Biography

He can read your mind. Or can he?
Piet Kusters, known from Belgian’s Got Talent and his own VRT1 television show Wonder Boven Wonder, is a mentalist, entertainer and storyteller. Through a unique blend of mentalism, psychology, storytelling, humor and mindf*cks, he creates wonder, energy and connection – leaving audiences with one guaranteed question: “How did he do that?!”

What happens when someone seems to know exactly what you are thinking? When a prediction comes true that should have been impossible to predict? Or when you discover just how easily your choices and beliefs can be influenced? That’s where the story begins.

Piet Kusters uses mentalism not only to amaze people, but also to make a message tangible, memorable and meaningful. Through his stories and performances, he explores the fascinating – and highly influenceable – nature of the human mind. This allows him to connect with themes that matter to organizations and teams and bring them to life in a way audiences do not simply hear, but actually experience.

His performances are interactive, energetic and personal. The audience doesn’t simply watch the show – they become part of the story. One moment you are sitting on the edge of your seat; the next, you may find yourself at the center of the action.

Piet works primarily at B2B events, conferences and corporate events, for clients in Belgium, the Netherlands and internationally. His performances are available in Dutch and English.

The Human Mind, Assumptions & Behavior
More Than Entertainment

Piet Kusters wants to do more than simply amaze his audience. His acts, stories and mindf*cks are not an end in themselves, but a way to make people experience, reflect and connect with one another.

How well do we really understand our own minds? How easily can our thoughts and decisions be influenced? Can we always trust what we see, hear and feel?

Piet plays with these questions and holds up a surprising mirror to his audience. He shows just how easily our minds can fool us – and how fascinating it becomes when we are willing to question our own assumptions.

Wonder Brings People Closer Together
Connection is at the heart of Piet’s interactive mentalism performances.

There are no passive spectators simply watching from the sidelines. Instead, audiences experience, laugh and get surprised together. Minds are read, predictions come true and mindf*cks make people question what they thought they knew.

That shared sense of wonder creates something special: People start talking to each other.

Piet’s performances therefore deliver more than entertainment. They create shared experiences, new perspectives and conversations that continue long after the show is over.

From Mindf*ck to Insight
Piet uses mentalism to bring important themes to life in unexpected ways. Depending on the event, he can connect his performance to topics such as:

  • Mindset & Behavior – Why do we think and act the way we do?

  • Connection & Collaboration – How well do we really see and listen to one another?

  • Communication – What does our behavior reveal, and how do we influence each other?

  • Influence & Persuasion – How easily can we be influenced?

  • Choices & Decision-Making – How free are our choices, really?

  • Trust – What do we trust when we cannot explain what is happening?

  • Seeing Things Differently – What if our first impression or assumption is wrong?

  • Change & Adaptability – How does the human mind respond to the unexpected?

  • Storytelling & Experience – How do you make a message not just heard, but truly experienced?

The result is a performance in which wonder leads to awareness.

A Message That Stays With You
Piet tailors his performance to the purpose, audience and context of the event. He can use a mindf*ck to reinforce a particular theme, open a conference with a powerful short act, or create a central performance that becomes a surprising thread throughout the event.

He doesn’t just leave people thinking: “How did he do that?”

He also leaves them asking: “What does this say about the way I see, think and make decisions?”

That is what makes Piet Kusters more than a mentalist or entertainer. He is a storyteller who creates wonder, connection and new perspectives.

An Experience That Keeps People Talking
Piet’s performance doesn’t end when the applause begins. The impossible moments, mindf*cks and insights often become the subject of conversation afterwards.

Experience together. Be amazed together. Think differently together.
That is the power of Piet Kusters.

From Conference Opening to Spectacular Finale
Piet Kusters is highly flexible and can tailor his contribution to the program, audience and objectives of your event.

For example, he can open a conference with a short 10–15-minute act, return later with an interactive central show, and then entertain guests up close with close-up mentalism during the reception.

CENTRAL SHOW
An interactive performance bringing together mentalism, storytelling and entertainment.
Mind reading, predictions, influence and psychological techniques are woven into a compelling story that continually challenges the audience’s perception of what is possible.
Surprising. Interactive. Personal. And above all: unforgettable.

AN UP-CLOSE MENTALISM EXPERIENCE

During a reception, dinner or networking event, Piet brings the mentalism directly to the audience.
Guests become part of the performance in small groups. Minds are read, predictions come true and personal choices suddenly take on an unexpected meaning.
A powerful way to create energy, interaction and connection.

An Experience That Stays With You
Piet Kusters brings more than entertainment. He brings wonder with a story.
Whether it is a conference, corporate event, client event, employee gathering, gala or international event, Piet ensures that people don’t simply watch and listen – they experience what is happening.

And perhaps that is the most powerful effect of mentalism:
You don’t just leave wondering, “How did he do that?”
You also leave asking, “What does this say about me?”
