Billed as “America’s Hottest Illusionist,” Jason Bishop is doing cutting edge illusions like no one ever before! He is well-known for turning a $1 bill into a $100 bill, then giving it to an audience member. However, that feat is small compared to the other grand illusions his show features. Bishop is currently the only illusionist in the U.S. to tour with the rare Double Levitation, Plasma illusion and Op-Art. His award-winning sleight of hand and “close-up” magic is captured live and projected onto LCD screens for the audience to have a clear view of every detail.
Bishop’s interest in magic ran throughout his youth, truly taking shape in his mid-teens. In college, Jason studied theatre, before going on the road, performing at resorts and amusement parks—anywhere he could find an audience. As audiences enjoyed his show more and more, he altered his magic to become larger and more impressive.
Bishop is now an international award-winning illusionist who was the youngest person to win the Magician’s Alliance of Eastern States Stage Award and one of the youngest people to compete in the Society of American Magicians World-Class competition. In 2007, he was honored by his peers with the prestigious “Jack Gwynne Award for Excellence in Presentation.” The previous year, college campuses voted him “Best Performing Artist of the Year.”
Bishop’s combination of modern costuming and music, fast-paced illusions, sleight of hand and audience participation has landed him in several notable venues, including Caroline’s on Broadway and the Tropicana Hotel in Atlantic City. More recently, Jason has been featured in various Performing Arts Centers and theaters throughout the United States. Carolyn Brode of Gordon Performing Arts Center in Lake Forest, Illinois described his show as “… a huge success! People were talking about this show for days and days after the performance! They immediately requested that he return.”
