Experience interactive, mind-blowing feats of Second Sight and telepathy when The Evasons take the stage at the University of Maine at Presque Isle on Thursday, April 19 at 7 p.m. at the Auditorium in Wieden Hall. This event is free and the public is encouraged to attend.
During the early 19th century, a small number of married couples gained significant notoriety with performances called Second Sight. The Evasons are one of the only couples in history who have mastered this unusual talent. The couple has been delivering these performances for over 30 years, and they continue to travel around the globe carrying this mysterious, but interesting tradition.
This celebrity mind reading duo has performed in over 35 countries across the globe and made numerous TV appearances on major networks like NBC, FOX, CBS, CW Network, Discovery Channel, and Netflix. They’ve been featured on Penn and Teller’s international show Fool Us and performed at venues such as the World Famous Magic Castle in Hollywood and the Great American Comedy Festival in the Johnny Carson Theater. They have even performed in front of 18,000 people at an NBA Halftime Show.
The Psychic Entertainers Association gave them its most prestigious award for distinguished professionalism. They were also the first recipients of “The Mentalism Award” from the Milbourne Christopher Foundation and the only mentalists ever to receive the “SARMOTI Award,” which legendary magicians Siegfried and Roy present to their favorite act in Las Vegas.
For those who are skeptical, The Evasons state that everything they do is real and there are no plants or hidden communication devices used; in fact, according to their website, they’ll offer a $100,000 reward if anyone can prove otherwise.
Don’t miss your chance to see the duo that Fox Television called “The most amazing mind reading act you will ever see!”
