About Me


Check me out at www.shwood.com ! I do a bizarre magic show with fire eating, escapes, mind reading, crazy dangerous stunts and award-winning comedy.
I live in Austin, TX, but travel all over the United States performing most of the year. I'm happily married to Bonnie, and I'm nuts over my 2 year old daughter, Penelope.
