Send us a text Larry Wilson, a seasoned comedy magician with over thirty years of experience, has captivated audiences with his dynamic performances on television and at renowned venues like the Magic Castle. Specializing in close-up magic, Wilson expertly blends humor and illusion in acts such as his "cocktails and conjuring" routine, emphasizing the importance of meticulous rehearsal and live audience feedback in refining his craft. He values the opportunity to experiment with new material in intimate magic clubs, viewing these settings as creative laboratories where he can discover the comedic timing crucial to his routines.
