A year ago I did a double hypnosis show when a clinical hypnotist booked a venue and asked me to join him in a show. It was a fun experience but not without its issues. I thought we might do more but as it turned out we didn't.
Last night I did another double hypnosis show with a buddy of mine, a very talented magician/mentalist (Steve Spade). It turned out to be a remarkably successful evening. The venue was a huge marquee as the main event after a major rugby tournament. There were a thousand people in the audience (a storm kept numbers down, believe it or not!). Steve opened with classic magic (bill in lemon, smash and stab). I followed with some ventriloquism. Then I did the hand clasp and invited the volunteers on stage. We both worked from different sides, meeting in the middle, and hypnotised our volunteers, then into forty five minutes of fun and madness. Steve knows my act very well, and I have worked dozens of magic shows/street events with him. So we kept a banter up and never interfered with each other. It really worked very smoothly. And having two performers changed the dynamic on stage. A successful experiment, which has been rebooked for next year's event.

Yes I have doubled up a couple times with other stage hypnotist's and truly loved the experience and yes it totally changes the dynamic. Well done Tony.

Thanks Bob. It gave me a very enjoyable night, and I hope it gave the audience a different experience from a more traditional show. It helped that it was with a friend and we knew each other's acts and ways so well.
