COSENTINO THE GRAND ILLUSIONIST WINS OVER SPAIN
2014 has started in the best possible way for the International Magician of the Year, Cosentino, with the exciting news that key international territories are also falling under his spell.
Cosentino’s International push commenced over the festive period, with Spanish network ‘TVE’ airing all four episodes between Christmas and New Year to an ecstatic response from TV executives and new fans alike with over one million people tuning in. “The response of the Spanish public has truly humbled me. Throughout my career I’ve always wanted to share my craft with as many Believers as possible. This is the first step in that process and I thank everyone who tuned in,” beamed Cosentino.
Next in line to air these gripping TV specials are India, Japan, New Zealand and numerous territories across South East Asia including Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and The Philippines.
Cosentino is widely recognised as the catalyst for the huge resurgence in popularity of magic and illusions on TV in Australia.
After receiving the distinctive honour of being the first magician in this country to have their own prime-time TV series, his high-adrenalin mix of spectacular stage illusions, death-defying escapes and cutting edge street magic resulted in all 3 episodes of The Magic, The Mystery and The Madness dominate the ratings for Network Seven in 2013 – being viewed by over 4 million people nationally.
2013 was a year of many highlights for Cosentino: 3 top rating prime-time TV specials, a sold-out national tour, winner of Dancing With the Stars, the release of his first Magic Kit (The Grand Illusionist Magic Kit by Cosentino) which was one of the hottest items at retail for Xmas and the prestigious peer-voted International Magician of the Year award (the Academy Award for magicians).
With international markets now calling, a new series of TV specials featuring Cosentino’s biggest and best performances yet, brand new magic products hitting retail and another national tour and international tour planned for later in the year, 2014 looks set to be the busiest year yet for our talented Aussie.
