There's
magic and there's mentalism - Nicholas Tweedy's preference is mentalism but he
offers both in this extraordinary show. Lots of card tricks and non-threatening
audience participation in an informal and relaxed presentation. It almost feels
like you're at home with friends. With each 'trick' the stakes are raised and
it becomes harder to believe what you're seeing, but every time Tweedy manages
to prove he knows what we're thinking. It's the second time I've seen this kind
of mentalism in action and despite my cynicism (apparently Australian audiences
are among the most sceptical) I'm now a convert - I believe that mentalists can
control what we think! There is no other rational explanation for some of the things
that happen in Again Amazing. Presentation
could be slicker but my guess is 'Nick' wants to keep it down home and cosy.
Treat yourself and go test out your own cynicism.
