Anthony Blake describes his work as the 'jazz of mental magic': the evening is based on constant improvisation. No two audience members react or think alike, which is why Blake adapts his performance each time. The audience sets the pace and determines the structure of the show, whilst the reveal of the tricks is entirely up to him. The performance also looks back on the years during which he has developed new ideas and presentations.
The staging is kept simple: a black room, a table, a stool, subdued, mysterious lighting, accompanied by music and a captivating voice. Blake claims not to read minds, but rather to interpret and influence them. This takes place at very close quarters, with audience members even coming up onto the stage for this.
The show is part of the Festival Internacional de Magia de Canarias 'Asombra'. The Auditorio Insular de Fuerteventura is located at Calle Ramiro de Maeztu 4 in Puerto del Rosario. Information is available by telephone on 928 53 21 86; tickets are sold via Ecoentradas.
