The Mentalist

FAST FORWARD TO TODAY…

Steve has been honing his craft as a Mentalist for well over a decade. This required a unique, yet parallel set of skills which took many years to develop.

As well as spending years in psychological development, Steve is also an incredible deception expert and found that the two skills go together very nicely.
Often described as "A living polygraph machine" he was quick to adapt his natural skill into an interesting way to make a living.

Over the years Steve has topped up his natural ability by studying macro/micro expressions, body language, posture analysis & voice temperature. All things that have helped greatly with his successes.

“You think a picture is worth a thousand words?…
a face is worth more.”
— Steve Dela

Steve will know what you're about to think before you think it. He will know whether you're lying or telling the truth. He can force your perception to make you see things that aren't really there. But most importantly, he does all of this in a fun and enchanting way!

The Art

What exactly is a Mentalist?

Often a Mentalist will describe themselves as a Mind Reader.

That's a fair description and certainly the closest way of describing how Mentalism feels.

The techniques Steve uses combine his deception training, magic background and his various studies in psychology.

You won't have witnessed anything like this before, as much of what Steve performs is his own invention!

“When you know how someone is going to react…
it becomes possible to predict the immediate future.”
— Steve Dela

Think of a Mentalist as a Mind Magician. You will be thoroughly entertained and yet have no idea how it happened.

A highly sophisticated form of entertainment which seems impossible, yet, is unique, memorable and REALLY, REALLY FUN!

"Stunning! Steve made our day complete. We'll be hiring him again."

Derek Proctor HSBC Bank plc.

"Steve Dela will have your guests laughing and gasping in amazement. Steve is a born entertainer who will leave you and your guests wanting more."

Paige & Liam Wedding

“Hi Dave, Steve was fabulous. Our guests thought he was brilliant and our WhatsApp pinged all day on Sunday with messages saying how great his entertainment was. His humour was spot on and he had our guests in stitches. We had a variety of guests attend our party - some who knew each other and some who didn’t - and he was the talking point that brought it all together. It was perfect. Thank you so much"

Sarah & Matt Anniversary Party

“James and I just wanted to send a quick email to thank Steve for the wonderful close up magic that he did at our wedding on 18th September. He was an absolute star and our guests were amazed. We could here all the gasps and applause the whole time we were having our photographs taken! It was also especially kind of him to take time at the end of the afternoon to perform some magic just for James and I.”

Steve has performed all over the world

'London - Paris - New York'… literally!

I may not read your mind…
but I can tell you what you're thinking.
— Steve Dela
  • Steve knows who is lying and who is telling the truth in an amazing display of deception reading.
  • He will know the words you choose from a random book.
  • He will predict ahead of the show exactly what actions audience members are about to make.

As cliche as it sounds, this really has to be seen to be believed and words simply can't represent the impossible nature of what Steve does.

Everything is presented in a fun and exciting way. There is plenty of humour and audience participation… NO ONE is EVER made to feel bad or silly!

Steve respects his audience from start to finish and everyone that takes part will be pleased that they did.
