He’s a spirit medium and psychic extraordinaire hailing from the mystical land of Sunderland. Be prepared to be amazed, shocked and slightly confused! Do not miss. "Ian D Montfort, is a spookily skilful, wonderfully observed and hysterically funny character who contacts dead celebrities with incredible results. A monster hit at the Edinburgh Fringe" TIME OUT LONDON “Ian D Montford, a gloriously deadpan pseudo-psychic. His show – Touching the Dead begins with laughable attempts to work the audience and and then Binns starts unleashing faintly inexplicable clairvoyant revelations, leaving most of the room gasping with incredulity. So he can spoof it, and really ‘do it’”. TELEGRAPH “Binns makes a triumphant return as the Sunderland psychic Ian D Montfort, mixing eerily good cold-reading skills with a joyful debunking of the genre” INDEPENDENT “…the character remains hilarious even as the tricks become remarkable. it is two shows for the price of one: pin-sharp character comedy and metaphysical magic to boot” GUARDIAN “¬the style of the act is genius – if it works, it’s impressive, if it doesn’t work, well it’s all part of the joke” CHORTLE “¬his show is a spectacular tour-de-force, showcasing Binns’ exceptional acting and comedic talent” FRINGE REVIEW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
