Mentalist to mystify at Washington event

-

WASHINGTON >> Mentalist Oz Pearlman, who dazzled the country as a finalist on “America’s Got Talent,” will make the audience wrestle with many questions when he performs on June 4 in Washington.

A “magician of the mind,” Oz, as he is known, plumbs the dichotomy between brain and body, challengin­g the audience’s grip on reality and its perception of the world. After his performanc­e, his audience often wonders if it can believe what it saw and if it is even possible.

A performer with the stare of an endurance athlete, Pearlman also creates and designs his routines. Like any card-carrying conjurer, he steadfastl­y declines to reveal the secrets that befuddle and bewitch his audiences. While he

started as a magician, he soon became spellbound with how the mind works and focused on mentalism.

The program, a special event in the “Conversati­ons on the Green,” series, starts at 3 p.m. on June 4 at The Gunnery’s Main Dining Hall, 22 Kirby Road, Washington. For those who would like a personal performanc­e, Pearlman will work his magic at a subsequent cocktail reception at The Mayflower Grace.

All proceeds from the event benefit area charities: Susan B. Anthony, which provides free crisis and support services for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault; New Milford Hospital, which serves thousands in the community; and other area charities.

Tickets, a portion of which are tax deductible, are available. Individual tickets are $45. The Family Plan offers four tickets for $150. The Group Plan provides 10 tickets for $300.

“Angels on the Green” tickets are $250 per person and include preferred seating and the opportunit­y to meet Pearlman at a special cocktail reception at The Mayflower Grace following the conversati­on.

Following the performanc­e and the “Angels” cocktail reception, a dinner will be held at The Mayflower Grace. Available exclusivel­y to guests, the dinner includes a three-course gourmet meal for $88.50 per person. Select wine, gratuity and taxes are included.
