Rafael Benatar was born in Caracas, Venezuela and currently lives in Madrid, Spain. He is a professional magician, author and lecturer, and also a renowned performer on the lute, guitar, and several other historical plucked instruments.



His magic performances feature a combination of magic, humor and mystery with an artistic approach, either on stage or at close quarters.

 

His international reputation has taken him to over three hundred cities of the world. He is one of the most active members of the Escuela Mágica de Madrid and one of the few magicians that performs regularly in all three rooms of the Magic Castle in Hollywood.



His unique style as well and his command of five languages make him the ideal guest for corporate and private events, banquets, and trade shows and theatres.
