A spectacular mind-altering performance from international stage hypnotist and mentalist Fraser Penman.

Prepare to be amazed as Fraser’s witty sense of humour and calming aura attracts volunteers to the stage to participate in an hour of magic in the form of hypnosis! Having learnt his craft practising on friends in local bars Fraser has no issues navigating a busy Saturday night crowd, gaining total control and attention from both volunteers and crowd.  

Fraser whittles his volunteers down to the ‘chosen ones’, while ensuring the crowd understand that the aim is not to humiliate his volunteers but showcase the power of hypnosis while looking after everyone on the stage with the upmost care.  

As the night unfolds, they participate in a variety of hilarious tasks from dancing competitions to animal rapping while even causing one of the volunteers to forget their name entirely. The crowd watches in amazement as each individual participates whole heartedly – even shocking themselves at times.  

Closing the show, Fraser tells us a little more about himself and his background. Being severely bullied left him with the drive to showcase his hypnotism in the most unique and empowering way.

A blinding performance from Fraser leaves everyone questioning the reality of what has just occurred on stage!
