Luc Langevin
Spokesperson

From an early age, curiosity and the desire to understand pushed Luc Langevin to dive into the world of illusion. At the same time, Luc maintains a great passion for physical science. While he was finishing a master's degree in optics and starting a doctorate in biophotonics, the production company Téléfiction discovered the young artist's potential during a casting and offered him his first TV series. This is how in May 2009, "Comme parmagique" was broadcast for the first time on ARTV, thus allowing Luc to merge his talent as an illusionist and his scientific background to present more than 400 illusions to strangers encountered on the street or in public places. Luc's career is launched!
In 2010, Radio-Canada and ARTV presented the first of a series of “Artists Special” programs, where Luc created tailor-made illusions for guest artists. This show reaches more than a million viewers, with a 30% market share! One of these “Artist Specials”, “Aux Limits de l’Illusion 2”, received the Gémeaux Prize in 2013 for best variety or performing arts special. Other TV series concepts will be added.
Encouraged by the success of his shows, Luc Langevin co-produced in August 2013, his first show, "Réellement sur scène", which achieved popular success (in front of more than 150,000 spectators) and was praised by critics.
From February 10 to 28, 2016, the illusionist presents his show for the first time at the Casino de Paris, in France. The critics are unanimous: “LANGEVIN – Creator of illusions”. In 2016 and 2017, this show was presented 30 times in Paris and 45 times in the rest of France and Switzerland.
From February 2018, “Now tomorrow”, Luc's second show, offers the public 12 new illusions that dazzle, make people laugh and amaze as many people as possible. In this very high caliber show, we witness for the first time a number in which a member of the public is teleported from one place to another on the stage before the eyes of stunned spectators.
Luc Langevin's virtual show, "Interconnectés", was presented for the first time in front of an audience in December 2020. Throughout the performance, spectators experience unique, modern and innovative numbers where the magic happens in their inbox , in their hands... and even inside their house! With more than 100 performances in French in Quebec and Europe (France, Belgium and Switzerland), more than 50,000 spectators attended.
Luc Langevin's third stage show, "Vérités", has been presented across Quebec since September 2022 and until recently.
The numbers, each more fascinating than the last, lead spectators to question what they believe or not. What is truth? Where do we draw the line between the possible and the impossible?
Can we interact with the invisible? Can we travel in an instant from one place to another, whether in the theater itself or in another city? Can we make everything appear on stage, including the unthinkable, the disproportionate? The public's certainties are certainly shaken!
Luc is preparing a new show, with renowned collaborators including his long-time accomplice Stéphane Bourgoin. It will see the light of day in June 2025. It will be presented in Quebec, France, Belgium, Switzerland and elsewhere in the world for a few years!
At the same time, he will return with new projects on television here and elsewhere.
Career destiny and artistic direction were entrusted to Josélito Michaud. The production of its shows is the responsibility of LA TRIBU and LES 2 BELGES for the whole world.
Luc Langevin has today become the new reference as an illusionist, standing out for his charisma, his undeniable talent as a communicator as well as the creativity and precision of his magic.
Few illusionists around the world have been able to achieve this level of credibility and notoriety in such a short time.

Philippe Beau
Philippe Beau is a shadow magician, one of the few professional artists specializing in the rare and poetic discipline of creating shadow plays using only his hands. This ancestral art is called ombromania.
His various shows can be compared to choreographed hand ballets, where the shadows of characters and animals follow one another fluidly, in a unique morphing process, without special effects other than the virtuosity of the intertwining fingers.
All the capabilities of his hands are used to the extreme to create ephemeral shadows of an originality and beauty deemed unique in the world.

Alexandra Duvivier -
Congress artist
A very rare female representative of the magical art, Alexandra Duvivier was the winner of the
Mandrake d’Or in France and the first French woman to bluff Penn & Teller in their
famous American television show “Fool Us”.
Daughter of Dominique Duvivier, living legend of magic, she took on a double challenge: to make a first name after her illustrious father and to become a highly respected artist in the
particularly masculine world of magic. Unlike many children of the ball, she was never pushed by her father to follow the same path as him. He never showed her any tricks when she was a child: it was only at the age of 15 that Alexandra set out to become, little by little, the worthy heir to her father's empire.
Having become a favorite artist of the biggest brands for their private events (Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, L'Oréal, etc.), understudy of famous hands in the cinema, she has no less than eight shows to her credit: three shows alone on stage, three others in duet with his father, a show for children and a last one performed entirely in English. With her humor so striking, her magic both so pure and so generous, her natural empathy with young and old, she attracts an ever-increasing audience.
Beyond her talents as an artist, Alexandra Duvivier is also a trainer and
corporate speaker (innovative communication methods using magic)
and trainer as part of the first Bac+2 Magician diploma recognized by the Ministry
of Labor in France.
In 2021, she created the streaming channel www.doublefond.tv with her father for
learn magic with the greatest masters.

Jules Caron-
Festival artist
It was in the year 1978 that magic became an integral part of my life. She has fascinated me since I was 5 years old. I started to study this art thanks to books and videos on the subject.
1979 -1980 I took Magic classes offered by the Académie Camirand in Quebec. It was called Magic 1 Course given by Guy Camirand and Gary Ouellet then the Magic 2 course given by Gilles Couture.
I have been a member of AMPAQ, Association of Professional and Amateur Magicians of Quebec, since 1981.
From 1984, I did magic shows, either on stage or in micro-magic, for several events:
-During festivals in regions around Quebec.
-For campgrounds in the Quebec region.
-Christmas tree stripping.
-Primary schools, daycares and CPEs.
-Shopping centers and store openings.
-Summer camps.
-Leisure centers.
-For the Méchoui International sugar shack every spring since 1993 to 2019.
-For special events such as the launch of the latest Harry Potter book at Librairie Renaud Bray. At Mont St-Anne during the Magic Festival in the early 2000s, then at the Grand Théâtre for the opening of Casse-noisette, jazz festival in Montreal, magic show for Enfants Soleil, at Domaine Maizerets for events , a magic show which was broadcast on community television in 1988.
-Several parties for children and adults once or twice a week are under my belt. I was able to please teenagers, young children and adults alike.
Since 2002 I have been teaching magic in summer camps in the Quebec region. From 2005 I have been giving lessons through Dimensions Sportives et Culturelles in primary schools, an average of 10 schools per fall and winter session.
The kind of magic that I advocate calls for wonder, surprise, comedy including participation with the audience.
I remain passionately captivated by Magic and continually study in this field to transmit to people the wonder embedded in me.

Fredo -
Festival artist
From the age of 12, he became interested in magic. Rather verbal-motor in temperament, he distracts those around him while he performs tricks with his hands in a whirlwind of laughter and surprises. Self-taught, he educated himself by reading books, visiting shops specializing in magic tricks and observing other magicians. Magic fascinates him because it has something mysterious, inaccessible.
Today “a little bigger”, he remains as mischievous as ever. He always talks a lot and that’s his strength. Filled with humor and simplicity, Fredo is an accessible magician, a popular magician, a magician who is an accomplice to his young audience. Warm and endearing, he adores young people and he speaks the same language as them. The magic happens because they perceive him as a friend, like a big brother; they are literally fascinated by him.
Moreover, the magician is known to the world of 6-12 year olds. At the age of 13, he was already participating in well-known shows including Club des 100 watts and later, Bouledogue Bazar for 5 years. He has also participated in several television shows presented on major Canadian networks. In September 2005, he took part in the show MÉGA presented on TFO (TÉLÉVISION FRANCO-ONTARIENNE). He presents capsules filled with explained and unexplained magic. Young people also had the opportunity to see him on YOOPA and regularly on the show Salut Bonjour weekend on TVA. But you may have already had the chance to see him perform somewhere in Quebec, Ontario or New Brunswick because Fredo presents more than 100 shows per year!

Mephisto -
Festival artist
François, influenced by ''Pif Gadget'', made his debut as a magician at the age of 7, but he stopped due to lack of self-confidence. The powerful attraction of magic, however, still remains there, pushing him to go to see the shows of other magicians and to introduce his children to them. Then, in his thirties, no longer able to hold on, he picked up where he left off, devoured all the magic books, took courses, and Mephisto the Magician was (re)born in 2006! CPE, birthdays, festivals, schools, theaters and nearly a thousand performances later, he will be at the Magie de Québec festival to present his family show '' Wake up Mephisto!'' funny, mixed, naive and...magical than ever.
