Bishop and his assistant, Hess, promoted themselves as a touring magic and illusion show. To jump start their career while still attending college, they sent demo tapes to a number of resorts in the Poconos area, including Caesar's resorts, and Woodloch Pines, among others. From these demo tapes, Bishop began booking shows at several resorts. As more bookers became aware of the new duo, they started getting booked at colleges and universities. Today, Bishop mainly performs at larger venues in cities all over the United States, as well as on Disney Cruise Line and Celebrity Cruises. Bishop has performed at The Bamboozle Festival at venues such as the Midland Arena, in Midland, TX, the famous Magic Castle in Hollywood, CA, the US Naval Academy, and the US Coast Guard Academy.
Although Bishop is not the only grand illusionist in the genre and has competition such as David Copperfield and Criss Angel, he does currently have one of the largest touring illusion show, as well as illusions performed by few others. Bishop also uses more humor in his shows than most illusionists, as well as a number of unique illusions, ranging in type from challenge magic to close-up magic, to manipulation magic. Throughout the performance, he invites a number of audience members, children and adults, to come onstage and assist in illusions. Bishop's show also contains a large amount of technologically advanced equipment, including plasma and LCD TV screens, iPods and iPhones, and a modern rock and pop music soundtrack that is continuously changing. With the use of modern technology and equipment, Bishop is often billed as "America's Hottest Illusionist".
