David Williamson - Ringmaster and Magician of Circus 1903

David Williamson is currently touring in Circus 1903, a show from the producers of The Illusionists and the puppeteers of War Horse. It's a fun celebration of the golden age of circus.

David isn't a trained ringmaster, but a professional magician. He has been featured on ABC's Champions of Magic, where he appeared with Princess Stephanie as he performed his miracles at different locations in and around Monaco.

"THE CLOSEUP MAGICIAN IS THE SUPREME APPLIED PSYCHOLOGIST." "You know how people are going to look, you know how to divert attention and interest, and you have to put your presentation with some meaning for them to keep them interested. Kids who study magic, come away with a toolset that serves them beyond the magic tricks. "

Working as a magician is a career very few people can pull off. How did David become a magician and sustain a career for decades? What are the words of wisdom he'd like to pass onto our younger generation?

David is going to unveil the world of magic to you, and the life of performing with a Circus.
