Kevin McMahon - Biography

Kevin had the most fascinating introduction into magic. Do you remember that reality TV show Faking It, that used to be on channel 4? It was one of those shows you'd love to go on, no public humiliation, but learning a skill taught to you by the best in the business. Back in 2005 Kevin appeared on this show, a 90 minute Easter Day special watched by almost 7 million people across the UK. It has since aired across the world.

After the show Kevin has recieved Fan mail from folks is every continent across the world. He was taught by the best working professionals in the UK today. In addition he was flown over to Las Vegas where he received a master class on magic from the best magicains in the world "Penn and Teller". That certainly left his mark on Kevin.

Since the show, he has now gone on to become one of the top magicians in the UK. A selection of high profile events and projects that Kevin has created or worked on are outlined below.

    The Magic Castle in Holywood is the unofficial magic capital of the world. (Of course that only makes sense if a 'capital' could be a 'castle', which it can't be, really, but you probably understand what I mean. The Castle is a very cool place.) Almost all of the worlds most famous magicians, past and present have trodden their famous floors.

    To be invited over to LA to perform is one of the greatest honours that can be bestowed upon a magician.
