Paul Wilson

On our stage at:

2010 2011 2013 FISM Italy 2015 2016 United Magicians for the World 2020 FISM World Championship 2025

Paul Wilson is regarded by many as one of the world's foremost experts on deception, with a unique background spanning conjuring, casino cheating and con games. His experience as a magician and producer allows him to turn complex feats of deception into simple, entertaining and baffling effects, and close-up is his natural home.

He is also a storyteller: as an author and filmmaker he has written and directed several features and documentaries about magic, crime and con artists, exploring with an insider's eye the world of those who deceive for a living.

Paul Wilson is one of the most frequent friends of our stage: Masters of Magic Convention 2010, 2011, 2013 and 2016, FISM World Championship in Rimini 2015, United Magicians for the World online charity shows 2020 and FISM World Championship in Turin 2025.
