As soon as Michael Dardant appears on stage, you’ll wonder where in the world this marvel came from.  He hails from South Louisiana, in fact, via the Brittany region of France, and now resides in the dazzling and delirious New Orleans French Quarter! His unique heritage and  genuine Cajun charm easily wins over every audience. Any crowd at any event is instantly captivated and will talk about their experience for years to come. His witty wizardry and hilarious antics are flavored with an improvisational style one rarely sees in a magician.  Each performance is like a “Talent Gumbo”!

Michael’s special blend of comedy, sleight of hand, pick pocketing, and even juggling has been featured  at thousands of theaters spanning three continents, on films, music videos, and over two dozen different television networks! Michael performs his hilarious routines in both French and English while thriving as a n actor, filmmaker, event emcee, traveling lecturer, an improvisational comedy professor, and a fixture in the burlesque world!

Apparently, this “Mike of all trades” needed more of a challenge. The renaissance magic man has recently taken on the most prestigious competitions in his field. In addition to countless national and international awards in magic, writing, and comedy, Michael Dardant was one of only twelve acts selected to represent the United States in the 2015 World Championships of Magic! He was also one of only two competitors world wide who qualified in two different categories, in both Stage Comedy and Close Up Parlour Magic!
