An excellent two-person act that combines Q&A and a verbal code that'll convince your audience that ESP exists!

Audiences can never get enough of witnessing the amazing psychic chemistry between the suave performer and the onstage "medium" who receives the "psychic broadcasts" from her partner.

If you've seen the motion picture "Nightmare Alley," then you already know how stunning a successful two-person code act can be.

Now, with your partner and some practice, you, too can present an act that gets you into the top echelons of the live performance world.

What separates this method from others on the market is that this one is specifically designed for the Q&A (question-and-answer) act. Audience members submit questions to the performer, who stands in the audience, and the medium provides the answer from the stage.

Ask any mentalist and they will tell you that the Q&A act is the most captivating and memorable routine that you can do. Many feature performers (Kreskin and Dunninger among them) have staked their careers on it. Now with the release of this book, you can do it too.

No devices, electronics or gimmics. Nothing to replace or wear out.
