Nique Tan Chats - Illumination by Luke Jermay

[@robs6406]

A great well constructed piece of Mentalism. It’s engaging on several levels for the audience, ie visual, and audio. It allows for your own great scripting, and provides over 14 minutes of quality, memorable performance

Yes, I too am very keen on Luke Jermay's work and wondered about buying yet another book test. Thank you for this review, Nique. I think the routine is very creative and unusual. It also seems to end at the highest level of impossibility so there's a sense of building to a climax. I think the impact depends very heavily on scripting and presentation so this is really for a confident and eloquent actor. There is room to adapt the script to suit your personality, for example, the making of cheeky personal comments about spectators is completely unnecessary. (I always thought of Jermay as a very serious kind of guy so the humour here is a bit of a surprise.) I note that the two book set is quite reasonably priced compared to Josh Zandman's more recent releases (that seem to get more and more complicated.)

Some have commented about the performance style but it wasn’t an issue for me as: - it’s Luke Jermay and I know how he’s like. - I can’t perform like him anyways. 🤣 Thank you for tuning in and contributing your thoughts too! 🙏🏻

Great review Nique!! Great idea for Luke to have the font in the books larger. Quite often spectators need glasses and that will help. I’ve also added to my prop list a magnifying glass 🔎 and small flashlight 🔦 for my book test. Both have been lifesavers when trying to keep the pace of your show moving!! Thank you!🙏🏽

I don't have a need for a book test right now, but this seems like a great one, thanks for the review!

[@cromwandelure9901]

This was the best book test I’ve bought. I always love Luke Jeramy’s material but this stands out. Such a great routine and effect.

Like Copperfiled, Jeramy has more hair on his head than he did 30 years ago. Hmmmmmm…..
