Mind Power lecture show > Information for Agents and
HirersThis page is for Agents and anyone else
interested in representing me or selling my lecture show to potential clients.
If you are interested in selling me as a speaker, lecturer or
entertainer, you probably need the information on this website presented in a way that you
can actually use. Here are files which you can download and exploit however you see fit.
They are all available in three formats:
- as a 'plain' web page which you can copy and adapt
- as a Word document
- and as a .pdf file which you can open using Adobe Acrobat
Here are the files for download.
[ Downloadable files to be added ]
Technical requirements for the lecture show
Lighting: The audience need to be able to
see me, and I need to be able to see the audience. That's it. So if you have house lights,
keep them on because otherwise I'm just staring into darkness and that's no good.
Sound: Everyone needs to be able to hear
me. I have good vocal projection, and I have successfully entertained 300 people without a
microphone or amplification. However, if it's a larger group, or if it's just a good idea
for me to use a microphone, then you will have to provide it. The microphone must
be the type of radio microphone that clips to the lapel of my jacket, so that I can move
around freely and have both my hands free. I regret that the so-called 'Lavalier' type
solution, which involves a sort of 'sling' to hold a standard stage mic around the neck at
chest level, is neither practical nor acceptable.
Staging: I need to be able to get to the
audience, and some of them will need to be able to get to me.
If people are behind me or to the sides, they will probably not get a
very good view, but this is not a problem in terms of the illusions and impossible
demonstrations I perform.
I do not work from notes or a script as it's all in my head. So I do
not use a lecturn or a stand.
I need a medium-sized table on which to place a few props, and a chair
or two. That's all. I would prefer it if the speaking or stage area was otherwise as clear
as possible, and with a plain backdrop.
