Jheff is back at it again with another cracking book that drags the classic magician's choice into the modern day. It’s basically the closest you’ll get to real mentalism without having to wear a cape. - Bob Cassidy
Have you ever fancied controlling what your audience chooses, using nothing but your voice and a cheeky grin? Spoiler alert: you absolutely can! Magicians have long been in on this little secret, and mentalists practically worship it. Yet, for ages, the keys to pulling this off have been buried under a pile of confusion, leaving many performers a bit sour on this verbal magic trick.
In this brilliant book, Jheff – a performer with over forty years of experience (and an award-winning high school English teacher for good measure) – revisits this completely impromptu technique. He takes a deep dive into the strengths and weaknesses of the usual methods, tossing in fresh insights and nuances that make it all a doddle to grasp and use.
All routines are impromptu and can be performed with just about anything you can scrounge up.
All you need is your voice, a script, and a few borrowed bits and bobs (no fancy gadgets here).
Includes "Celebrimental," a special routine crafted by Jheff just for this book, plus a peek at some classic routines that employ verbal wizardry.
"No matter how experienced you may be, if you study this book you'll become a much better performer than you are now. Thank you, Jheff, for writing such a useful and informative book." - from the forward by Neal Scryer
