Christopher Lyle, a native of Virginia, always had an interest in magic. His parents bought him his first magic trick when he was just four years old, and he had his first show by the time he was six. Christopher went pro with his act in 1984 performing shows all over Central Virginia at the tender age of 8.
Christopher has performed across North America, appearing before capacity crowds in more than 15 states, including several provinces of Canada and Glasgow, Scotland . He has made several television appearances on local TV shows around the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and is a most sought after coach by up-and-coming Magicians.
In 1995, Christopher entered a local magic competition and walked away with first place and the title of GRAND CHAMPION of Sleight of Hand Magic. He beat out Magicians 2 to 3 times his age and experience becoming the “YOUNGEST” person in the history of the contest to ever hold this distinction. He went on to repeat as GRAND CHAMPION the following three years ('96, '97 & '98). To date Christopher is the only person to ever win the coveted title FOUR years in a row.
He is a member of the world champion men’s chorus The Vocal Majority. Singing tenor with this 160+ man barbershop chorus, Christopher held the position of Rookie Choreography Instructor for 4 years, teaching the overall visual presentation of the VM’s repertoire. The Vocal Majority has been undefeated in International competition since 1979 having won an unprecedented 11 Gold Medals.

Christopher has revolutionized the art of prestidigitation. He has taken it to heights of artistry and imagination undreamed by wizards and audiences of the past. Witty, clever, engaging and supremely entertaining, Christopher's approach to the conjuring arts has transformed the way the public looks at magic.
Although Christopher travels the country and internationally, he is based in Dallas, Texas where he and his wife Jen reside with their daughter Willow Mackenzie.
