Xavier Mortimer is an illusionist based in Las Vegas, Nevada, specializing in comedy magic and kids & family. Xavier Mortimer's career includes the Mandrake d'Or in Paris, fooling Penn & Teller on Penn & Teller: Fool Us, and being billed 1 week at The Magic Castle in Hollywood.
Award-winning illusionist Xavier Mortimer brings comedy and enchantment together to create a dream world of magic, and he does it with a rare pedigree: a former Cirque du Soleil performer who created the character Sneaky for MICHAEL JACKSON ONE.
His show Magical Dream opened at Planet Hollywood Casino Resort in 2016 and moved to Bally's in 2018, and from 2018 to 2022 it was voted Best Magic show in Las Vegas by the Las Vegas Review Journal four years in a row, as well as Best Family Friendly show from 2019 to 2022. Trained in music and dance in La Rochelle and in acting and mime at the Jacques Lecoq School in Paris, Mortimer composes the music for his own shows, and in September 2020 he fooled Penn and Teller on Fool Us.
