ESCAPE TO REALITY
Students, like all of us, are beset by pressures that can tie them up in knots. They feel hounded by manipulative forces—advertising, media, even friends—that try to control their feelings, decisions, and actions. Bob Fellows understands. He applies the metaphor of escape artistry and episodes from his life and the life of Houdini to dramatize how students can release themselves from manipulation and peer pressure. He demonstrates that the mind is the key to the freedom they seek.
Bob is an entertainer who applies 30 years of experience to present a strong, practical message while keeping his audience on the edge of their seats. The show is spectacular, fast-paced and crackling with energy.
MIND OVER MANIPULATION
Fellows advocates “mind over manipulation” as an intellectual strategy in the battle against smoking, alcohol, other drug addictions, and all kinds of unhealthy choices. This presentation combines magic of the mind, laughter and intellect in a way your audiences find fascinating...and believable.
Using entertainment skills honed over twenty-five years, he involves his audience in discovering how they are being manipulated, how it affects their lives, and how they can gain control and make sure their decisions are their own.

YOU CAN'T TRICK ME!
Teaching kids about safety supports their well-being and empowers them with critical thinking skills they can use to make healthy choices throughout their lives. In this interactive, high energy school assembly, magician Bob Fellows shows kids how to resist being drawn into unsafe situations. The program is more than magic—it's a message kids remember. Bob approaches tough topics—abduction, abuse, peer pressure, drugs, and crime—with the appeal of magic and the psychology of how people get fooled. He opens his "bag of tricks" so that kids will be able to spot and resist lies and ploys that can get them into trouble.
In addition to teaching kids to think and use caution and good judgment, Bob presents "Five Tricks That Fool Kids:" • I Know You • Let's Play a Game • Magician's Choice • I'm In Charge Here • I Need Help. Students leave the presentation with a healthy "fight back" attitude, and tools to navigate safely through the world.
