A true entertainment trailblazer, Cosentino was the first magician to have his own TV shows in Australia. These prime-time specials were a ratings bonanza, averaging 1.3 million viewers per episode (source: Oztam) and they have now been broadcast in over 40 countries. Cosentino is Live Nation Australia's highest selling touring act and in 2015 undertook his biggest live tour of Australia, selling out 13 shows in record time. This year, his Twisted Reality live show has been staged to full houses across Asia and New Zealand. Cosentino is quickly becoming an international phenomenon, racking up an impressive list of achievements. He has been awarded the prestigious Merlin Award, acknowledging him as the 'International Magician of the Year' (previous winners include David Copperfield, Penn & Teller and Criss Angel) and has recently been announced as the 'International Escape Artist of the Year'. Already regarded as this country's most successful magician, illusionist and escapologist, Cosentino continues to push the boundaries of what's possible both here in Australia and internationally.
