Quite possibly the best Birmingham magician wouldn’t actually call himself a Birmingham magician.
Birmingham magician Brook is actually what is known ‘in the trade’ as a Mentalist.
No that doesn’t mean he is crazy!
Mentalism is a cousin to magic and the chances are that any Birmingham magician that you care to pick up the phone and call will know exactly what Mentalism is.
Essentially the difference is that while magicians use sleight of hand to amaze and wow you, a Mentalism will use sleight of mind in order to make your jaw drop to the floor.
The way that the entertainment is provided is exactly the same. Both a Birmingham magician and a Birmingham mentalist will work close-up, mix and mingle, table-to-table or provide a stage show.
For your guests or delegates the largest difference is that they have most likely never seen a mentalist live before, whereas they may well have been entertained by a magician numerous times. This provides a very attractive element to hiring a Birmingham mentalist over a Birmingham magician as you can bring a very unique form of entertainment to your event.
Is a Birmingham magician more affordable than a Birmingham mentalist?
The prices for both a Birmingham magician and mentalist should be pretty comparable. This means you shouldn’t be paying any more for a Birmingham mentalist than you would a Birmingham magician.
However, as with all services, quality and experience will change the prices that you pay. A more experienced magician will cost more than a guy who got a magic box set for his Birthday. The extra cost is insurance money that your guests will enjoy themselves and are in the hands of a capable professional.
While Brook is one of the world’s top professional mentalists he is actually from Birmingham, meaning that travel costs are none-existent for performances in the West Midlands area.
Add to that that Brook likes to perform a lot so keeps his rates extremely affordable and it brings a unique form of event entertainment into everyone’s grasp.
