The Magicians
James Randi established his career as a stage magician and escape artist. Inspired by the legendary Harry Houdini, he performed stunts like being sealed in an underwater coffin in 1956 and freeing himself from a straitjacket suspended over Niagara Falls in 1976. As his fame grew, he was nicknamed "The Amazing Randi" and he began to appear regularly on television and radio, from children's programs to The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.
Shawn Farquhar is a two time world magic champion. Shawn has been entertaining audiences around the globe for over two decades. His magic has been seen on Television shows like the X-Files and Highlander, in Motion Pictures like Spooky House and the Fly II, for corporate clients like IBM and Konica, and on the most luxurious cruise vessels such as Norwegian Star and Radiance of the Seas.
Camilo Dominguez "Camilo The Magician". Camilo was born and raised in Bogota, Colombia. At age 15, he moved to Victoria, Canada, to pursue his education and subsequently explore and pursue acting and performing opportunities. As a young magician, Camilo was mentored by many individuals that he appreciates and admires. Camilo learned his first magic lesson under the direction of Consuelo Lorgia at age four. After, Camilo was mentored by Gustavo Mago Gus Rodriguez and later on Camilo attended the School of Magic Arts in Bogota, where renowned magician Richard Sarmiento mentored him.
