Jackson Ridd is a Los Angeles–based mentalist and magician whose performances blend psychological insights with theatrical flair. A resident star at Black Rabbit Rose, Rideau Speakeasy, and the Wonzimer Gallery, Jackson delivers immersive stage shows and intimate close‑up routines. His work has been praised as “both perplexing and haunting,” reflecting his talent for forging deep, psychic connections with audiences.

His television and festival credits include appearances on CW’s Masters of Illusion Season 11 and Miss Brown at the Tribeca Festival. At Tribeca, he showcased sleight‑of‑hand mastery for a documentary on advantage play, reinforcing his reputation as a magician who transcends simple tricks.

Jackson’s approach is rooted in his fascination with the subconscious. His early interest in pendulum rituals, I‑Ching, and spiritual play shaped his focus on mentalism over conventional magic. He seeks to elevate the everyday, inviting audiences to see the beauty hiding in perception.

Beyond entertainment, he’s committed to giving back—supporting youth arts education and addressing homelessness in Los Angeles. This sense of purpose merges into his artistry: he sees magic not just as illusions, but as tools for empathy and connection.

Off stage, Jackson channels his energy into adventurous pursuits like rock climbing, scuba diving, and sports cars. These challenges mirror his magical ethos: curiosity, physicality, and pushing boundaries. His broad interests fuel the creative spark that defines both his lifestyle and performance.
