Fielding West isn’t just a magician; he’s the magician’s magician. With a comedic timing so spot on it could win awards (and it has), he’s been the warm-up act for showbiz legends like Liza Minnelli and Glen Campbell. This chap has taken his talents to the small screen, gracing shows like A&E's An Evening at the Improv and NBC's World's Greatest Magic specials. And if that wasn’t enough, he’s also the go-to writer and consultant for some of the biggest names in magic, including Lance Burton and Siegfried & Roy. Now, for the first time ever, Fielding pulls back the curtain on his illustrious career and shares the secrets behind his success.
