Alexander Marsh Proper Mentalism Academy (24th July 7pm BST)

Alexander Marsh, also known as Alex McAleer, will be sharing his ‘Proper Mentalism’ in an unforgettable Academy. Renowned for his exceptional billet work, get ready for mind-blowing one-ahead handlings, book tests, and much more!

If you’re not familiar with Alex, he’s a leading figure in mentalism, touring internationally with Champions of Magic and performing at prestigious venues like the Hammersmith Apollo. He’s also a regular performer on cruise ships and has appeared on major TV shows like ITV’s Good Morning Britain and NBC’s Access Hollywood as well as Blue Peter.

Alex will be teaching his heavily refined material, including:

* A book test that works in any environment, using un-gimmicked, even borrowed books.

* Several handlings for a ‘mental epic’ style routine, ideal for stage, parlour, and close-up performances — all without gimmicked boards or props. He’ll also share routine ideas that feel like real mind reading.

* A unique method for revealing a thought-of destination on a map.

* Multiple handlings and routines for reading minds using just blank cards and pens.
