Stuart Macleod (magician)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stuart Macleod (born 1980) is a Scottish magician.

Macleod was brought up in Peterhead, and graduated at the University of Aberdeen with an MA in both Philosophy and Psychology. He is one half of Barry and Stuart.

He has won the Young Magician of the Year for Scotland twice. Along with Barry Jones, Macleod used to perform street magic in Aberdeen. The pair have since moved to London after producers at Objective Productions saw their own video, which resulted in the making of their first TV show called Magick for Channel 4.

In 2005, Macleod performed in Dirty Tricks and When Magic Tricks Go Wrong, both for Channel 4. At Christmas, he presented, along with Jones, a look at the miracles of Jesus in The Magic of Jesus.

In 2006, MacLeod performed with Barry Jones in Tricks From the Bible, where they were performing magical tricks from the Old Testament.
