Biography
Doug first became interested in
performing magic as a boy. However, his first love, musical theatre,
occupied much of his free time. Soon after college, Doug began combining
his experience in theatre with his knowledge of the magical arts and the results
were amazing. In recent years, Doug has been performing around the world
from New York City to the Philippines. He was featured in the music video "Kind
and Generous" with pop diva Natalie Merchant, has been a favorite at the
Showboat Casino Hotel in Atlantic City, and is regularly on tour with the
National Circus Project.
Some have called the
magic of Doug Young amazing and fun to watch. Others still claim that the
magic is not what you see him do on stage ... it's the immediate
connection that he makes with both the young and the young at heart. Doug
Young brings a natural charm to his fun show for all ages. Everybody can
be a magician as Doug invites folks from the audience on stage to create some
wonderful magical moments.
Magic has a mysterious way
of bringing out the child in all of us. Never before has this been truer
than when presented by illusionist and entertainer, Doug Young. Whether he
is simply ripping a newspaper into pieces (only to become whole again), or
teaching the audience how to turn a handkerchief into a real solid egg... you
are instantly caught in the spell that this able magician casts. Doug will
leave the entire audience with a smiling face and with a little bit of mystery
on their mind.
"Believe it or not, your talents really
did help make the evening a huge success; and you brought happiness to people
that you don’t even know."
Fran Hoey, Robert Wood Johnson Medical School
"The act was perfectly designed to capture the imagination of the entire
audience."
