Let The Audience Do The Show by George B. Anderson

In this lesser known manuscript, George Anderson shares some of his favorite audience participation stunts for the mental worker. Clever tests designed to get the audience into the act immediately and keep them engaged. They range from psychological gambits directed at the entire audience to sensational effects performed on-stage with audience volunteers. These include one of the most sensational Bank Night presentations you'll find anywhere in which five envelopes are suspended by file clips. You explain to the audience that four of these pay envelopes contain a plain piece of paper and the fifth, a high denomination bill.

Anderson's Poker Chip Prediction is another gem and a surefire winner on any program. Other material includes An Uncanny Divination, A Daylight Darkroom S
