Where a magician shows the impossible, a mentalist plays with something that comes even closer: your own thoughts. No cards or coins, but a word you only held in your head, a number no one knew, a choice that turned out to be predicted. Hiring a mentalist lifts an event to a different, more intelligent level.
What exactly does a mentalist do?
A mentalist works with the psychology of the audience: suggestion, observation, intuition and timing. The effect is astonishing, because everything happens in the participant's own mind. There is nothing to hold or check, and that is exactly what makes it so unforgettable.
Sudesh has people think of something, predicts choices and reveals information he could not possibly have known. No flashy props, but pure wonder that lingers in conversations long afterwards.
When do you choose mentalism?
Mentalism suits an adult audience particularly well, and events where you want to deliver something intelligent and refined. Think of a corporate dinner, a networking event, a gala or a keynote you want to open a little differently.
Because it revolves around interaction and conversation rather than large props, it works both close-up at the table and on a stage for a large group.

Magician or mentalist, or both?
Many clients hesitate between a magician and a mentalist. The good news: it does not have to be a choice. Sudesh combines both worlds and tunes the balance to your audience and occasion.
Do you mainly want light-hearted wonder during drinks, or rather a restrained, intelligent act at a dinner? In a short conversation we decide together which mix fits your event best.
Hiring a mentalist gives your event something that stays with people: the feeling that someone could briefly look into the guests' minds. Intelligent, personal and astonishing.
