The Psychic Pickpocket by Nico Heinrich
Stories with predictable endings are pretty boring, right
Now, most mind reading effects are just like that. They think of something and the performer reveals it. The audience expects him to succeed as he calls himself a mind reader – so, there are no real surprises in the performance. You might argue that the audience can’t be 100% sure if the experiment would work or not – true, but the finale still isn’t surprising.
The Psychic Pickpocket offers a great solution. You will learn how to make ANY mind reading (that being a book test, peek, CT, progressive anagram etc.) more interesting and surprising. Additionally, this is the perfect framework for you to practice actual reading techniques without fear.
Note: This doesn’t involve actual pickpocketing, we only use it as a metaphor.
Five stars review:
This presentation fell immediately into place within my working performances.
It makes me smile every single time that I use it. The concept behind the presentation is perfect; it’s one of my favourite sections within my performance set.
Whilst not containting a new effect, this presentation given is well worth the small asking price! Our art form of mentalism is mainly about the premises after all, and this is a great one.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
This presentational angle is perfect for hitting the spectators HARD, when they least expect it. I love it, I use it, it’s great!
