Professional Stage Hypnotist (UK) - Grant Saunders

THE

ONLY SHOW

WHERE YOU ARE THE STAR

Comedy hypnosis shows for corporate events, theatres and live audiences – modern, safe and genuinely funny.

FOR OVER TWO DECADES

What Is Stage Hypnosis?

Stage hypnosis is a live comedy entertainment show where volunteers from the audience take part in imaginative, playful routines under guided suggestion. It’s not about mind control or making people do anything against their will, it’s about

participation, imagination, and having a great time.

In a professional stage hypnosis show, people who want to take part are guided into a focused, relaxed state where their imagination responds more vividly. The result is fast-paced, interactive comedy that’s fun for the volunteers and the audience watching.

Nothing is forced. No one is embarrassed. And everyone leaves the stage feeling good.

What Stage Hypnosis Is (and What It Isn’t)

  • ✔ A comedy entertainment experience driven by imagination and suggestion

  • ✔ Fully voluntary — only willing participants take part

  • ✔ Designed to be safe, ethical, and audience-appropriate

  • ✖ It’s not mind control

  • ✖ It’s not fake acting

  • ✖ And it’s definitely not about humiliating people

A professional stage hypnotist creates the conditions where people feel comfortable, relaxed, and happy to play along — that’s where the magic (and the laughter) comes from.

Why Audiences Love It

Audiences love stage hypnosis because it’s live, unpredictable, and genuinely human.

No two shows are ever the same. The comedy comes from real reactions, shared moments, and the joy of watching people surprise themselves. It’s inclusive, good-natured, and works just as well in a corporate awards room as it does in a packed theatre.

For event organisers, it’s engaging entertainment that:

  • Gets the whole room involved (even those not on stage)

  • Breaks down barriers and creates shared laughter

  • Leaves people talking about the event long after it ends

That combination,  laughter, connection, and a feel-good atmosphere,  is exactly why stage hypnosis has remained one of the most popular forms of live entertainment for decades.

What Happens in a Stage Hypnosis Show?

Every stage hypnosis show follows a clear, professional structure designed to keep things safe, fun, and entertaining for everyone involved. While no two shows are ever exactly the same, the journey is always familiar and reassuring.

Warm-Up and Safety First

The show begins with a relaxed, upbeat introduction where expectations are set. The audience learns what hypnosis really is, what will (and won’t) happen, and how volunteers are looked after throughout the performance.

This creates a comfortable atmosphere and ensures everyone understands that participation is voluntary, safe, and light-hearted from the very start.

Volunteers and Participation

Volunteers are invited to take part — always willingly, and always at their own pace. Simple, fun audience exercises help identify those who are most responsive and keen to join in.

No one is singled out or pressured. People only come on stage if they genuinely want to take part.

Comedy Routines and Interaction

Once the show is underway, the comedy comes from imagination, suggestion, and shared moments. The routines are playful, fast-moving, and tailored to the audience in the room.

This is where the laughter builds — not through embarrassment, but through genuine reactions and unexpected moments that feel spontaneous and human. The audience remains fully engaged, whether they’re watching from their seats or cheering on the volunteers.

A Positive, Feel-Good Finish

Every show ends on a high. Volunteers are fully re-oriented, feeling relaxed, confident, and positive. There’s no confusion, no lingering effects — just a sense of achievement and a lot of laughter shared.

For event organisers, this means entertainment that leaves people in a great mood, talking about the experience long after the event has finished.

Stage hypnosis works best when it’s structured, respectful, and professionally delivered — and that’s exactly what ensures every audience enjoys a show that’s memorable for all the right reasons.

Corporate Entertainment That Actually Works

Corporate entertainment needs to do more than fill time — it needs to engage the room, suit the audience, and reflect the tone of the event. A well-delivered stage hypnosis show does exactly that.

From conferences and awards nights to after-dinner entertainment and team events, hypnosis works because it’s inclusive, adaptable, and genuinely memorable. The humour is clean, the pace is right for a professional setting, and the show is shaped to match the people in the room — not forced into a one-size-fits-all format.

For event planners, this means entertainment that:

  • Works for mixed audiences

  • Keeps the energy up without being disruptive

  • Encourages shared laughter and connection

  • Fits comfortably within a professional event schedule

Whether it’s a formal corporate dinner or a more relaxed team celebration, the focus is always on delivering entertainment that lands well, feels appropriate, and leaves a positive impression long after the event has finished.

That balance — experience, recognition, and responsibility — is what turns a good event into a memorable one.

Safe, Ethical & Professional Stage Hypnosis

Great entertainment should never come at the expense of people’s comfort or wellbeing. Professional stage hypnosis is built on trust, consent, and care — and that’s something that’s taken seriously at every performance.

From the very start of the show, clear expectations are set. Volunteers always take part willingly, understand what’s involved, and are treated with respect throughout. The aim is laughter and enjoyment, never embarrassment or discomfort.

Every performance follows clear professional principles:

  • Participation is always voluntary

  • Volunteers are treated with dignity and respect

  • No humiliation, coercion, or unsafe suggestions

  • Shows are adapted to suit the audience and setting

  • Clear re-orientation and a positive finish for everyone on stage

This approach ensures that the experience is enjoyable not just for the audience watching, but for the people taking part as well.

For event organisers, this means complete peace of mind. The show is designed to be:

  • Suitable for corporate and mixed audiences

  • Aligned with professional standards

  • Confidently delivered with audience wellbeing in mind

When hypnosis is presented responsibly, it creates a relaxed, upbeat atmosphere where people feel safe to laugh, join in, and enjoy the moment — which is exactly what great live entertainment should do.
