Jeff Hobson Biography
Jeff Hobson is one of the most in-demand comedy magicians working today. His refreshing and clever mix of comedy and magic has brought him back for repeat performances all over the world.
Hobson has won numerous awards for his skills. Among the most recent is his Best Comedy Magic award given by the International Magic Awards Association as well as an award of Best Magic Review by the World Magic Awards for his role as star and producer of the critically acclaimed Carnival of Wonders show at the Reno Hilton Hotel and Casino in Reno, Nevada.
Jeff's television appearances include HBO, Showtime's Comedy Club Network, Fox Family's Masters of Illusion, NBC's Magic on the Edge, as well as Thames Television's Magic Comedy Strip, a 16-week television series in England.
Jeff is a favorite entertainer to many of the Fortune 500 companies. He has an uncanny ability to break the ice and allow everyone to enjoy themselves with his program of audience participation, comedy, magic and even fire eating! During his performance, Hobson tip-toes his way throughout the audience teasing the crowd. As his finale, Hobson returns a dozen wristwatches that were stolen during the show to the surprise, laughter - and often times - shock of the audience members!
Jeff Hobson was serious about his magic as he grew up in Detroit, Michigan. Rigorous practice was a ritual, and by age 12, he was routinely winning national magic competitions. Then, at age 17, when he was booked to perform his manipulation act at Boblo Island, an amusement park that could only be reached by a cruise on the lake, things changed.
He reached the island, but forgot to unload his equipment. The Boblo boat sailed away with his act. As a result, Jeff had to improvise, utilizing only a simple prop or two and his innate sense of humor. It was a hit, and Hobson has focused on comedy magic since that day.
Before conquering casinos with his hilarious hocus pocus, Hobson performed corporate shows for most of the Fortune 500 companies. He was featured on NBC's World's Greatest Magic, Fox's Comic Strip Live, HBO specials, and has appeared on Australian TV specials and Thames Television's Magic Comedy Strip from London.
Around 1993, Jeff settled down for a long run in the Spellbound show in Las Vegas. Happily golfing by day, and starting to raise a family (total of five so far), Jeff became good friends with Mark Kalin and Jinger when they signed on to star in Spellbound in 1995.
Because Hobson's outrageous comedy magic worked so well with Kalin & Jinger's magic, the trio set out to self-produce their highly successful Before Your Very Eyes in Atlantic City.
Hobson's overwhelming success in that show led to an even greater role in the production of the Carnival of Wonders show. Because of his uncanny, chameleon-like sense of the absurd, Hobson played six hilarious characters.
