Ne Plus Ultra
by Harvey Berg
What if your volunteer just opened up to any page of a freely selected classic book well known to all and started reading? And then, with NO QUESTIONS, NO FALSE STARTS, and NO FISHING you started sensing and describing in detail the scene they are reading?
What if this required less than 15 minutes of "memory work" instead of the hour or more for Final Exam?
Ne Plus Ultra comes with three books familiar to all:
- Pride And Prejudice by Jane Austen
- Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert
- The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton
These books, like the ones in Final Exam, are absolutely bullet-proof and can be read through and inspected by your audience members with nothing for them to discover.
Ne Plus Ultra works 100% of the time.
Ne Plus Ultra can be learned in 15 minutes.
Ne Plus Ultra is the result of five year of observation of spectators in Final Exam and five years of feedback from performers like you.
Ne Plus Ultra is the result of an "AHA" moment Harvey experienced when challenged to eliminate the one "weakness" in Final Exam mentioned above.
