Lecture:
Entertaining People with Easy, Interesting, Fun, and Amazing
Mentalism
His Mission as an Corporate Entertainer: To get people to
relax, to have fun, to feel safe, to experience something
amazing, and to forget about - for at least the time he is
on stage - the problems and difficulties they may be facing
in their lives.
As
a Corporate Entertainer, Mentalism is his means to achieving
this mission.
Mentalism
is a form of entertainment in which the performer creates
the illusion of extraordinary cognitive or mental abilities
..
Chuck
has become a multi millionaire from performing his special
style of corporate mentalism which he will share with us all.

Chuck
Hickok did indeed lecture at our home last Thursday. It is
with mixed feelings that I report on the lecture. I am afraid
that it may be turning many more magicians to mentalism and
has the potential to cause the ranks of PEA to swell. It was
one of the best lectures I have had at our home. Several of
the attendees said it was the best lecture they have ever
seen. I don't think praise can get much higher than that.
For
magicians who have had no previous experience with performing
mentalism, it was way beyond a primer/crash course...it was
a gift of an entire working repertoire, plus a way of thinking
about construction and presentation that should serve them
for the rest of their performing career. For those of us who
are a bit more experienced, it reminded us of many important
basics and along with some great tips that we didn't know,
but more importantly, that some of the simple things we forget
or pass by are so incredibly effective for "real audiences".
If
you get the chance to see Chuck lecture, don't miss the opportunity.
More importantly, warn magicians to stay away...we don't need
them taking our business ;)
(Note:
Marc DeSouza invites the top magicians and mentalists to lecture
in his home theater which seats thirty. Marcs
home is the top place to lecture in the Philadelphia area.)
