The Evasons “Mentalist Duo” | October 20th at 7 p.m. in the Johnston Center

The Evasons are one of very few couples who still travel around the globe to carry on the rare and incredible talent known as Second Sight. From the moment they walk on stage, Jeff & Tessa Evason interact with people in the audience, making marvelous extrasensory connections. People are often speechless when Tessa perceives birth dates, personal items, a serial number on any bill in a borrowed wallet or even the name of distant loved ones — all while standing on stage wearing a blindfold. Her intuitive gifts will captivate you. You might even unleash a spooked-out shriek! Since 1983 The Evasons have traveled to over 35 countries, performing at private parties and gala events. Network TV appearances include NBC, CBS, FOX, CW Network, Discovery Channel, and Netflix. And they have received some of the top awards in the world of magic and psychic entertainment. Still feeling a little skeptical? Remember, there are no stooges, hidden wires or secret electronic communication devices. In fact, they will give $100,000 to anyone who can prove otherwise!
