Why Michael C. Anthony?
Michael C. Anthony is one of the most talented and experienced stage hypnotists in the world. VH1 calls him the best stage hypnotist on the planet. You simply won’t find anyone more qualified performer to put on the funniest stage hypnosis show you will ever see. Michael’s attention to detail and audience management have made him one of the most sought after entertainers of his type in the world.
Where has the show been presented?
Michael’s show plays approximately 110 times a year from coast to coast at colleges, high schools and corporate events. Michael has toured extensively for the last 14 years, in the US and Canada.
Do people actually volunteer to be hypnotized?
One thing for sure is that there is never a shortage of volunteers. Michael doesn’t force anyone to come on stage. Every night, adults and students alike happily volunteer for the show. Many people choose to stay in their seat and simply watch the hilarious antics of those on stage. Remember, you can See the Show or you can Be the Show.
Is the show clean?
Completely clean! It’s a family show. Michael treats his volunteers with respect and they become the real stars of the show. Nobody does or says anything against their will while under a state of hypnosis. It’s impossible. In fact Michael can accommodate any additional precautions necessary at your school simply by working it into the induction process. For instance, he could insist there be absolutely no swearing from any of the volunteers.
Do parents enjoy the show as well?
Absolutely! Parents enjoy the show every bit as much as the students. Michael is a regular performer in the corporate market. The show always goes over huge for adult audiences.
Is it a lot of work to produce the show?
Not for you. All we require is an adequate venue with a large stage, minimal lighting, 15-20 armless chairs, and an adequate sound system with a sound technician. If you need help with any of these elements we will be happy to help find them for you.
How are tickets sold and tracked?
This is the easy part. Students sell tickets to friends and family through our virtual box office. Users buy and receive their tickets online. This removes the burden of providing tickets and collecting revenue as well as ensuring a safe environment for students. You can easily sell thousands of tickets in a very short time frame with the virtual box office. We ask that you put a link to ticket information on your school’s website as well. You will receive your own login and password so you can track ticket sales and print reports.
How and when do we receive the raised money?
After we have sold the set amount of tickets, we are ready to transfer funds into an escrow account. This can be months before show time. The funds will remain in escrow until the final show is performed. The morning after the final show is performed the escrow company will provide you a check for your portion of the funds. It’s that simple! We would love to provide you with a large novelty check and take a photo with you.
