Todd Robbins in New Jersey. The Charlatan's Séance

JPK · 5th October 2007, 03:10 PM

Good evening.
If you are in the area, you should definetly go see this. I was there last night and it's a great show.

The Charlatan's Séance
October 2 - October 31
created and performed by
Todd Robbins

A frighteningly believable ruse
Part magic, part mentalism, part shamanism and all sham, deceptionist extraordinaire Todd Robbins creates the spine-chilling illusion that the dead have returned to walk among the living! This participatory thrill-ride explores the seance experience from all angles. Hearts rattle, bells ring, apparitions appear and poltergeists pounce in this haunting and hilarious expose of spiritual chinanery.
May be too intense for audiences under 13 years old.

Richard Wiseman a long time ago, he never looks any older, does he.

Definitely! I went last night and it was probably Todd's best show. (I had previously seen Carnival Knowledge, etc).

Chip and Grace Denman were in the audience and we all had a drink with Todd afterwards.

Definitely go see it if you can...

No fair. I'd really like to see this.

Don't s'pose he mentioned anything about bringing it across the pond to the UK?

Yeah, but you should see that self-portait he hangs on his wall.

I think first, Todd is trying to get it across the pond to... NYC :-)

Hey, with the weak dollar, you have no excuse, fly on over!
