Telepathy, telekinesis and humour: Stephan Therien is an expert in the art of eliciting the paranormal. In a spare environment that leaves no room for cheating, Therien engages his audience far beyond what the mind is ready to accept. He presents an amazing show where all can become mesmerized.
Directed by Gilles Cormier (who has also worked with comedians Peter MacLeod and Michel Barrette and the Just for Laughs Festival), the “Beyond the Unreal” show is a true crowd-pleaser. Stephan Therien gains enthusiastic praise wherever he appears. TV hosts Claire Lamarche, Jean-Pierre Coalier, Charles Lafortune and Marcel Béliveau were all mystified by Therien’s baffling talents. “Beyond the Unreal,” appearing in both the corporate market and at special events, abounds in surprising numbers where audiences find themselves enthralled.
If Houdini was the master of escape and David Copperfield the master of illusion, Stephan Therien is the master of the paranormal. The days of cliché illusions are over! Sawing a woman in two and pulling rabbits from top hats are now things of the past!
The art of astonishment has been refined: it has taken a step towards the impossible. And in this unsettled universe, the impossible has a name: STEPHAN THERIEN.
