The performer

About Christian Cagigal

Magician, actor and theater consultant Christian Cagigal splits his time between New York City and San Francisco, performing as a magician at Speakeasy Magick in New York City, co-producing Odd Salon NYC and running the San Francisco Ghost Hunt.

His magic is theatrical and drawn to the strange: the SF Chronicle made him a Fall Arts Pick for 2024, calling him "The go-to guy for the wondrous and eldritch", and its review of Witching Hour reported that "Christian Cagigal Violates the Laws of Physics". An SF Chronicle Critic's Pick, Cagigal is a natural fit for intimate rooms and evening events on either coast, where guests are looking for atmosphere and mystery as much as astonishment.
