About Gil Stone

Gil Stone discovered the art of magic at the age of 17 and was immediately captivated by its ability to create wonder and connection. During his service as a Navy Hospital Corpsman, Gil used his magic to boost the morale of his fellow Marines, especially during his tour in Fallujah, Iraq.

Whether performing for small gatherings or delving into the intricacies of sleight of hand, he remains passionate about sharing the art of astonishment with others.
