A featured performer at the legendary Magic Castle in Hollywood, Michael Gutenplan is a mentalist and third-generation psychic whose mind reading blends classic showmanship, sophisticated humour and astonishing feats that turn even the most skeptical guests into enchanted participants.
With over 25 years of experience, Michael has performed across 49 states and 23 countries — at corporate conferences and exclusive private clubs, on luxury cruise ships, in major theme parks and at high-profile events worldwide. His strolling work happens inches away, in the hands and minds of the guests themselves, while his stage show is interactive, fast-paced and full of laughter. It suits corporate meetings, conferences, cocktail parties, galas and fundraisers alike. Michael is a member of the Psychic Entertainers Association and the Academy of Magical Arts, and holds a degree from the Carnegie Mellon University School of Drama.
