Starman

On our stage at:

2016

Starman, born Sergio Siepe in Buenos Aires in 1978, was a shy, introverted child. At ten he realised magic would run through his veins for life and enrolled at the Escuela Master Magia Show in his home city. A five year contract with a restaurant chain took him from Miami to Bolivia and across South America, where he honed his close-up magic just inches from the spectators. Having fallen in love with Italy, he settled there with his family and created children's shows such as La ricerca della chiave magica.

Illusionist, sleight of hand artist, actor and clown, in 2011 he took third place at the international congress in Abano Terme, representing Italy. Since 2012 he has been a member of the FFFF, the prestigious close-up convention in Batavia, New York, where he earned the Doctor's Degree of Magic. In 2014 he received the Dante Naldi award for innovation in magic in San Marino, in 2017 he appeared on Penn & Teller: Fool Us and won a prize at the international competition in Baden, and in 2018 he was honoured at the FISM World Championship in Korea. He also tours magic clubs with his lecture Senza regole.

Masters of Magic Convention audiences saw him in action in 2016.
