"No
one I've ever worked with in the Themed Entertainment Industry has the
human dynamo trait of Larry Lester. I've been a participant in a
number of projects dating from 1983 where Larry played a central role.
His ability to command every loose end into a completed, great
'Opening Night' always leaves me amazed."

"I have known Larry Lester for over 15 years and have been
privileged to work with him on some of his most exciting attractions.
He is considered the "father of the action theater
attraction," a staple of the modern theme park industry.
Specifically, he conceived and created the first permanent modern
stage attraction, "The Adventures of Conan," which utilized
actors, large animated figures and state-of-the-art special effects
integrated in a permanent theater venue at Universal Studios,
Hollywood. This attraction both demonstrated the feasibility of the
technology and verified the public acceptance of this type of show.
"Whether it has been 'motion based,' 'dark ride' or staged in an
indoor/outdoor theatrical venue, Larry has continued to push the
envelope for these types of attractions by continually searching for
newer technology which both enhanced the enjoyment of the guests and
improved the reliability of operation. I know of nobody better at
conceiving and creating a 'live action spectacular.'"

"We are now finished with our work for the 45-foot bronze lion at
the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino. With a 'one-of-a-kind' structure
such as this, coupled with a fast track schedule, there were many
challenges. Larry and the Lester Creative design team always responded
with prompt and economical resolutions to keep us all moving forward.
We enjoyed working on this project with you and sincerely appreciate
your cooperative attitude and professionalism."

"Larry Lester has developed vast expertise and experience in a
wide range of technologies applicable to the entertainment industry.
His extensive training and experience in live theater has additionally
resulted in a rare combination of creative and technical skills. It is
the blending of these skills and expertise, coupled with a team of
skilled artisans and engineers, that sets Lester Creative, Inc. apart
from other entertainment companies. The result is a group that applies
a hands-on approach to the work, from conception to completion,
affording clients the most 'Bang for the Buck.' It is this personal
commitment that guarantees the success of every Lester Creative
undertaking."

is exemplary. I look forward to our working together again soon."

"When the tough just get going, Larry's already got it done. When
the ball gets dropped by others Larry catches it before it hits the
ground. Some are Jack-of-all-trades and master of none. Larry is
master of all. Larry is to show production as Q is to James
Bond."
