Michael Dardant

With more than 30 first-place and championship accolades, Michael Dardant ranks among the top magicians in the United States, his sleight of hand earning international recognition. His Cajun wit is as sharp as it is surprising, matching close-up astonishment with infectious humor.

Audiences see him fill a theatre with witty wizardry or work the room with "mingle magic" at private parties and promotional events; he has played the Hollywood Magic Castle and the Chicago Magic Lounge. Recently named International Ambassador to the Quebec Magic Festival and inducted into the Magic Circle in London, he has also appeared on screen in HBO's Treme, NCIS and Focus, with roles and writing that won awards for independent New Orleans films such as Trailer Park Jesus.
