Darren Yong started magic at the age of 13 after being inspired by a few magic specials on television. His love of magic really expanded after his first trip to Las Vegas and saw a handful of inspiring magic shows. Back home, when he should have been studying for exams and doing homework he was at the library learning and practicing his newly discovered craft. Magic, he learned was a great ice breaker and a wonderful way to meet new people since he was a very shy kid growing up.
After a few years passed he realized he really enjoyed focusing his talents in close up magic, a form of magic that is done right before your eyes. No smoke, no special effects, glitter, mirrors, lengthy story lines, rabbits out of hats, assistants or boxes. Darren majored in psychology at UMass Boston and uses his skills learned in school and his experience in the performance to add his own unique personality in his show.
He gives a breath of fresh air for magic, he performs regularly at Fortune 500 events, hotels, weddings, fairs, festivals, birthday parties, private events, bar/ bat mitzvahs, colleges , trade shows, and school assemblies.
