With the passing of Tony Randall the term 'raconteur' never gets used anymore, but it must surely apply to Lance Norris. A long time veteran of Boston radio (WZLX, WBCN, WAAF, WTKK, MIKE-FM), Norris has been seen in Academy Award winning films Mystic River and Glory, as well as lighter fare like With Honors and The Mouse. Norris has also written for TV on the Emmy nominated Politically Incorrect and Saturday Night Live as well as the quickly cancelled Mike O'Malley Show.
Lance Norris is an entertainer who is considered the father of Rock & Roll Mentalism. His unique blend of ability, talent and humor create a challenging, stimulating and much in demand experience for all. The range of Norris’ abilities includes ESP, Mind Reading, Psychokinesis, and Suggestion.
Norris, a former card carrying member of the liberal media elite, often conducts experiments in subliminal persuasion as it relates to the movies or Rock & Roll music. Of course the term ‘subliminal’ is technically archaic, hopelessly bound to the concept of a well-defined sensory threshold which was made obsolete by the introduction of signal detection theory into psychology.
Norris, who has made his archaic presences felt subliminally in theatres across North America, the Caribbean and China, often demonstrate how this influence represents a social threat and how we are all already greatly, even unfairly, being influenced by carefully crafted psychologically sophisticated persuasion tactics. Fun for the whole family.
His humor has been published in magazines as far a field as National Lampoon, Entertainment Weekly, People, Hustler and Mad. The author of several books and screenplays, as well as acting, directing and writing for the stage; it's no wonder he had to recently close his comedy club 'The Bitter Man'.
