Video download

A Kenton Classic come to life in living color at last!

Filmed live in several locations...

"Wow!!!! Just Wow...

I used this effect in a one man show here in a local theatre it and works wonderfully!

Even magicians were fooled, and don't get how the participants can see and read the date on the coin!

FOR A LIMITED TIME...FREE WITH ANY PURCHASE OF $60 OR MORE ! - One Week Only!

Kenton's Original Time Machine effect was first revealed to performers in rare lectures and workshops. It became a staple (still is) of Kenton's performances. Time Machine finally made it's way into Wonder Words... but few performed it until NOW.

For the first time ever Kenton has allowed the filming of Time Machine in action.

What is "Kenton's Time Machine?"

Completely under the performer's spell, the spectator thinks of a time to travel to in a different country.

She holds tightly to a coin from the U.S. and a more modern time, and then goes into a trance...

When the spectator snaps out of her trance, she is shocked to find she is holding a coin from the place she traveled to in her mind ... and confirms the date on the coin is the exact year she imagined !

Finally, everything you need to know about this Kenton Klassic at last.

But that's not all.

Kenton also included his devious ways of apparently making his spectator forget their own name - sometimes twice in a row! Yes, you CAN do it. You'll see for yourself once you learn Kenton's sneaky secrets.

PLUS

Kenton shows additional "touches" he uses when he performs his Time Machine effect. This includes invisible touches on the arm and head - in real time. No delays, no stalling. This is as direct as can be. For those wondering how it would look and play in real life - see for yourself at last! These secrets are essentials in all of Kenton's trance illusion and "Kentonism" performances. Now they can be yours as well.

You get the name forgetting sequence, Kenton's original hypnosis coin illusion as designed for television, Kenton's "Touched in the Head" and "Heightened Arm Sensations" - with no gimmicks whatsoever, and Kenton's Time Machine with touches not even explained in Wonder Words... fully revealed for the first time on this DVD.

You will see Time Machine performed live, with additional details and bonus work explained too. It's everything you could want and more so you can properly learn this effect and its many related sub-effects, all on one DVD. See and learn it live - as if you were right there yourself.

Kenton's Time Machine and Touches - available at last.

(Priced to stay out of the hands of the common curiosity seeker.)

Official Review from My Lovely Assistant

Rating: Four Stars

Reviewed by Jeff McBride

I like Kenton. He's a fun performer, with many interesting ideas. I have seen THE TIME MACHINE in a few different formats over the years. I have performed it on occasion, although it is not one of my regular pieces in my repertoire, yet, after seeing Kenton's DVD, I want to re-visit Time Machine, and give it another chance. I really enjoy the story-telling and trance induction dimensions of this performance piece.

Here's what happens:

The mentalist invites an audience member to join him on a journey of imagination back in time. We are going to meet the writer of the book The Time Machine, HG Wells. The participant is asked to write down the year in the 1800s that they would like to visit. This is sealed in an envelope, for later verification if necessary. Next, before our imaginary journey, the participant is handed an American half dollar. The mentalist then uses guided imagery to take the participant and the audience back in time to a noisy tavern in the 1800s and to take a seat at the bar next to the bearded writer HG Wells. The participant is instructed to exchange their American half dollar for one of HG Wells' English pennies. The participant then travels back from their brief encounter to the present time, and upon opening their hand, the half dollar which they had been holding the entire time, has changed to an English penny. The mentalist then picks up the English penny and tells the date he sees on the coin. It is the same date thought of and written down by the participant!

This effect will play for a small group, and even a larger audience if you, the performer develop good story-telling and NLP skills to enhance the audience's visualization during the journey.

Kenton goes step by step through every detail. Nothing is left out. In fact, more is put in!

When I first read the title of the DVD, and read the back of the box, it said Time Machine and Touches. I thought this meant that Kenton was teaching a few of his touches on Time Machine, but I was wrong. Instead, I found that Kenton teaches a second, bonus routine, based on Banachek's Invisible Touches.

Touches is a complete routine in itself, and Kenton gives you many new moves that you can add to your existing routine... Or, you can just use the moves and tips Kenton gives you to craft your own impromptu psychic sensation presentation.

I would have given this five stars, but the laugh track and applause track is a bit too fake, and I found the gold-lamee backdrop a bit overpowering for the type of material being covered. All of this said, this is a fine routine, that is easy to do, with a bit of practice and dedication.

Independent Review From About.com

Instead of a prediction in the vein of an Al Koran Medallion-style effect, Kenton Knepper has turned a prediction into a theme of time travel in the spirit of H.G. Wells. It is truly inspired and brilliant work.

Make a Date

A spectator is selected and asked to think of a time and country to travel to. The spectator is given a U.S. coin to hold. After some byplay, the spectator finds that she is holding a foreign coin from the place she traveled to in her mind and confirms that the date on the coin is the year she thought of.

The main effect is striking and ingenious. What I like is that instead of a standard prediction, Knepper has turned the effect into one of time travel and bringing back evidence from the trip. The routine is not difficult to learn and perform and there are no complicated moves. You will need to purchase some props that should cost under $50.

Finishing "Touches"

In addition to "Time Machine," Knepper teaches some fine psychological points to augment it. He teaches how to make it appear that a spectator is in a hypnotic trance and can't momentarily recall her name.

There are also a couple of "psychic touch" effects where you don't touch the spectator but with her eyes closed, she can sense your physical touch. These are easy to learn and perform and require no additional props or gimmicks.

About Time

With "Time Machine and Touches," Kenton Knepper tips a powerful routine with an intriguing theme and teaches some excellent psychic finesses. This is entertaining mentalism.
