Magic is about an experience. It is an experience that the performer creates for his audience. This experience allows the people watching to open up to the idea of the impossible happening. It is in these moments that we witness incredible things. Cards change before our eyes. Glasses seem to move across the table without explanation  In some extreme cases audience members vanish from the stage. Magic opens up an entirely new way of thinking for those witnessing it. One of the more mysterious forms of modern magic is the field of mentalisim. This kind of magic focuses more on the mind then any kind of manipulation of physical objects. In this case the object being controlled is the spectators mind. Some performers claim to actually have these types of manipulative powers. Others attribute it to the honing of a special set of skills. However you look at it,Mentalism Offers A New Spin On Some Old Tricks Articles there is no denying the draw of having ones thoughts presented to them by a complete stranger. It is one of those beautifully frighting experiences we has human beings can sometimes be interested in having.

As we have said in some previous posts, Las Vegas has always been home to some of the most unique entertainment experiences in the world. Anything you could imagine is possible when you visit Las Vegas. There are shows and attractions that give people the chance to do and see things that they never thought they would get to do. With this plethora of experiences there are bound to be those that are a bit more mysterious than others. One such example would be 'The Mentalist' starring Gerry McCaimbridge. Gerry grew up practicing magic and soon began adding more and more mindreading to his routines. After touring the country at age 15 it was clear that Gerry had a knack for entertaining crowds of all sizes. As the character of 'The Mentalist' grew so did Gerry's notoriety. He starred in his own off-Broadway show, TV special and has assisted major TV networks with the creation of TV series based on the concept of mentalisim. This multi-award winner is now performing nightly in Las Vegas. His show is the longest running mentalism show in Vegas history and has garnered Gerry numerous awards.

Now it's your turn to experience the comedy, magic and of course mindreading of The Mentalist, Gerry McCaimbridge. You won't believe what you are seeing as he is able to guess even the most intimate details from total strangers. Is it just a trick? Or is it something more? You'll have to see it for yourself to answer that question.
