One of the variants that you can use with the neo-classic of billet work from our Master Mindreader
Observe his casual and commanding attitude t. I love how he can be this "Stand Up Psychic Entertainer" and work his audience with a routine that feels completely propless.
Some people complaint about the use of fire and fire-alarms. Look how he doesnt even burns that piece of discarded paper, he just do it a little and then throws it into the water.
You dont need to create the reality, just allude to it.
Finally, I invite you to reflect about the use of imagination to provide credibility. He took the time at the beginning to ask specific visual imagery, due his "mindreading premise" (receive thoughts projected from the participants)
Enjoy!
