Phill has also consulted for numerous professional performers, including writing and development credits on TV show Impossible?, as well as on-set consulting in the UK, Belgium and Ukraine. In addition to all this, Phill has also performed professionally in a wide variety of settings including sell-out public shows, to rave reviews.
“Phill Smith thinks differently. It must be the creativity from his top-notch graphic designer brain, leaking in to his mentalism brain that does it. Phill’s ideas are smart, direct and practical, what more can any of us Mentalism junkies want?” – Ken Dyne
“When an engineer contemplates a problem, he seeks the most simple, yet robust solution available. Phill Smith’s mentalism is a symphony of solutions. Elegant and strong, but forthright enough to be hugely compelling. His Quinta force is just one of many examples of his brilliance.” – Atlas Brookings
“There are not many who inspire me in mentalism. For me, Phill Smith delivers inspiration by the truck load.” – Paul Brook
“I first learnt of Phill’s work with his book Mitox, which was a fabulous book full of practical ideas I knew I could implement into my own performances. Since then we have become good friends and he never ceases to amaze me with his brilliant thinking and creative ideas!” – Looch
