HOME AIRPORT: Cape Town, South Africa
PERFORMANCE: 2 x 45 mins sets
Larry Soffer is one of the world’s premier Mentalists, captivating audiences across the globe with mind-blowing feats of mentalism, psychological illusion, and thought-provoking entertainment.
Larry began performing at corporate and private events. Such were his talents that world famous Las Vegas Magicians, Siegfried and Roy awarded him the SARMOTI (Siegfried and Roy Masters of the Impossible) Grant – a bursary for his final year of study at the College of Magic.
After graduation, Larry took interest in Mentalism – acts of mind-reading, metal bending and telekinesis – studying it in his spare time. Soon, he began showcasing his skills on television and radio – making spoons and forks bend across these platforms effecting people in their homes, including fixing broken watches, making light bulbs burst, making TV’s switch on.
In 2006, Larry was invited to the world-renowned Magic Castle in Hollywood, the members of which are only the most prestigious magicians in the world. He went on to become the youngest South African to ever perform there and the only to ever be awarded membership at that time.
Larry is an extremely popular live show and corporate event performer, inspiring his audience to ‘Believe To See’ instead of ‘Seeing to Believe.’ In so doing, he truly opens their minds to new possibilities by believing in the impossible and thereby creating their own dreams. With a career spanning over two decades and performances in more than 30 countries, Larry delivers a refined, high-impact show that leaves audiences questioning the limits of the human mind.
His performance is a sophisticated blend of mind reading, impossible predictions, dangerous stunts, telekinesis, and a classic Second Sight act — all presented with charisma, humor, and a deep understanding of human psychology. Audience members become part of the experience, as Larry seemingly plucks thoughts from their minds, predicts their choices, and manipulates objects without physical contact.
What sets Larry apart is not just what he does, but how he makes people feel. His show is more than just entertainment — it’s a shared journey into the mysteries of perception, connection, and belief. Clean, clever, and unforgettable
Larry Soffer will have your audience on the edge of their seats — questioning what’s real, and what’s truly possible.
