To say that BILL BLAGG has had a magical life would be no exaggeration. From the moment he received his first magic kit in 1986, his world was never the same. After years of endless practice and persistence, Bill professionally launched his magic performing career in 1996, at the ripe age of sixteen. In just two short years of professional performance, Bill developed a stage presence that made him a stand out in the magic community, due in part to his off-the-cuff personality and his high energy performance style.

He chose to put his skills to the test in 1998, by entering the adult stage competition at the Abbott Magic Get Together in Colon, MI, which is also hailed as the magic capital of the world. Magic had been Bill’s life for over twelve years, he had performed hundreds of shows, and it all hinged on a single, five minute routine; his dancing handkerchief. He had just turned eighteen, barely old enough to enter the competition, and he was about to make magic history by becoming the youngest contestant to ever win the prestigious event.

Following his win, Bill never looked back. Today, Bill tours the country with one of the largest illusion shows on the road today. His show has been featured on NBC, CBS and FOX television. Bill prides himself with being able to consistently create and stage new illusions to thrill his audiences year after year. Through his countless stage appearances, Bill consistently draws standing ovations from audiences who have experienced his unique talents and performing arts ability.

We are pleased to welcome The Magic of Bill Blagg to this year’s edition of Jackie’s Magic!
