"SEE the show or BE the show!"
Presented by Isaac Lomman
The initial assumption made about a
hypnotist performance might be a group of planted audience members being
plucked onto the stage and proceeding to cluck like a chicken.
We can tell you that HYPNOSIS [Live] by
Isaac Lomman is as skilled in his profession as he is in converting the most skeptical
participants.
Returning to his seventh Adelaide Fringe
season, Lomman has been able to put together a show that ticks off every box
for a good performance. HYPNOSIS [Live] is entertaining, unexpected, and most
importantly, challenges the audience’s pre-conceived conceptions on an idea and
re-educates them on how fun and real hypnosis can be.
During HYPNOSIS [Live], twelve lucky
audience members bravely marched onto the stage to experience the show like few
ever have before.
The
most interesting part of the show is how the on-stage participants need to be susceptible
to the hypnosis. People who ‘fight’ the hypnosis or don’t fall in deep enough,
then don’t participate – leaving the hypnosis experience to those completely under
his spell.
In
the hour-long show, we saw people who were instructed to steal facial
expressions, leading the victim to start frantically grabbing the face of the
person next to them; those who were fully convinced that they were the ‘best
dancers in the world’ and proceeded to boogie down to “Baby Shark”; and even
someone who was spellbound enough to fall in love on-stage and shower the focus
of their affections in lei’s.
At
the expense of the on-stage participants, the audience responded with shocks
and laughs throughout the evening. From HYPNOSIS [Live], we’re sure Isaac’s
victims had a great time – even if they don’t remember it.
If
you’re looking to be entertained this Fringe and to challenge your idea of
reality and live hypnotism, this is one show we thoroughly suggest you see.
