Mentalist Brian Ledbetter: Live and In Person!
On Tuesday, October 5th join us as we welcome Mentalist Brian Ledbetter at 7PM in the Derryberry Hall Auditorium. Mindreading? X-Ray Vision? Telekinesis? Second Sight? Brian Ledbetter is the man with WILD TALENTS… Imagine seeing inanimate objects seemingly come to life and move using only the power of the mind. Forks bend and spoons twist into a knot. Unexplainable coincidences occur. Brian charmingly reads the thoughts of strangers he’s never met.
