An entertaining expose of the methods so-called psychics and mediums employed "way back when" to convince others they had connections to the supernatural and to the deceased on "the other side".

Oh, the topic of extrasensory perception is very relevant to me. But I think that at any time there have been and are charlotans in magical and psychic practices.

I loved this show! Arguably the most controversial and divisive show at the Hollywood Fringe this year! A departure from traditional theatre which is welcome and refreshing. Engaging, entertaining, and I even learned a thing or two. It attracted a large crowd after the show as the performer gave an informal Q&A outside - it definitely got people talking!...
