Entering Mind Magic with a healthy dose of skepticism, we didn’t expect to be truly astonished—but Joshua Seth proved us wrong in the most delightful way. Billed as an evening of intelligent wit and mind reading at the Imagine Museum (1901 Central Ave), the show delivered on every promise, leaving us and the rest of the audience both amused and utterly mystified.
From the moment the show began, the intimate setting created an engaging, almost collaborative atmosphere. Many attendees became active participants in Seth’s astonishing mind-reading routines. What unfolded wasn’t a display of traditional illusion or sleight of hand, but—as he aptly described it—a sleight of mind. And indeed, it was.

Vegas talent. St. Pete vibes. Pure mind magic
Seth, a seasoned mentalist who’s performed on stages across the globe, masterfully blended sharp comedic timing with a commanding presence. His performance struck the perfect balance—his talent could easily command a large Las Vegas stage (where he’s previously performed), yet it felt warm and personal, like a private show for his St. Petersburg neighbors. A recent transplant to the Burg, Seth now proudly calls it home.
Without spoiling the surprises, much of the show’s brilliance lies in its immersive nature. Rather than sitting back as passive observers, audience members are gently drawn into a world of kinesics and nonverbal cues—invited to engage in the art of “mind reading” themselves. This participation transforms the night into something far more than a performance. It becomes a shared exploration of intuition and perception.
No smoke. No mirrors. Just mind games.
What stood out most was the act’s transparency. The audience’s role wasn’t just to be amazed—it served as subtle proof that no trickery or hidden devices were at play. There were no wires, no smoke, no mirrors—just psychological magic delivered with precision, charm, and insight.
The show’s final act involved nearly the entire room and left jaws on the floor. Audible gasps and visible goosebumps swept the space. That moment alone could easily headline a major venue. Yet experiencing it in the intimate setting of St. Petersburg’s Imagine Museum made the night feel truly special—an unforgettable privilege for those lucky enough to attend.
An evening with Joshua Seth isn’t just a show. It’s an experience that makes you question the boundary between intuition, psychology, and something that feels eerily like magic.
