Bradley Fields

Actor, director and one of the most acclaimed magicians in the world, Bradley Fields began professionally at the age of fourteen. Working as apprentice to actor-magician, Jack Adams, Bradley began performing in schools, nightclubs, theatres, and on television. Using comedy, mime and characterization, Fields developed a style so original, that he became the first magician to appear in rock concerts and at such legendary nightspots as New York’s Gaslight, the Bitter End, Washington’s Cellar Door and Chicago’s Quiet Knight. Newspaper critics at the time compared him to Marcel Marceau, Charlie Chaplin, and Harpo Marx. Variety said, “What was once standard boite fare is now a real novelty. Fields impresses with his work and he walks off to much appreciation.” The Rochester Democrat & Chronicle called him “New York’s funniest magician.”

With the birth of his children, Fields took some time off to teach in the New York City Public Schools. It was there that he conceived the idea of MatheMagic!™, a show which uses magic to teach math. It has since been seen in over one thousand schools, theatres, and performing arts centers becoming one of the most highly praised and best selling educational shows in the US. In 1997 the Fairfax County Public Schools asked Bradley to develop and host the Magic in Math satellite TV series, which has since been seen in hundreds of schools nationwide.

In addition to giving two hundred performances of MatheMagic!™ each school year, Bradley Fields has appeared at the National Theater, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC and became the first American magician to be presented in Beijing, China. Bradley Fields continues to present his magic theatre & illusion Show to rave reviews, standing ovations and sold-out houses worldwide.
