Mind games: Mark Salem comes to demonstrate his powers
Look here too
Mark Salem's Mind Games Extra
Tricycle Theatre, Camden, from 10 July, £11-£18; 020 7328 1000, www.tricycle.co.uk
Mark Salem is billed as a 'world-renowned mentalist', which obviously marks him out as more than just your average nutter.
This American mind-reader is certainly an interesting character, having spent more than 30 years unlocking the minds of his audiences while assisting the FBI along the way.
Salem uses a mixture of techniques to demonstrate how the mind creates reality and meaning but without the showmanship, so expect a tamer equivalent of our very own 'mentalist' Derren Brown.
Although the performance may leave you a jibbering wreck, it could work out much cheaper than a trip to the shrink.
