After a sell-out 2025 Edinburgh Fringe run, The Mind Spy returns with an immersive, theatrical, magic and mind-reading experience inspired by real Cold War psychic experiments. Could you be a psychic spy? Expect impossible predictions, thought transmission and unexpected connections as the audience becomes part of the test. Stylish, interactive and quietly provocative, this is psychological theatre where nothing is quite as it seems. Winner of Best Original Show, Liverpool Fringe 2025. 'Mind blowing' ***** (TheatreAndArtReviews.com). 'Astounding' ***** (FringeReview.ca).
