BLOWING RASPBERRIES AT MYSTICS AND SKEPTICS
because nobody likes a smarty-pants!
 Peter Campbell-Wells returns to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe to blow big raspberries at the serious po-faced world of psychic entertainment. Mind-reading and clairvoyance is absurd and Pete's show revels in the daftness of it all. Classic feats of psychic prowess are sent on idiotic tangents with Pete's irreverent spin and utter disregard for tradition. Remote viewing, thought reading and fortune telling methods are crudely exploited for the simple and vulgar aims of raising a giggle.Pete’s disregard for the sensibilities of others doesn’t stop at the new-age believers, however. He’s equally happy to poke fun at the new generation of evangelical sceptics, who seem bent of asserting their righteousness while sapping the fun and mystery from anything remotely odd. Just for them, he proudly wears the label of ‘Psychic’!
‘Campbell-Wells clearly has a talent for
reading people (or is actually psychic...)’

In a bid to ‘lighten-up’ attitudes surrounding mentalism and psychic entertainment, Pete applies his psychic-comedic persona - which has been honed and developed in the chaotic world of Britain’s comedy clubs - to present his own peculiar take on fortune-telling, telepathy and clairvoyance.
‘Peter Campbell-Wells?
Never heard of him but I feel he will be great someday!’

‘Psychic?’ is bold, energetic, fun, possibly irresponsible, and thoroughly interactive. It’s also a Free Show, and part of the Laughing Horse’s ever expanding Free Festival programme!
