Bill Blagg
To say that Bill Blagg has had a magical life would be no exaggeration. He received his first professional magic book from his great-grandfather, which eventually led to building magic props with his dad. These early beginnings paved the way for what is now known as The Magic of Bill Blagg.
Today, Blagg is one of the nation's top touring illusionists. His theatrical brand of magic thrills thousands of people every single year. Blagg's live performances leave people in complete disbelief as he creates the impossible in a way only he can do.
Blagg prides himself in performing new, never-before-seen illusions, such as the world's only rideable hoverboard. He is also known for instantly teleporting across theaters, squishing his body from 6 feet to 6 inches tall, passing through the blades of an industrial fan and much more!
Blagg constantly receives standing ovations from those who experience his one-of-a-kind talents. He looks forward to sharing his blend of magic, personality and performance with you!
