Captain Jack Sparrow, Johnny Deep Look / Sound a Like POA Simon Newton has portrayed Disney legend Captain Jack Sparrow (as played by Hollywood film star Johnny Depp in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise) at events across England and the World for many years as well as being a photo double for Johnny Depp himself in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. He has dedicated his time to perfect the look, mannerisms and the outfits as worn by the swashbuckling star, and of course the unique voice, and sharp wit! At many events vistors often walk away convinced they have met Johnny Depp. Simon has built up a reputation of being not only a perfect Captain Jack Sparrow impersonator, but also has the professional attitude and reliability you'd expect from a top class entertainer

Fortune Teller POA Fortune tellers dressed in gypsy costumes can read palms and tarot cards or interpret guests' fortunes through a crystal ball. Fortune Tellers are very popular for fun days and corporate events.
