Mentalism and Its Presentation By Robert Nelson
Description
Mentalism is a business - a highly lucrative one - and should be regarded as such. It is a serious form of very unusual entertainment, and is worthy and demanding of a high degree of perfection. However, unless Mentalism is properly presented, it ceases to become true mentalism, and immediately falls into disrepute. The object of the mentalist is not to just entertain, and perhaps mystify his audience with various effects, but to make his spectators believe that he is actually doing true MENTAL MIRACLES.
Chapters include:
THE SERIOUS BUSINESS OF MENTALISM
APPROACH TO MENTALISM
FACTORS TO RECOGNIZE
FURTHER THOUGHTS ON MENTALISM
THE BUILD-UP
PUBLICITY AND PROMOTIONS
YOUR PROGRAM
PROGRAMMING
PROGRAMS OF FAMOUS MENTALISTS
PRESENTATION
COMEDY RELIEF
PATTER LINES - QUOTES
In "Mentalism and Its Presentation," Bob Nelson and Syd Bergson explain step-by-step how to achieve success in mentalism and why you must approach it differently than magic. 33 pages, completely re-typeset, top quality edition.
