One of the world’s most celebrated illusionists, Rob Lake’s (roblake.com) mind-blowing illusions dazzle and entertain millions across network television, in Times Square, on the Vegas strip, in Atlantic City and before sold-out audiences in casinos, arenas and theatres worldwide. Named “The World's Greatest Illusionist” by NBC, Lake is internationally renowned for his mesmerizing and award-winning illusion spectacular. 

In 2008, Lake became the youngest magician in history to receive the holy grail of the magic world — The Merlin Award – as “International Stage Magician of the Year.” This award is magic’s highest honor and the industry equivalent of an Oscar.

Lake serves as magic consultant for network TV series, feature films, commercials, theme parks, and theatrical shows. His magical creations can be seen in theatrical productions across the globe, including multiple upcoming Broadway productions, Harry Potter philharmonic arena tours, The Phantom of the Opera, and Disney’s Beauty & the Beast. 

Lake headlines in venues around the world bringing his physics- and sometimes even death-defying illusions to audiences across the United States and in more than 40 countries throughout Europe, Asia, Australia and the Middle East, including performances at The Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Caesars Palace Coliseum in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Lake Tahoe, and as the resident headliner at the iconic Atlantis Resort in The Bahamas.

Lake dedicates time, support and his voice to causes he holds near and dear to his heart – supporting members of the military and Animal Rescue. In fact, his own furry companion Roger, a Yorkie mutt, was once a rescue dog, and has become a popular part of his show, as well.
