You wouldn’t know it by looking at them, but college professors Chung and McSorley are experts at deception. Though by day their job is to share their abundance of knowledge of math and engineering, by night their only goal is to surprise and delight with mysteries too impossible to explain.

Two of the most well-known figures in the Montreal magic community, they have spent 15 years comfortable in the shadows behind the scenes working with some of the world’s greatest magicians to produce shows for the public and private events for their fellow conjurers.

In 2016, they finally stepped into the limelight. With 2-time Canadian champion of magic Marc Trudel directing, their show “Magic Hour” became a sleeper hit at the 2016 Montreal Fringe festival selling out almost every night.

In 2017, the contemplative conjurer Chung returned to the Fringe stage with another hot ticket show “Mystery Hour” with partner McSorley back behind the scenes as consultant, and the return of the multi-talented director Marc Trudel.

In 2019, the full team reunited for another wildly popular show. This time Marc Trudel joined the enigmatic duo on stage in “Magic Hour Plus”, an updated version of their original 2-man show with all-new magic, and 50% more magician. 

Since then, the duo have made but the occasional public appearance together. Though McSorley has been busy with his day job working on sustainability and engineering, Chung has been sharing his conjuring knowledge by lecturing throughout North America and Europe as well as advising some the best magicians in the world.

Through it all, the pair have been quietly developing new mysteries together to share with the world, so stay tuned for further developments.
