Welcome to the Women in Magic podcast where we explore the meaning of magic in a brand new way!

Today’s guest is Magician & Conjurer Billy Kidd, who fuses superior sleight of hand skills and creative close-up magic with a background in theatre, arts and acting.

Billy’s mastery in magic has seen her featured on Masters of Illusion, Wizard Wars, the Discovery Channel and across the BBC, HBO, CBC, The CW Network plus many more stations.

Her unique approach to magic has catapulted her onto TV screens and theatre stages across the world and she has even received a standing ovation from the one-and-only Penn and Teller.
