Colin Cloud: Exposé (Lee Martin for Gag Reflex in Association with Kilimanjaro Live)
By John Sampson | Published on Saturday 27 August 2016
Whatever your preconceptions of mental magic, this will surely prove to be a mesmerising hour of mind invasion, manipulation and control. Cloud is magnetic and quirky, without becoming a charade of himself, as he transfixes the audience with a masterful display of mentalism. Cloud’s tricks are staggeringly elaborate, as he’s able to extricate exact information from people’s minds, ranging from their dates of birth to their most recent dreams. In an epic finale on the streets of Edinburgh, Cloud uses his mental ability to ultimately save his own life. It’s very hard to describe how mystifying Colin Cloud is, you must simply go and see for yourself.
