Magic and Mentalism of Barrie Richardson #3 by Barrie Richardson and L&L video DOWNLOAD

Build a full-length performance around memory, metaphor, and audience participation with Magic and Mentalism of Barrie Richardson #3, a video download by Barrie Richardson and L&L. In this third volume, “Mental Aerobics: Memory and Metaphor,” playing cards, a magic square, and a torn issue of Time become memorable demonstrations of mental ability.

• Fast card revelations: In “Quartet,” a spectator shuffles the cards before four participants receive them, and Richardson reveals the cards with speed and accuracy.
• Memory demonstrations: “The Human Movie Projector” features a demonstration involving 46 cards, while the audience remembers the order of the other six.
• Magic square and metaphor: “Zebras and The Magic Square” uses audience interaction to explore how people can overlook alternatives.
• Distinctive demonstrations: “The Suspended Rice Jar Metaphor” presents a jar of rice supported by a thin chopstick, and “Sun and Moon Memories” uses touch to communicate words, numbers, and pictures.
• Audience-centered finale: In “The Memorized Time Magazine,” audience members receive pages from a torn current issue, then call out a page for Richardson to describe in detail.

Across these routines, Richardson blends close-up mentalism, card demonstrations, and storytelling, with moments that invite the audience to take part. The video runs approximately 2 hours and 35 minutes, giving you a substantial collection of material to study for your next mentalism performance.
