“This guy is the whole package: charming, professional, and serious about his craft! Anytime he isn’t doing shows he is engaged in professional development and brainstorming new ways to push the envelope. Truly one of the best in his industry.”
“We have hired Michael Mist for our high school after prom party for years now and his show is always the hi-light of the evening! He is very personable, very easy to work with, and a CLASS ACT! His talent and work ethic would be enough to recommend him, but when you add that his show is such a huge hit, it’s a no-brainer.”
“Michael performed at our orientation week and not only is he a fantastic hypnotist, he’s also a true gentleman who worked around a few obstacles that evening with a smile on his face and not a discouraging word. An absolute pleasure from my first contact with him until the end of the evening. Our students have already requested him for next year. ”

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes—entertainment hypnosis is widely considered safe when performed by an experienced, ethical professional who prioritizes consent, dignity, and participant well-being. Volunteers remain aware and in control at all times, cannot be made to do anything against their will, and can stop participating whenever they choose. Reputable performers clearly explain the process, use appropriate content, and maintain a safe physical environment. You cannot get “stuck” in hypnosis, and the experience is generally described as fun, positive, and relaxing.

General Technical Needs:
Performance area of 24′ x 16′ or larger is ideal, but not mandatory.
12-20 straight back armless chairs for the volunteer participants.
Quality sound system with a hand-held wireless microphone.
-
The show works well for both medium and large audiences. From 100-1,000 Michael can capture them all!
-
No. Participation is completely voluntary. Only people who choose to come onstage take part in the hypnosis portion of the show. Michael’s show includes pre-hypnosis entertainment including briefly hypnotizing your entire audience to find the perfect on-stage hypnosis volunteers.
-
NOT recommended! The Hypnosis Show works with a SINGLE group of self-selecting volunteers. Participants go deeper into trance as the show progresses. The deeper levels allow increasingly unique and interesting skits to develop.
The Hypnosis Show is something that unfolds like a movie experience. You DON’T want to suddenly change the actors and start back at the beginning!
Remember, your performer does interactive things with the entire audience during the opening comments, so everyone is indeed a part of the action. Meanwhile, the BEST volunteers for the stage will be those people who are motivated, and “chomping at the bit” to volunteer as soon as they are given the chance.
