The Blurb
A direct demonstration of thought reading.
Your spectator thinks of a random word and nothing else.
They do not write or speak their word.
You begin to verbalise the thoughts you receive in real time and commit to one specific word. This is the exact word your spectator thinks of.
You suggest that though a process of imagined and physical actions they should think about a new word, this time one which they can draw.
Very cleanly and directly you verbally reveal your understanding of their image.
You are exactly right, every time.
No envelopes, no index cards, no business cards, no pads, no impressions, no special pens or paper, no wallets, no electronic s, no multiple realities, no mirrors, no apps, no updates, no tearing, no folding.
You will receive an instructional booklet and two sets of custom tools required for Rudiment.
“This is a great example of how to create an organic, apparently impromptu routine out of classic ideas and some creative thinking. Seemingly unprepared demonstrations of mentalism can create astonishing impact. Chris uses common everyday items to create a flowing, natural, non-performance where he convincingly reads someone’s mind twice! It’s a very disarming sequence.”
– MARC PAUL
Jheff's Guide
WHAT IT IS:
44-page booklet plus two sets of tools
HOW ACCURATE OR COMPLETE THE BLURB IS:
This is misleading and inaccurate. The chosen word comes from a book (which is not mentioned) and the performer is writing revelations on bookmarks. There are a couple of other points, but I can’t delve into those without revealing the method.
SET-UP AND RE-SET:
There is a one-time set-up. After that, the re-set takes a second or two.
WHAT’S NOT INCLUDED THAT YOU NEED OR NEED TO KNOW:
You will need to supply your own paperback book and a Sharpie. You may also need to print up additional bookmarks as necessary.
SUITABLE VENUES:
Close-up, Parlour
JHEFF’S JUDGMENT:
Though the ad copy is misleading as to what this is, Scott Creasey always delivers a strong, practical routine. This one, a version of Annemann’s A Question and Answer, certainly doesn’t disappoint in its effectiveness and well-thought out construction.
