Plus, Comedy Hypnotist Matt Hale gives you his 100% chicken free guarantee!
After a crazy weird couple of years, which left many of us hankering for the past, Comedy Hypnotist Matt Hale has the answer. His new Fringe show, Top Fun!, whisks you back to the decade that just keeps giving – THE EIGHTIES! And of course, all blended with his much-loved brand of audience-fuelled hypno laughs.
Matt Hale is a sell-out, award-winning and headlining Fringe artist returning in 2023 with 25 performances from February 21 to March 19 at Gluttony.
“I’ve been performing my hypnosis shows for years, but it’s the first time I’ve actually themed the show. But what a theme! I mean, who doesn’t love the eighties!” says Matt.
“The last couple of years I’ve really tried to give the show a party vibe, and there’s just something special, and ridiculous, about an eighties party,” he said.
Matt Hale is an international performer renowned for his modern brand of hypno-humour that turns the traditional hypnosis show on its head. Audience members can volunteer and enjoy the show from the stage, or their seats – they choose!
Using seemingly magical powers, Matt hypnotises his volunteers to unlock the incredible ability of their mind. Using the power of suggestion, audience members will be transported into situations where they will release talents and creativity, they never knew they had.
Top Fun! is a ridiculously fun one-hour show, suitable for families, all-ages and tastes. No two shows are ever the same, and the show will leave you feeling absolutely fantastic.
“I’m a cliché buster… No shows feature swinging watches and all come with my ‘100% chicken free guarantee’! I like to take the mystery out of hypnosis and show people how and why it works, and even let them experience it themselves,” says Matt.
Winner of three national comedy awards, Matt regularly travels the world with his show, having toured Asia, UK, and having performed on some of the world’s largest cruise ships around the globe.
He’s a bestselling author and keynote speaker with his book and presentation “Mindhacking Happiness”, has released his own range of Mindhacks audio programs, and conducts group seminars on a variety of subjects including memory, stressbusting, motivation, weight management, and smoking cessation.
Oh, and he’s also currently officially 1000/1 to play the next James Bond (no, really)!
