One of Scotland's top comedy stage hypnotists, Richard will make you and your friends the stars of the show for the night and have your party goers in tears of laughter.
Our hypnotist party package is ideal for a wide range of parties or events such as adult birthday parties, retirement nights, work nights out, fundraisers or just an excuse for a great night with some laughs along the way.
Our Comedy Hypnotist Show is a hilarious, light-hearted, good clean family show which has the onstage volunteers playing musical instruments, riding horses, looking after pets and much, much more!
Our Comedy Hypnotist Show is not vulgar or distasteful in any way and strictly abides by the 1952 Hypnotism Act and 1996 Government Review.
Our Comedy Hypnotist will usually give a 60-90 minute performance for hypnosis alone, or as part of a customised package which will provide a singer and/or disco for the rest of the nights entertainment. Please do not hesitate to discuss these options when booking your show.
All volunteers MUST 18 years of age or over BY LAW. Volunteers must be in good physical and mental health and must not have any history of the following:
If the volunteers have admitted to any of the above conditions, they will be asked not to take part in the show.
Hypnosis shows do not require a licence if bookings are by invitation only for example: Birthday Parties, Private Members Clubs, Holiday Parks, Private Functions and Special Occasions. However if the perfromance is a public show an application to the local council may have to made. This condition varies depending on the individual council regulations. For example West Dunbartonshire Council permits Public Hypnosis Shows without prior authorisation so long as they do not take place inside of a council building including theatres. Private shows in all regions do not require permission or aaplication of a licence.
PLEASE NOTE - IT IS THE RESPONSIBILTY OF THE CLIENT TO ENSURE THEY VERIFY THEIR LOCAL COUNCIL'S POSITION ON STAGE HYNOSIS BEFORE MAKING A BOOKING/ADVERTISING A PUBLIC SHOW. AN APPLICATION MAY HAVE TO BE MADE TO THE COUNCIL LICENCING BOARD BEFORE A PUBLIC SHOW CAN GO AHEAD.
Hypnosis is a psychological state which superficially resembles sleep. Using relaxation techniques a hypnotist can help the indvidual to achieve trance state. Trance state is an altered state of conciousness in which suggestions can be passed directly to the subconcious mind and carried out without conflict or question.
Hypnosis can only be induced so long as permission has been granted by the volunteer and they are willing to be hypnotised. No one can be hypnotised against their will and volunteers cannot be made to say or carry out anything which is aginst their own morals or values.
Hypnosis in itself is perfectly harmless and is simply just an altered state of conciousness. However it is what a hypnotist asks their "subject" to do whilst in a state of trance that determines the safety of volunteers on stage. This has caused some bad press in recent years but as long as the suggestions do not involve daring feits, jumping from heights or distastful acts hypnosis shows are perfectly safe, clean and above all else good fun.
We here at Rainbow Entertainment pride ourselves in the quality of the entertainment we provide and above all the safety and well being of our customers and their family/friends. We guarantee that our Comedy Hypnotist Show will be safe, clean and good fun for all the family.
