Princess Theatre 163 Spring Street, Melbourne, VIC - The Great Franquin - 1957
The Great Franquin - notes by Garnet H. Carroll.
*Born in Christchurch, New Zealand in 1914, hypnotist and showman Francis Patrick Joseph Quinn came to Australia in 1950, performing under the stage name The Great Franquin. In Sydney, his show played for several months, followed by more than a year at the Princess Theatre in Melbourne. He also toured in Hawaii, Canada, the United States and South Africa, with numerous return seasons in Australia and New Zealand.
As well as hypnotism, Franquin demonstrated feats of memory and an ability to conduct rapid calculations. In 1957, John Sands named a board game after him, called Franquin’s ESP.
