The Mentalist

The Mentalist is a 75-minute show in the V Theater at Planet Hollywood Hotel that combines mentalism with psychological techniques and illusions. The performance involves reading thoughts and revealing personal information about audience members as they participate directly in the act.

The show was founded by Gerry McCambridge, who spent years performing on different stages and appeared on television programs including CSI and The Tonight Show. His success in television and live performances led to the creation of this permanent show in Las Vegas.

The show blends psychological principles with stage magic in a way that reflects Las Vegas's tradition of blending reality with spectacle. This mix appeals to audiences seeking entertainment that challenges their perception of what is real.

The theater is located at Planet Hollywood Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip and is easily accessible. Plan for about two hours to fully experience the show, including any wait time before and after the main performance.

A highlight of the show is a risky feat involving a nail gun performed while completely blindfolded. This segment demonstrates the mix of danger and skill that McCambridge focuses on throughout the performance.
