Nicholas Wallace: The mind reader

Nicholas Wallace will be bringing his show "The mind reader" to the Hamilton Fringe Festival this month.

From the show's Facebook page:

No fancy props, no scantily clad assistants and no special effects, just bamboozling feats of magic and mind reading. Not a serious show, but a serious attempt to present magic and mind reading as a performance art. All these elements combined create a show that is mysterious, challenging and most importantly, entertaining.

NAMED “BEST IN FRINGE” TWO YEARS IN A ROW BY THE HAMILTON FRINGE FESTIVAL.
NAMED “PATRONS PICK” AT THE 2010 LONDON FRINGE FESTIVAL

Ticket information available at http://www.hamiltonfringe.ca/
