An experience of elegant, engaging mentalism, designed to turn your corporate event into a shared moment that leaves a real, lasting memory.
A mentalism show can become the turning point of the event: it captures attention, breaks down distances and creates a shared experience among the participants.
As a mentalist for corporate events, my goal is not only to entertain, but to turn astonishment into a communication tool, able to involve the audience and make the company’s messages memorable.
Whether you are organising a convention or a meeting that risks fading after lunch, a corporate or gala dinner, a congress, a sales kick-off, a team building or the year-end company party, the show shapes itself around that occasion and that audience. The setting changes, the result stays: your guests leave saying it was the right evening.
Every event allows one of two shapes, and the right one depends on the venue rather than on my preference.
A stage mentalism show gives the whole room the same moment at the same instant. It is what I recommend whenever there is a focal point and a slot in the programme, because the reaction becomes collective: people turn to the person beside them, and the evening acquires a moment everyone can name afterwards.
Close-up mentalism is the answer when the room has no natural centre, when guests are spread across several spaces, or when the schedule leaves no room to stop everything. I move between small groups instead, and in the right venue it lands better than a stage would.
If you are still deciding what shape the evening should take, the full range is on the mentalism shows page. Otherwise, tell me how the room is laid out and I will tell you which of the two fits.
Mentalism has a rare quality: it engages everyone, at the same moment.
It isn’t a show to watch passively. People take part, react, look at one another in astonishment. A different kind of energy is created, hard to achieve with other forms of entertainment.
Four concrete advantages for your event.
A memory tied to your brand. Your guests will keep talking about the experience even after the evening, associating those emotions with your company.
A more authoritative image. An elegant show increases the perceived value of the event and strengthens the reputation of whoever organised it. The first to look good is you.
Relationships that form naturally. Shared astonishment breaks the ice, sparks conversation and creates genuine connections between colleagues, clients and partners.
No out-of-place moment. Every intervention is discreet, never intrusive and tuned to the audience, and it adds to the setting and the people without drawing attention away from the event.
For Geico I staged "Beyond Our Limits", built on a simple, powerful idea: many of the limits that stop us exist only in our minds. Your guests laugh, are amazed, take part, and also take home a message that stays.
This is where a corporate mentalism show becomes a tool and not just an act: when it helps, I can weave the effects around the theme of your convention, a product or the values you want to convey, without ever turning the evening into a lecture.
Handing your entertainment to someone is a reputational risk. Here’s why you can rest easy:
Awards, training and over twenty years of stage work: the full background is in Alessio Rastrelli’s biography.
During a corporate event with a mentalist, people don’t just watch: they become an active part of what happens.
Thoughts that are revealed, decisions that seem predicted in advance, invisible connections between people who were strangers just a few minutes earlier.
Those who have already lived this experience describe it like this:
Extremely professional, able to focus the attention of a mixed audience. His elegant, delicate style captivates. Perfect for shows within corporate conventions, and open to dialogue: it's easy and pleasant to organise the show together, integrating the company's needs into the show. Recommended.
Only positive comments on the evening and on the professionalism with which Alessio ensured the success of our event, despite a small hitch caused by the restaurant. The show was appreciated by all the participants: excellent work.
Dear Alessio, thank you again for our company convention. You were professional, easy to work with and, above all, with your wit you kept 80 salespeople engaged: believe me, it was no easy task. The show was a real success, and the team still asks me today whether I know how you managed those miracles on stage. Thank you again.
In Florence, at Palazzo Borghese, I accompanied Tempur for a week, involving around 400 people in total.
Evening after evening, the relationship with the company and its management grew, turning mentalism into a tool able to convey corporate and motivational content in theatrical form.
The experience was so well received that it opened a conversation about future training programmes dedicated to the sales force.
Which corporate events is the show suitable for?
For conventions, meetings and congresses, corporate and gala dinners, sales kick-offs, team building and company parties. The same show adapts to any format, from a meeting of twenty people to an audience of several hundred.
How long does the show last?
On stage it lasts about 45 minutes. It can also be split into ten or fifteen minute segments, spread across the event or between the courses of a dinner.
How much does a mentalist for a corporate event cost?
The cost of a mentalist is never fixed: it depends on the format, the length, the venue and the number of guests. That’s why I don’t work from a price list, and the fee reflects a bespoke, premium service. Tell me about your event in the form and receive a dedicated proposal.
How is it different from a magician or a illusionist?
Magic amazes the eye, mentalism works on the mind. No cards or doves: anticipated thoughts, predicted choices and impossible coincidences, with the room involved first-hand. It’s entertainment designed for an adult, professional audience.
Can the show be tied to the company’s content or values?
Yes, and it’s the part I like most. I can build an effect around a product to launch, a milestone or a value to reinforce, so the message reaches your guests through astonishment rather than a slide.
Do you need a stage or technical equipment?
For larger events an audio service is required, and the technical rider is available on request. For a more intimate setting, a room and a microphone are enough.
Will my guests be embarrassed?
No. No one, executives included, is ever put in difficulty: the involvement is always elegant and respectful, and it values people rather than exposing them.
How far in advance should I book?
The sooner the better. The most requested dates, especially in December, sell out months in advance.
If you are organising a corporate event and want to add a moment that leaves a mark, you can request information on availability and on how the show works.
