What Your Audience Will Remember You For . . . Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 18th, 2014
Remarkable. The logic of this routine is worth the price in .pdf form; however, this video offers so much more. When you watch the explanation of the routine, of the patter and movements of the performer, you feel like you are looking at the center of a century old tree. You can see the rings of each time this was performed and the changes that were made as a result. You are not just buying a mentalism effect, you are paying for one man’s work repeated hundreds of times. I found myself laughing out loud at some of the genius involved in the smallest of moves of this routine.
I could not recommend a download more highly than this one. Pure magic. Plus, it’s a 10 minute portion of your show. Definitely the piece you can place before the flashy last goodbye effect in your show, this is the piece they will remember you by.

Mind-Reading at its best! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 16th, 2014
Incredible value. Not crap for hundreds or thousands.
If you can't make this work you don't need to be in the game. Of course it has no collector value, therefore most will not even be interested other than to know “how it works”.
For those who perform for real world audiences this is Mind-Reading at its best!
Bob is a highly intelligent master, A lot of thought has gone to his work. His highly nuanced understanding of mentalism, sound principles and deceptive methods create amazing material for the talented performer.

Gold from Bob Cassidy Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 16th, 2014
Bob Cassidy's Name and Place has has been performed all around the world and on Television not only by Bob, but top Mentalists that he's taught the routine to.

Name and Place is not only for Professional Mentalists. It's also for Magicians that want to add a powerful piece of mentalism to their act, or for hobbyists that want to have a routine they can perform at house parties, family get togethers or any special occasion.

On this Penguin download, Bob teaches all the nuances that make Name and Place a favorite with audiences.. Through literarily 1000's of performances, Bob has honed the routine into what it is today: one of the finest pieces of mentalism ever created.

Insanely Great Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 16th, 2014
I plan on doing this one! Very practical and will mystify just about any audience. Brilliantly executed and, like nearly every great mentalism effect, is easy to do. It's all about the acting. I can't get over how great a billet effect this is...totally ballsy and well taught.

With Proper prep and practice - No Problem Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 26th, 2016
(This review is for Name and Place by Bob Cassidy)
For me this is great. I used it before a live audience yesterday, several weeks after receiving it and just as is, it worked great. Or maybe I performed it great! I will try to personalize it a bit over time but you get everything need covered in the purchase. Bob explains it fully and well and offers several ways to handle some parts which might loom as 'awkward' for some in some places. I like having his options he provides but I performed live for the first time in a meeting room of a restaurant without a hitch, just as he presented it. I ran through it quite a few times in practice but that's just me. I like his perfectionist approach to things and the fact he covers all the bases and explains all the liabilities. I don't like surprises either. Definitely a keeper in my Mentalist 'routines' and is unique enough to be a part of other 'Mental' effects in the same show. I used it as a 'Closer'. No chance of a problem unless the performer is unprepared. I like back ups and outs but once practiced, this one is pretty straightforward. The audience was amazed.

GLAD I PURCHASED THIS!!!!! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 17th, 2014
I was thrown off at first because Bobs Penguin Lecture wasnt exactly clear, which of course its a lecture not a single trick so its understandable. This download, he teaches EVERYTHING in detail. its such a powerful routine, and easy to follow and learn. ANYONE new or old to mentalism should get this!!!

Best purchase I've made on Penguin! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 16th, 2021
I would give this more than 5 stars if I could. This is the one effect in my act that kills, and gets incredible reactions.

People are shocked, amazed, and sometimes even freaked out. I've bought a lot of expensive magical gimmicks but none of them get the same reaction as this one.

Best of all, it's incredibly easy to do and Bob is a fantastic teacher. This one is a muat have and I almost guarantee that you will use it in your show.

Great for beginners & Cassidy will show pointers to Vets Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 1st, 2014
This is a wonderful effect as you can see in the performance video. You can customize it to predict whatever you like, you wouldn't have to choose a name and a place. Not all mentalism effects and malleable in that way. I did this for a party for 8 year old girls but presented it far differently than a company mixer, adult party, etc. The point is, they all loved it!
The method is simple, and honestly I find this to be a very fun effect to perform. Bob Cassidy is a legend, and he goes over every nuance in great detail. It is worth the watch, worth the buy, and worth adding to your repertoire ESP if you are a beginner to mentalism and want to add a powerful effect to your arsenal - but even seasoned mentalists will get something out of this. I like it a great deal.
