The Piddington’s Quandary by Scott Creasey
Sydney and Lesley Piddington, an Australian mentalism duo, captivated audiences in the late 1940s with their innovative live radio broadcasts for the BBC. Their performances showcased Lesley’s extraordinary talent for long-distance thought reception.
This 30-minute instructional video reveals a straightforward and effective method that allows you to recreate the iconic long-distance telepathy experiments popularized by the Piddingtons. With minimal preparation, you can convincingly transmit randomly chosen information from the audience to another individual, even if they are thousands of miles away. Additionally, the video features a solo remote-viewing routine utilizing the same technique.
The necessary props are quick to set up, and the routine requires no pre-show, electronics, stooges, dual reality, memory work, or verbal codes, enabling you to focus entirely on your performance.
“The Piddington’s Quandary may be your very best ‘packs small plays big’ release yet! TPQ would make an ideal closer for a stage show, a great publicity stunt, or both. Really liked the mini documentary style at the beginning of the DVD. Once again, you have released another brilliant routine with extremely deceptive and clever workings that is easy to execute. No difficult sleights. No unnatural moves. Every step in the sequence smooth and beautifully justified. Seriously underpriced.”– Bill O’Connell
“The Piddington’s Quandary is a top-notch, first-class professional mentalism routine, complete with Scott’s diabolically clever thinking. If you are a fan of Scott’s work, you know exactly what I mean, and are very likely already planning on getting this. If you are new to Scott’s work, you are in for a treat and you will be quite pleased. The Piddington’s Quandary is unique from the vast majority of mentalism routines in that it can be played on a grand scale, with part of the effect occurring in the theater where you are performing, and part of it occurring somewhere else. On top of this, the workings are surprisingly simple and technically very easy to execute. Highly recommended.”– Stunninger – The Magic Cafe
