About Luis Carreon

Award-winning magician Luis Carreon won the Harlan Tarbell Close-up Competition Award from the International Brotherhood of Magicians two years in a row, and took first place at the Chicago Magic Competition hosted by The Society of American Magicians. He is a founding member of The Chicago Magic Lounge, where he performs regularly, and head demonstrator at Magic Inc., the oldest family-owned magic shop in the country.

His magic comes wrapped in a style of humor and wisdom he also teaches to other magicians around the country. Luis has staged his show Bending Minds and Bending Dreams at theaters all around Chicago, reached the semi-finals of Tengo Talento, the Spanish language equivalent of America's Got Talent, been featured on the Univision evening news, and performs frequently at the Magic Castle in Hollywood. Fluent in Spanish, he tailors the show for colleges and corporate events nationwide.

Close-Up Magic

Sleight of hand at conversational distance — cards, coins, and borrowed objects that misbehave in your own palm.

Corporate Events

Professional entertainment shaped for company celebrations, conferences, clients, and teams.

Parlour Magic

Table-side theatre for a small crowd — storytelling and set-pieces built for an intimate room.
