Hello Connjurors!

My name is Chris De Tone, 56 years old, love magic. Especially, close up card magic.

My Dad owned a magic shop in Bricktown, NJ during the late ‘70’s, ‘80’s and early ‘90’s. It was called the Magic Wand.

Back then all I cared about was being an escape artist and juggling. But, then he passed on and I didn’t want all of what he was to be forgotten.

So, I decided to get back into magic (close up):

1) Because I really do love it.

2) To honor his legacy and love of magic.

I started back into studying magic during the COVID mess. And I’m still learning, still trying.

I really like Mr. Conn’s passion and demeanor, so I have decided to take further steps in order to meet magicians and learn more.

Thank you.

Chris De Tone

Hi Chris,

Those are great reasons to get into the deceptive arts.

I was a juggler before I got into magic. Now I'm trying to incorporate both hobbies by developing a routine that includes object manipulation, flair bartending, and sleight-of-hand magic.

I also dig Doug's passion and Conn-templative approach to teaching magic.
