Biography

 

Like many magicians my first contact with Magic was a Magic Box offered by my parents for Christmas. After doing my classes for some years at the "Club des Jeunes Magiciens de Bruxelles", I took my first steps on stage.

I've always been interested in the mix of disciplines (magic, mime, pyrotechnics, etc.). Later I created an act (Feelings) mixing mime and magic and won with this a First Prize at the Belgian Championship in 1987.

In 1989 under the leadership of Stanislas (creator of the Cirque du Trottoir) we collaborated at the show "Les Magiciens/the Magicians". For 7 years we performed this show more than 200 times all over Belgium and France (including for the first part of singer Nilda Fernandez at the Olympia in Paris).
After this wonderful experience I decided to live my passion and become a "professional magician".

I have always loved exploring new techniques and this is how in 1998 I reworked an old technique from the 18th century. With a felt circle I created several hats and characters following each other at a fast pace. This act won a First Prize at the Belgian and French Championships.

In 2003 for the Halloween period we created the show "Wickawitch" at the request of the Bellewaerde amusement park. We stayed there for 5 years, each time with a different show, reaching over 20,000 spectators per season.

In 2006, for the Cap48 operation, RTBF asked my services to create “custom-made” magic acts for different presenters of this TV Channel (Jacques Mercier, François de Brigode, Joëlle Scoriels, Maureen Louys, etc. .). This formula was successfully reiterated in 2007, 2008 and 2009

 

In 2007 I made a childhood dream come thru (another one ...) by adopting my first parrot : a cockatoo named Gringo. I discovered myself a real passion for those particularly sensitive and intelligent birds.
Since then other parrots and a few parakeets join us and enlarge this family.
This is how I reworked my birds act by involving parakeets, the cockatoo and a macaw. This act is constantly evolving as other birds are joining us following their learning curve.

In 2011 I had the great pleasure of presenting this act at the "Plus Grand Cabaret du Monde" on France 2. More than 4 million viewers in one evening ...

  • Audience children's show

In 2012 I was contacted by the Royal Palace to present my bird act at a gala in the presence of Her Highness Queen Paola.

In 2017, I was contacted by Walibi to create a new Illusion show in a Steampunk theme for their Halloween season. The Magic SteamShow was born ... Subsequently we presented a new version of this show for the Halloween season from 2018 till 2022.

In the same time, I continue to perform my Trucabrac children's show in the 4 corners of Belgium, to propose my close-up animation for a lot of events for many companies across Belgium and Europe and above all to live my passion by trying to deceive, to amaze and above all to entertain an audience always delighted to see a real show before their very eyes.
