Michael Mills
Magician
With playful flair and undeniable charm, Michael Mills’ contemporary comedy magic whisks audiences on a thrilling fun-house tour of deception. Hailing from upstate New York, Michael’s entertainment journey began performing at the Catskills’ classic resorts and Adirondack retreats, where he forged the foundation of his signature style. Over the years, he’s graced hundreds of private events and resort stages—and whenever his schedule allows, he surfaces for public engagements. Highlights include appearances at Chicago Magic Lounge, Phoenix’s Carnival of Illusion, and a historic debut of his one-man show Fool Me Once at Caffè Lena in Saratoga Springs (the first magician in the venue’s 63-year history). This past winter, Michael co-headlined the inaugural Jokers of Magic theater tour, which returns for a 20-city extension in 2026.
While magic remains his first passion, Michael is also the founder & CEO of Mills Entertainment—one of the nation’s leading producers of touring shows. From John Cleese and Mel Brooks to Colin Mochrie & Brad Sherwood of Whose Line Is It Anyway, his productions deliver inventive, polished live experiences.
Packed with jaw-dropping illusions, hearty laughs, and unexpected twists, Michael’s show is a versatile, plug-and-play hit— promising an unforgettable experience for all.
