Products Description

Companionage by Dr. Bill Cushman

So begins Enrique Enriquez’s introduction to Companionage. This astounding collection of effects and essays was compiled as a fundraiser to help Dr. Bill Cushman subsequent to illness and surgery that led to his being unable to work.

Companionage was assembled and formatted by Luke Shield and given a home at his site Imentalism. Dr. Bill has continued to struggle with further surgery, hospitalizations and treatments during which time Imentalism became part of Lybrary.com.

In the interim, Companionage was no longer available. Until now. 230 pages long, the list of contributors reads like a who’s who of mentalism:

8 essays and 24 effects cover the entire range of mentalism by the best minds of our generation. The thought of Companionage lapsing into obscurity is unimaginable.

Some material has previously been published; most of these in rare and hard to find sources, but the majority of the contents were released for the first time in Companionage. Impromptu wonders fitting for audiences of all sizes, powerful close-up and stage effects are all included.

Essays cover invaluable information on nearly all aspects of putting together a powerful performance and how to sell YOURSELF once you’ve done so. There is even a fully scripted lecture on consciousness raising appropriate for a variety of venues.

Companionage was originally released in 2009, receiving rave reviews. Order now and find out why!
