the audience laughing, applauding and enthusiastically volunteering
to join in a fast paced, comedy hypnotic show that will be
the topic of conversation for many weeks after the event.

range of hilarious hypnotic shows, he also offers seminars and workshops

Hypnosis is a unique form
of interactive variety entertainment for conferences, social functions

clubs. That's because audience participation takes on a whole new
meaning when volunteers are brought up on stage and quickly placed in an
hypnotic trance. From this point forward, the laughter is non-stop
because Mike Master's subjects become the stars of the show!
They turn into their
favourite celebrities, meet visitors from different worlds, forget their
names, lose part of their bodies, travel back to their childhood, become
firemen and even turn invisible - all taking place in one of the most
captivating and hilarious hypnotic presentations around!
With no two shows ever the
same your audience will be left begging for more of this outrageous
non-stop comedy show.

" I run
three national conferences per year and always use the best NZ
performers I can find. Not one has ever come close to the unique
experience that you gave us! Nothing short of fantastic, everyone
enjoyed it and few had seen anything like your performance before. And of course you used our own staff so we all became stars for the
night. My only worry now is, that it may be impossible for me to do
a better conference next time."

What is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is an altered
state of consciousness induced by a series of psychological techniques.
Hypnosis is an ancient art dating back to the Egyptians, but made
commercially popular during the early days of music halls and vaudeville
throughout the UK, Europe and the USA.
Mike Masters uses his
knowledge and understanding of these hypnotic techniques to access his
volunteers' subconscious mind and magnify their imaginations, turning
mild mannered people into total extroverts - way outside their normal
comfort zones.
Mike is able to guide his
subjects through a variety of experiences, but it is up to the individual
to create and react to their own experience within the situation. This
is why you never hear about hypnotised people robbing banks or other
crimes - because hypnotised people will never do anything against their
morals or beliefs.
Is the Mike Masters
hypnotic show safe?
YES!. Hypnosis itself is
100% safe. There is no danger of going into hypnosis and never coming
out - hypnosis just doesn't work that way. There are no side effects
caused by someone going into hypnosis. Furthermore, Mike is an
experienced Stage Hypnotist and Clinical Hypnotherapist who always keeps
in mind the safety of his subjects.
At the beginning of the
show, Mike announces that as part of his volunteer criteria, he will
accept nobody as a subject who has a broken arm... broken leg...
sprained ankle... or any injury whatsoever. Neither will he accept
anyone who is pregnant, under a doctors care, or on any medication --
legal or illegal. Mike must restrict all participants under the age of
12 or over the age of 70 from appearing on stage.
How does Mike choose
his volunteers?
This show uses no stooges
or pre-arranged hypnotic subjects. Mike Masters will only use people who
are willing to submit themselves. Besides, bringing up volunteers 'on
the spot' allows the audience to see that nothing is 'set up' or
prearranged with volunteers.
What happens?
The volunteers on stage
are guided through a very carefully orchestrated set of entertaining and
non harmful fictional scenarios by the Hypnotist for the entertainment
of the audience. Using specially developed speed induction techniques,
he makes it look so easy - using total strangers with no pre-selection,
screening or prior considering - with just a snap of a finger. It really
is astonishing.
Because Mike's hypnotic
inductions are so powerful, it's not uncommon to find that two or more
audience members have succumbed to Mike's powers, and are snoring away
happily in their seats whilst the action is happening on the stage.
These people more often than not end up becoming some of the best stars
of the show.
Does Mike explain what
hypnosis is to the audience?
Absolutely. Everyone is
fascinated with hypnosis. They don't just want to watch it - they want
to understand "Why" and "How" hypnosis works. During the performance
Mike educates (without lecturing) his audience as he dispels the myths
and misconceptions that many people have about hypnosis.
How long does the
Hypnotic Show last?
Mike recommends that he be
provided with a minimum of 40 minutes to execute his act. The ideal time
span for a hypnosis show is between 60 and 90 minutes. However, in the
right environment, he is able to pull a performance out to 2 hours if
you prefer.
Please note: As this is an
audience participating 'show', the time varies, depending on the
volunteers etc.
Why is there a minimum
audience size requirement?
Initially, Mike Masters
like to have many volunteers to come up on stage at the start of the
show. Mike will encourage as many as 25 to 35 volunteers to come
forward, depending on the audience size. In order to have a sufficient
remaining audience size left to entertain, we have found that a
minimum audience size of 50 people works best - however Mike will
perform for smaller groups on request. The rule of thumb to remember is
- the more people the better the show will be.
What type of corporate
functions are appropriate for a Hypnosis show, and what type of
functions aren't?
Generally, a Hypnosis show
can be performed for any type of corporate event where the entire
audience is seated, either theatre style or in table rounds (for
luncheons, dinners, banquets, galas, etc.) It is imperative that Mike
Masters has the audiences' undivided attention.
The show should always
begin as soon as dessert and coffee have been served to guests and
before any company announcements, presentations, etc. (unless these
types of presentations are scheduled much earlier in the evening or in
between meal courses) , to ensure a fresh, receptive audience for the
show.
A cocktail reception or
social event where the guests are standing and mingling with each other
will not work, nor can Hypnosis be performed on a strolling basis for
corporate events.
Is Mike Master's
Hypnotic Show appropriate for my conservative group?
Mike Masters has performed
his comedy hypnotic show to over 1000 audiences and knows how to keep
the room captivated without use of offensive material. Therefore whether
performing at a comedy club, high school, university, or your corporate
banquet, everything is 100% squeaky clean.
There is nothing nasty,
vulgar, sexual, sexist, racist, or political in the act. From beginning
to end, your audience will keep laughing from good clean fun. You can be
sure that there won't be any uncomfortable moments for anyone.
