Richard Bellars is a close-up magician and mentalist, known for card magic and visual sleight of hand. Richard Bellars's career includes fooling Penn & Teller on Penn & Teller: Fool Us.
Richard Bellars is the British mentalist formerly billed as the Urban Magician. His published magic catalogue preserves high-impact close-up work and Confab-shoe-lation, the prediction routine associated with his successful Fool Us appearance. His current personal website, however, describes an international career in mentoring, facilitation, leadership and social-impact work rather than an active magic-performance offer. The evidence supports a verified historical magician profile and continuing public professional activity, but not current entertainment bookings. An operator should avoid presenting the coaching website as a magician booking page unless Bellars confirms that he still accepts performance engagements.
