more than 30 years of experience performing magic, puppetry, clowning, ventriloquism, and storytelling, Roy knows how to capture an audience’s attention and keep them smiling from start to finish. His shows are filled with larger-than-life characters, interactive puppet sidekicks, dazzling illusions, and hilarious surprises—all wrapped in heartwarming stories that remind kids of the power of imagination and the joy of being themselves.
Roy is also the author of eight children’s books, including the popular Ally Kazam series, which follows a magical rabbit with sparkling ears who learns that being different is a strength. These stories not only delight young readers but also inspire the themes of creativity and acceptance that flow through Roy’s live performances.
In addition to performing and writing, Roy is the creative mind behind JamStone Magic, where he designs and builds original props and illusions used by entertainers around the world. This blend of craftsmanship and stage artistry means his own shows are not only magical but uniquely tailored, with custom puppets and props you won’t see anywhere else.
Now based in Ocala, Florida, Roy brings his signature mix of magic, comedy, storytelling, and literary inspiration to schools, libraries, parties, and special events across the region. Whether making a puppet spring to life, weaving a funny tale, or performing a jaw-dropping illusion, Roy’s goal is always the same: to create unforgettable moments of wonder and laughter for kids and families.
