The Further Education Stand Up Show:
Blank Night: John"s
extremely clean version of the "bank night" plot is a super-charged
routine that is jam-packed with perfect in-built comedy, audience
participation and a plot packs in plenty of entertainment value for an
opening routine! Something, nothing, mine, yours or... sex?!
De-Ja-Tu:
A girl is thinking of a card and a man is invited to deal freely
through a shuffled deck of cards. Amidst a cavalcade of comedy, the
couple end up with a coincidence that is as baffling as it is
entertaining; in short, a brilliant two-person mind reading effect that
appears to happen between the minds of the spectators.
One Lucky Number: Serial
divination given the Archer treatment! Imagine taking a usually smaller
effect and turning it into a full stand-up performance piece! Think
serial number, burnt & restored note and signed note in wallet; all
rolled into one mega, magical extravaganza!
Soundbox: A
hilarious routine in which you gamble everything on a simple game of
choice! One box, one lock, five keys and tonnes of entertainment! A
well-constructed presentation and excellent method make this a logical,
funny and baffling lock and key routine. Bet everything you have on the
power of your auditory sense!
Comedy Killer: A brilliant
new routine based around a very funny presentation about learning to
become a mind reader - your audience will become engaged in your studies
with Professor Hoffmann when honing your ESP abilities, before they
themselves get the chance to test their own. One envelope, one choice
and one stunning climax!
Starstruck: Stars of Stage &
Screen are the theme for this popular item from John"s act. A real
lesson in how small props can be used to play a much larger routine that
is clean and direct mindreading at its very best. A simple plot that
can open up a string of revelations that will give your spectator the
feeling you are really reading their thoughts.
Stick with It: Multiple
audience participation; several random numbers, one prediction and a
stunning kicker that will knock their socks off! A multiple number
routine like none you have ever seen before. No gimmicked notepads
required, this is a really organic approach to the add-a-number plot
using a small number of items to create a routine large enough to fill
an entire stage.
Streetwise: John"s brilliant book-test
that uses remote viewing as a premise, a street map for a prop and a
series of revelations with different audience members; this is destined
to become a classic and combines all the best elements of the best book
test routines to take your audience on the ultimate mental journey!
Please note that although the prop is explained in full, the book itself
is not provided and needs to be purchased separately.
BONUS: John"s Professional Close Up "Set" Performed & Explained:
Just for You" & "52 Leaver: A

"YOU."

strolling performer that wants to present powerful close-up mentalism in
