Discover Bill Malone’s Magic: 40 Years of Expertise

I am excited to continue our exploration of classic magic with yet another entertaining installment of Magic Monday! Bill Malone has returned once again, bringing more captivating and entertaining magic to audiences everywhere. Bill has been performing for an impressive span of over 40 years, and his extensive experience truly shines through in every act he delivers.

Since the release of these DVDs, Bill has kept himself incredibly busy and active in his career. He has expanded his talents by venturing into acting, securing roles on several popular TV shows. Alongside his professional accomplishments, Bill has a loving family and remains one of the most highly sought-after performers for corporate events across the country. In addition to all this, he has been diligently working on writing a book, which is expected to be released very soon! I personally can’t wait to see what he has to say on the business side of magic, from booking performances to marketing yourself.

I recently watched a lecture Bill gave, mainly to learn an ace Cutting technique he taught. It was definitely worth it. The subtleties he brings to the table with a deck of cards are truly amazing!

After the release of On the Loose DVDs, he came back to release even more wonderful magic to the community. Here I go again was a 3 volume set of instructional DVDs full of entertaining magic!

The Magic of Learning: Tricks from Bill Malone

I remember watching Penn and Teller, David Copperfield, and various other magic shows on TV as a kid. Magic always fascinated me, but it wasn’t until I saw Bill Malone on The World’s Greatest Magic that I truly felt compelled to learn how to perform like him.

My passion didn’t ignite fully until I watched David Blaine’s first magic special. With the advent of the internet becoming widely accessible, I used it to discover and study magic—something I continue to do to this day. This post kicks off a series dedicated to showcasing incredible, fun, and captivating magic tricks and performers to a broader audience. It’s all too easy to come across poor-quality magic performed poorly, so this is my small effort to help grow and improve the magic community.

Bill Malone is an extraordinary performer, entertainer, and teacher. A student of Ed Marlo, he spent years learning alongside Marlo, Simon Aronson, Steve Draun, Dave Solomon, and many others. Bill is not only hilariously entertaining but has also generously shared invaluable insights into the business of performing magic. His six-DVD set, Malone Meets Marlo, is an outstanding introduction to Ed Marlo’s work and card magic. The videos below are highlights from his On The Loose DVD series! Enjoy!

Enjoy the one and only Bill Malone!

I truly hope that you find just as much joy and excitement in watching Bill perform his incredible and astonishing magic as I always do every single time!
