Reynold Sebelen Medina (Alexander) began as a child performer when his father, amateur magician Roberto Sebelen, pulled coins out of his son's ears during the show. His father continued to teach Reynold his first magic acts, which grew into a lifelong passion.
Reynold became a member of the Society of Young Magicians at age 13, and later became president of the Puerto Rican chapter. He was two-time first place winner for “Stage Magic,” the most prestigious award from this society. He was soon initiated into the Society of American Magicians, the most prestigious magicians’ society.
Among his professional accomplishments, he is responsible for the vanishing of Puerto Rico’s Capitol Building, successfully re-creating Houdini’s Chinese Water Torture Cell escape, holding the Guinness World Record for fastest straight jacket escape, and being a featured performer at famed The Magic Castle in Hollywood. Alexander also devotes his time and craft with children at the San Jorge Children’s Hospital and Ronald McDonald’s Foundation, among others.
The grand opening of his show at the Clarion is scheduled for Friday, May 23rd.
