Sorcerer or illusionist (8)
I believe the answer is:
magician
I believe this is a double definition.
'sorcerer' is the first definition.
(I know that sorcerer can be written as magician)
'illusionist' is the second definition.
(I know that magician is a type of illusionist)
(Other definitions for magician that I've seen before include "Conjuror or sorcerer" , "One working wonders" , "Wizard like cartoon Mandrake" , "Conjurer, illusionist" , "Sorcerer, wizard" .)
