New York City Magician Albert Cadabra is a Professional, Award Winning, Comedy Sideshow Magician who delivers Powerful, Amazing and Devilishly Wild Magic.
Over the past 12 years Albert has entertained people from China to Coney Island. From Concert Halls to Intimate Private Parties. His show is funny, well-rounded, astonishing and above all entertaining. This is the story of what and who brought him to such a highly developed degree of entertainment.

Born in Santa Monica, Ca and raised in Rhinebeck, NY, Albert was what you would call a typical “class clown”. Telling jokes, pulling pranks and baffling his fellow students with classic tricks found in a magic books he picked up from the school library (Albert, “It was Mark Wilson’s Complete Course in Magic and Bill Tarr's Now You See It, Now You Don't!")
It wasn’t until Rhinebeck High school English teacher and Theatre Director, Vincent Nugent, took Albert under his wing and taught him to hone his class clown attitude into a creative & entertaining mindset. Mr. Nugent placed him in the role of "the Scarecrow" in Rhinebeck’s production of the Wizard of Oz. Throughout the school’s many years of putting on shows not one performer was even nominated for the County Players Annual "Tony" Awards Ceremony. But that year Albert won the Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Musical and Most Promising Male Talent. Rhinebeck, NY was proud and Albert has been on stage ever since.

Albert then went on to attend Bard College. With the guidance and instruction of prestigious professors such as Adolfas Mekas, Peggy Ahwesh and Peter Hutton, Albert received a B.A. in Liberal Arts with a Major in Film. Aside from studying his tail off, throughout his Bard College days he continued to perform and improve his unique style of Magic and Comedy at numerous Bard events and local theaters. After graduating and deciding NYC was the place to make his new home, he bought a one-way ticket and arrived during the blizzard of ’96 and has never looked back.

Since arriving in NYC Albert Cadabra has been performing as much as humanly possible for EVERY Occasion. Such as Private parties (like Tom O'Horgan’s parties, the Caminis Christmas Ball), Concert Arenas (such as Roseland Arena in NYC and Whitemore Arena, NH), as well as creating and performing a show entitled MAGICAL MADNESS, an off-off-Broadway, hour long Magical Spectacular that ran weekly for two years straight here in NYC.

Albert Cadabra is happiest when able to perform his One-Of-A-Kind, Unique Magic. Filled with Amazing and bizarre feats of legerdemain using cards, coins, ropes, rings, cigars (kids you shouldn't smoke), razor blades (kids you shouldn't eat razor blades) borrowed items and his incredible Mental Power. Cadabra Magic is fun, funny, amazing and highly entertaining for people of all ages. His personable and witty attitude makes him loved by all.
Albert Cadabra is a true ENTERTAINER.
