About Michel

Commissioned by the magic federation, Michel presented several events and took place in the jury of magic competitions.

In 2010, Michel gave an appearance during the Dutch championship for junior magicians, after which he attended the SBS program De 25 meest opvallende kampioenen (The 25 most remarkable champions). More than 1.2 million people watched his guest performance at De nieuwe Uri Geller (The new Uri Geller). Also in other television programs, such as Hart van Nederland (Heart of the Netherlands) and Shownieuws (Shownews), Michel's talent did not go unnoticed. In the national media, he was described as the "top of the magic bill".

Collaboration with the Kazàn family

In autumn 2013, Michel could be seen with Oscar, Renzo and Mara Kazàn - Magic Unlimited - in the Dutch theaters. In collaboration with a colleague, Michel brought his own theater production on stage that same season.
