Airdate: Cosentino: The Grand Illusionist

Australia’s Got Talent runner-up Cosentino fronts his own special on Seven next week.

Cosentino: The Grand Illusionist screens at 7:30pm Wednesday 19 September.

Seven will soon premiere the series Dynamo: Magician Impossible, presumably taking the same timeslot a week later (to be confirmed).

With world-class production values, Cosentino – The Grand Illusionist will take the audience on a journey of incredible ingenuity, intimate magical mysteries and intense escapes – distorting all you thought was impossible for one man to achieve!

Cosentino is now Australia’s number one illusionist and the face of a new generation of one of the world’s oldest art forms. His grand, theatre-style show brings to life some of the most complex and riveting magic ever seen, delivering just the right amount of danger to keep the audience on the edge of their seats.

Cosentino burst into Australian homes last year as a contestant on Australia’s Got Talent and earned his spot as one of the country’s most-loved acts when he was voted runner-up to winner, Jack Vidgen. The rise that followed cemented his claim as one of the hottest performers in Australia as he toured the country with multiple sold-out shows.

As well as being a finalist on Australia’s Got Talent, Cosentino is a Guinness World Record holder, Helpmann Award nominee and the 2012 winner of the prestigious international Merlin Award for the Most Original Magician – a first for an Australian Illusionist/magician.

Cosentino, The Grand Illusionist, features his sold out theatre performance at the revered Regent Theatre, street magic performed in-front of unsuspecting shoppers and a death defying escape that has to be seen to be believed.
