The Journey by Rick Maue (Instant Download)
Imagine this: Five audience members freely name any city from around the world, and the performer writes these names on a dry erase board. These cities are also written down, sealed in five separate envelopes, and mixed by the audience. Five other audience members then select an envelope each and take a seat on stage, where a row of six chairs faces the audience—three to the left, three to the right, and an open space in the middle for the performer to stand.
The performer instructs the five assistants to inspect their envelopes carefully, ensuring there is no way to read or distinguish the contents. He even turns his back, allowing them to compare and exchange envelopes if they choose. This emphasizes that there is no possible way for anyone—including the performer—to know which envelope contains which city.
Holding up the marker board, the performer asks another audience member to name any one of the five cities, which becomes the target city. The performer then instructs the five seated assistants to open their envelopes and read the contents secretly. He asks them to stand and concentrate on their city.
Confirming the target city, the performer takes the final assistant by the hand and walks back and forth across the stage. One by one, he names the four cities to be eliminated, and the assistants holding those envelopes sit down—until only one person remains standing. This person indeed has the target city, proving the performer’s ability to not only find the target city but also read the thoughts of each assistant, locating all five cities along the way.

Imagine this:Â Five different audience members each freely name any city from around the world, and while doing so, the performer writes the names on a dry erase board. The names of the five cities are also written down, sealed in five separate envelopes, and then mixed, by the audience members. After laying out the five envelopes on a table, the performer has five other audience members come forward. Each one of them selects the envelope of their choosing, and one at a time, they take a seat on the stage. (There is a row of six chairs facing the audience–with three to the left and three to the right, and an open space in between for the performer to stand.)
The performer instructs the five assistants to inspect their envelopes carefully. He asks them to hold them up in the light to make sure that there is no way to read what is written inside. He also asks them to make sure that there is no possible way to tell one envelope from the other. In fact, he turns his back and allows the assistants to not only compare the envelopes, but to also exchange them among the people that they are seated with if they choose.
In essence, the performer drives home the point that there is no possible way for anyone–including him–to know which envelope contains which city.
Holding up the marker board, he asks another person in the audience to stand and name any one of the five cities. Her selection now becomes the target city. The performer asks her to come forward to begin the experiment.
With his back toward them, the performer instructs the five seated assistants to open their envelopes and read what is written inside. Telling them to make sure that no one else sees what city they possess, he asks them all to stand up and concentrate upon their city.
Once again confirming the target city that the final assistant has chosen to focus upon, the performer takes her by the hand and he begins to walk back and forth across the front of the stage. One by one, he names the four cities that need to be eliminated, and while doing so, he amazingly has the people holding those envelopes sit down one at a time–until only one person is left standing. That remaining person indeed has the target city that was freely selected–thus proving that the performer was able to not only find the target city, but also to read the thoughts of each one of the assistants, thus locating all five of the cities along the wayl
