I'd love to do the gig! I have acting experience and, although I've yet to
play a psychic, I have watched real psychics at work. I know how they read
people by observing their physical appearance and mannerisms. I know how they
stay in character, and I know I can do it too. I have the confidence and the
chutzpah!
I respect my audience and will be very careful about what I suggest to them in
case it influences decisions they make. If absolutely necessary, like any
honest psychic, I will break character.

Hi Joel,
Do you have any references, link, pic, resume that I can look at?
Do you have your own costume and table setup?
We really want the reader to be legit if not at least look legit.

Hi, Mark.
For these kinds of performances, I wear the average garb of modern Chinese
peasants -- loose-fitting blouse and pants, kind of like what you might see on
some of the older folks in Chinatown. It's more believable this way. I find
that it's best to be subtle. With this subtlety I'll be transformed into a
completely legit reader. Rather than a obviously costumed fraud, I'll be a
real-deal, no-kidding, genuine psychic.
Attached is a picture of me playing an Oriental Aristocrat. I'm in the left
panel of the picture. The panel on the right shows Paul Reubens playing a
German Aristocrat.
Cheers!
--Joel
