This will seem like an absolute miracle to your audience.
Effect - From a list of over 100 celebrities, 3 participants choose a celebrity each secretly in their minds. Nothing is written down. The first participant chooses some gifts for her chosen celebrity.
And you are able to reveal the celebrity in her mind. The 2nd and 3rd participants also choose gifts for their respective celebrities – but only secretly and silently in their minds. And yet you reveal their respective celebrities.
In a different scenario, some of the participants can either lie to you or tell the truth about their choice of gifts – and yet you are able to reveal the celebrities they are merely thinking of.
With this you will have an impossible and stunning mind reading routine in your wallet, pocket or mobile phone. The core method is a refreshing and unconventional twist on a conventional principle. The effect is instantly repeatable with a different outcome each time. And you can perform this for a single participant or 2 or 3 or any number of participants simultaneously – if you can personally handle it – the method itself is not a limitation. To top it all, this is easy to learn and perform and has an interesting back story, should you choose to use it.
This routine can be performed in multiple ways. You can go completely digital. In this option, you simply copy the images of the effect on to your mobile phone and you are set to go. You do not need any apps or even an internet connection to perform this. Simply use the images stored on your phone.
Or this routine can be performed completely personally. In this option you need to print out the images of the effect and keep them in your wallet or pocket and you are always ready to perform.
There is a third option of a combo of personal and digital ways. This is my preferred option. Here you carry a couple of images on your phone and a few small printed cards (3 inches x 2 inches) in your wallet/pocket. But whatever option you may choose, it is a one time preparation and once you are set you can perform anytime and anywhere to anyone.
There are no sleights, no preshow, no stooges or instant stooges. There are no
anagrams, no psyforces, no secret writing, no peeking, no impression devices, no one aheads, no dual reality and no multiple outs. The core method is language independent, so can be adapted to any language. The routine can instantly be repeated with a different outcome each time. You can perform this one on one, close up, street, parlor, stage and in virtual shows too. You can even perform this remotely on a video call. This perfectly fits the description of "packs very small and plays very big".
