Sisti
The Milford Historical Society will present an evening of “Magic, Mystery and Mind-Reading” on Monday, Nov. 17 with Jim Sisti, a well-known Connecticut magician and mentalist.
The event, which starts at 7 p.m., is free and open to the public at the Mary Taylor Memorial Methodist Church at 168-176 South Broad St. in Milford.
Sisti has been performing magic full-time for more than 30 years. His brand of comedy magic and mentalism has taken him from local nightspots and comedy clubs to the off-Broadway stage. His list of clients includes numerous Fortune 500 companies, actor Richard Dreyfuss and many others. Sisti is also a mentalist – a performing art in which he appears to demonstrate highly developed mental or intuitive abilities. As a performance art, mentalism involves using observation, subtle techniques and psychological principles to create the illusion of superhuman mental abilities like mind-reading or prediction.
