“Magic is my magnificent obsession,” says Toronto born Illusionist, COBY. For over a decade COBY has vanished, reappeared, and levitated his way into the hearts of his audiences. With an energetic persona, and his mind-boggling illusions, COBY has revamped the way magic and illusions are performed.
In the corporate world Illusionist COBY has made some of the most prominent people appear on stage. He always customizes, his performance to suit his venues. He has also taught the art of magic to some of the biggest names in entertainment. His personal lessons have also helped aid many individuals open the ice and close some major deals and projects. He also has acted as a consulting aid to the Toronto Metropolitan Police, teaching them the art of magic, deception and misdirection.
COBY is more than a magician: He is first of all a perfect creator. He writes, develops, and carries all of his projects himself. He is a master showman in both close up, and grand illusion. “From week to week we work on the development of a new illusion and test it. That keeps me on my toes, and provides the show with certain freshness. Quite a few people attend my shows several times but we still manage to surprise them by challenging the show or adding a new element.”
COBY has lifted the meaning of magic to new dimensions. He created new understanding for what the word magic describes and what it will also mean in the future, He has re-written the book and has led magic to unsuspected heights of art and imagination which neither the magicians nor the public could ever have envisioned in the past. He refined the old art of magic to a kind of high tech magic. His illusions are both spectacular magic and entertaining theatre. He combines mystery and romance in a sensuous experience for eye and ear, body and soul - in absolutely incredible illusions, which rock our senses and move our hearts. Coby changes our view of what magic is and what it can be for all times.
