The ultimate, most comprehensive guide to one of mentalism's most versatile routines. John Archer has performed this routine all over the world and it has become one of his signature pieces. Imagine being anywhere in the world, grabbing a couple of coins, some gaffer tape, a blindfold, pen and paper from the local store and being able to perform a hilarious twenty minute, mind-blowing routine! Now for the first time, John goes in-depth to explain all the secrets and nuances that have made this one of his most requested effects. This is not just a quick trick, it is an entire act that builds and builds into a standing ovation finale. This is the real work on the blindfold routine and it will open up a world of possibilities. Shot in front of a live audience, you will experience John at his very best, performing the routine, and then he goes into every little detail with you, in an informal discussion-style explanation, which is equally entertaining. "Those who think that comedy and mentalism can't be weaved together have not seen John Archer perform. John's comedy is brilliant, fresh and fast, yet it takes absolutely nothing away from the serious mystery of what it is he is performing. In fact quite often the comedy (take his blindfold routine for example) adds to the impossibility of the demonstration. John is a must see for those who are looking for their own character and what the limitations are not." - Banachek "John Archer is as brilliant as he is funny, a true pro in every sense of the word. You will not be disappointed that you have purchased this DVD. I for one listen very hard whenever John talks. He knows his stuff and more importantly he knows what makes a routine and an audience work. Sit back, laugh and enjoy being taught by a master" - Luke Jermay Running Time Approximately 1hr 21min |

Yet the chosen card is gone. Not only that, the named card is found in a locked hotel room, inside an orange held by the spectator or anywhere you can imagine!

That's how close to real mentalism this card effect is to even audiences in the know. For the first time ever Kenton reveals ALL of his personal methods so you cannot fail, and have nothing to fear.

A Completely Impromptu spoon bend with no gaffs or gimmicks! Powerful, Visual, and Close-up! The Gallerian Bend takes the concept of bending a spoon using just the power of your mind to a whole new level! It is a completely impromptu spoon bend that you will immediately add to your close-up repertoire! Easy to perform without any set up and using just a regular spoon. Erick has been literally refining Gallerian over the past 3 years now, and not only trying to make-it visually beautiful, but also making it something very practical to perform in all type of settings. Can this be performed surrounded? Yes! The beautiful thing about gallerian, it's actually viewable completely (Surrounded). This effect could be performed as walkaround, close-up or on stage. Does this use a gimmicked spoon? No! The spoon is not prepared and could be borrowed if you don't mind giving the spoon back to the owner in a bent condition. Can this be performed with a fork rather than a spoon? Yes. We actually think it looks even better! Due to narrower 'tyne section' surface. Running Time Approximately 19 min |
