There are few shows that highlight artists of all kinds, such as dancers, singers... and magicians. While in the time of the late Plus grand cabaret du monde, Patrick Sébastien would treat us to a wonderful lineup every month, it is now mainly on the show La France a un Incroyable Talent that artists can present their acts and be discovered by the public. This program, broadcast on M6, has seen many magicians pass through over its years on air, and in this article, we will look at these illusionists who have stood out on La France a un Incroyable Talent.
David Stone
With highly noted and remarkable performances, David Stone managed to shine in the exercise of performing parlour/stage magic on this show. He successively charmed the jury with a (now iconic) carrot trick, where a playing card is found inside, or with a borrowed credit card that ends up inside a block of ice!
Klek Entos
If we've talked about David Stone, it's clear we must also talk about Klek Entos (on whom we wrote an article right here). Indeed, it's the magician David Stone hiding behind the mask of the one who makes you confront your greatest fears... Armed with his axe and his unique style, Klek Entos achieved immense success, to the point of still touring today with a show that we encourage you to see! This magician caused quite a stir during his appearance on Incroyable Talent, and the secret of his identity was successfully kept until the very last moment. A true tour de force, with nothing to envy from the "very well written" (to quote Eric Antoine) bird trick. A poet magician, in short.
Eric Antoine
It's worth knowing that before becoming the well-known judge on Incroyable Talent, Eric Antoine was also a contestant! He is known for his humour, his tall stature, and for his magic shows like Réalité ou illusion, which was a great success at the time. Having (temporarily?) stopped magic to dedicate himself to television, he can be found as a presenter on various shows, including Incroyable Talent.
Markobi
World magic champion Marc Bittar, also known as Markobi, became known to the general public through his participation in the show Incroyable Talent. The magic world already knew him from his FISM award, a congress where he caused a sensation, but his assumed confident style won the hearts of the judges, officially making him the first contestant to receive a platinum buzzer. A great mark of recognition for this talented magician.
Mathieu Stepson
How can we not mention the winner of the 19th season of Incroyable Talent, the brilliant Mathieu Stepson, who won the hearts of both the jury and the viewers? No magician had achieved the feat of reaching first place in the show since season 11, which was won by Antonio, a well-known magician also part of the show Diversion. Mathieu Stepson was not new to the concept, as he had already participated in the show in 2017 without winning, and had also participated in the Belgian version of the concept. A great example of perseverance leading to victory! To read the full article on Mathieu Stepson, click here!
Antonio
Antonio is the first magician to win the show Incroyable Talent. This opened up many television opportunities for him, such as appearing on the highly successful show Diversion. He is also a recurring magician on the show Vendredi tout est permis, presented by Arthur;
Les French Twins
The two twin magicians began their television careers on the show Incroyable Talent. They were quickly noticed for their unique style, blending magic and technology. Subsequently, they created their show, which they perform all over France, and create magical moments for major brands.
