About the show
Step into an hour-plus of mind games, sharp comedy, and “how did he do that?” moments with Gerry McCambridge — The Mentalist. Using a blend of psychology, suggestion, memory stunts, and showmanship, Gerry pulls names, numbers, and secrets from audience members and makes bold predictions that land again and again. The show leans heavily on audience participation (sit up front if you want a shot at being called on), and it moves fast — no slow, talky bits. It’s the longest-running mentalism show in Las Vegas for a reason.
Highlights of the show
- Real audience participation — volunteers drive many of the biggest reveals.
- Fast, funny, and interactive — mentalism with punchlines.
- Las Vegas institution — a veteran headliner with TV credits and awards.

The Mentalist blew our minds! The predictions and mind-reading tricks were spot-on. Couldn’t figure out a single one.
Very entertaining and interactive. Some of the tricks went a little too long, but overall it was an amazing experience.
Great mix of comedy and mind tricks. Left us all wondering how he managed to read people so accurately!
Absolutely phenomenal! The level of audience participation made the show unforgettable.
Super engaging performer. A few jokes didn’t land, but the tricks themselves were top-notch.
One of the best shows I’ve seen in Vegas. Left me completely amazed and smiling the entire night.
