Barrie Richardson was a prolific thinker in the worlds of magic & mentalism. His three books, Theater of the Mind, Act Two, and Curtain Call are a must-have for any serious student of the mystery arts and a beautiful addition to any magic library.

Theater of the Mind contains page after page, of fresh, practical material, tested and perfected before thousands of audiences; astonishing feats that use only ordinary items, and few of them, entertaining mental experiments that involve the whole audience, that pack small and play big, and that exploit a devilish combination of simplicity and cleverness. 320 Pages Hardbound, Illustrated

Act Two features 54 tricks, ideas and routines, with all the attributes for which Mr. Richardson's work has become known and admired. Most include full presentations that use humanity, humor and an unfaltering sense of drama, that culminate in feats that are clearly impossible and thoroughly amazing. 382 Pages Hardbound, Illustrated

Curtain Call is Mr. Richardson's third major collection of mentalism, and in it he has held nothing back. He opens with the full details for his entire professional act, follows up with dozens of wonderful tricks, routines and tools for the mentalist, and concludes with a unique piece that always brings a strong emotional response and a spontaneous ovation from his audiences. 263 Pages Hardbound, Illustrated
