Alain Choquette

Alain Choquette (born 1961) is a Québécois illusionist.

Biography Choquette is considered one of the first Quebec magicians to have presented large-scale solo illusion shows.

In 1993, at the age of 31, he presented the show Première apparition at the Université de Sherbrooke Cultural Centre, marking an important milestone in his career.

One of his tricks, La Disparition des douze, was taken up by the renowned David Copperfield, and he has also collaborated with Arturo Brachetti and Roman Polanski. As a speaker, he also hosted the programme Passion Maisons on the Historia channel in Quebec.

Choquette has stated that some of his routines were reproduced without authorization, including a card trick created in 1996 and later performed by David Blaine in his Las Vegas show. He has noted that this type of situation is common in the world of magic, where the legal protection of creative works remains limited and relies primarily on professional ethics. Over the course of his career, he has performed in Las Vegas, where he was among the first Québécois artists to have a residency show.
