Upper Grades
"Perception Plus"

Can Danny Orleans read minds?

That’s the question your students will be asking themselves after being a part of his show “Perception Plus.”

A student removes a quarter from his pocket. Danny Orleans, standing 50 feet away, tells him the date on it. A girl thinks about her cat. Danny Orleans describes the color, breed and even its name. A skeptical student picks a word out of a text book. Danny Orleans spells it, letter by letter, as though he were reading it through the student's eyes.

Sound impossible? That’s why this show is just perfect for the skeptical middle and high school student. It dramatizes the psychology of perception and leads your students to consider where imagination ends and reality begins.
