Bill Gladwell executes a very exclusive stage act that implicates a high level of audience participation. He involves audience members both on the stage and from their seats. Bill produces an experience that will be talked about and recollected for a long time. He uses his skills as a hypnotist and combines that with psychology, and directed awareness.

He uses five senses to create the illusion of the sixth. He will stand in front of you and pull thoughts directly from your mind. His prediction will be jaw dropping. He will read you like an open book.

A simple example, Bill may ask someone to concentrate on any landmark in the world. Without anything written down or said out loud by the person, Bill describes the location and names the landmark.
