Mentalism From Copenhagen by Dennis Hermanzo

Mentalism from Copenhagen – New Routines with Classic Ideas by Dennis Hermanzo. This is a book several years in the making, and one we are very excited about at Stevens Magic. As many of you know, we are known for Mentalism. We received an advance copy of this book from Dennis, and it was thoroughly vetted, reviewed by several well-known luminaries in the industry. The concepts are clear, concise and easy to execute. If I have to make an , in terms of style and format, it is very similar to the hugely successful Luca Volpe – Psychic Show Book . In the end it is book that we are very proud to have bear the Stevens Publishing Name and is our first project of 2016.

If you are not familiar with Dennis, do not let this deter you. Dennis is a very well studied, and honed performer. In his own words:“There are 19 effects in the book! (197 pages) Every effect in this book has been performed many times in real situations, except one! Using classic principles is why they work. I have learned from the best, Bob Cassidy, Richard Osterlind and Banachek. Their work inspired my life and set a blueprint for my years in this wonderful world of Mentalism.” – Dennis Hermanzo.

Testimonials:

“Mr. Dennis Hermanzo’s book really surprised me. I was very happy to see his use of traditional methods in very straight-forward effects that are really worth doing! Dennis explains each routine in nice and direct terms using only the minimal amount of suggested patter sot hat you can get straight to it and learn the material! As a person who has performed most of my life, I like to think I can recognize good work – this is “good work!” You won’t go wrong with this book. It is packed with good usable stage mentalism.” – Richard Osterlind.
