From his earliest performance at nine years old in his parents’ living room, to a packed-out civic auditorium thirty years later, Scot Violette has pursued excellence with a passion. His love for magic as a child led him to study theatre in both high school and college, he became a local community theatre actor and director, then started video and TV production work.
Scot’s stage and film production experience has given him a unique, "audience" perspective that helps him design illusion routines that amaze, mystify, and entertain young and old alike. "My hands move faster than your eyes" is an understatement when watching Scot perform.
At the age of 32, Scot became a believer in Jesus Christ during his tour of duty with the U.S. Army in Operation Desert Storm. Shortly after that, he became a youth pastor and discovered the illustrative quality of magic in communicating the gospel. His show has grown from an object lesson to a full hour of bringing the Bible to life, right before your very eyes.
In addition to performance, Scot also disciples and mentors apprentice Christian magicians, teaching them to make the most of every opportunity for evangelism. He is a member of the International Fellowship of Christian Magicians, a group of over 2000 likeminded performing ministers.
Scot is married to Hannah, a Christian author, songwriter, and performing musician in her own right. Together, Scot and Hannah take the Gospel of the Kingdom of God to those who have never heard it, and to those who need a fun, friendly reminder.
