FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of entertainment do you provide?

I perform interactive mind reading and hypnosis entertainment for weddings, corporate events, trade shows, private adult parties, and specialty experiences.

The show is clean, funny, strange in the best way, and built around audience interaction. People do not just watch something happen. They become part of it.

Think mind reading, suggestion, psychology, impossible moments, and the kind of thing guests keep talking about after the event.


Are you a magician?

Sort of, but that is not usually the best way to describe what I do.

My work is closer to mind reading, hypnosis, and psychological entertainment than a traditional magic show. There may be impossible moments, but the focus is not rabbits, boxes, capes, or children’s birthday party tricks.

My theatre is in the mind.


What types of events are the best fit?

The best fit is usually:

  • Weddings

  • Cocktail hours

  • Wedding receptions

  • Corporate parties

  • Holiday parties

  • Awards dinners

  • Client appreciation events

  • Trade shows

  • Conferences

  • Networking events

  • Fundraisers

  • Private adult parties

  • After-dinner entertainment

  • After-Dark Experiences

If your event needs guests laughing, reacting, mingling, and saying, “How did he do that?” this may be a very good fit.


Do you perform at weddings?

Yes. Weddings are one of the best places for this kind of entertainment.

Mind reading works especially well during cocktail hour, guest arrival, room transitions, and receptions. It gives guests something to experience together instead of just standing around making polite small talk.

Wedding options can include walkaround mind reading, a reception feature, or a full wedding experience that combines both.


Is this appropriate for wedding guests of all ages?

My wedding entertainment is designed for adult-led celebrations, but weddings often include guests of all ages.

The material is clean and guest-friendly, so it can work well in rooms where children, parents, grandparents, and friends are all present. That said, I am not a children’s magician, and I do not offer a kids’ birthday party show.

The focus is the wedding, the couple, and the full guest experience.


Do you perform for children’s birthday parties?

Usually, no.

My current work is designed for weddings, corporate events, trade shows, private adult parties, and premium celebrations. It is not typically the right fit for children’s birthday parties or events looking for a traditional kids’ magician.


Do you perform for corporate events?

Yes. Corporate events are a great fit.

The show works well for company parties, holiday parties, awards dinners, client events, retreats, sales meetings, conferences, and after-dinner entertainment.

It is clean, funny, interactive, and professional without feeling stiff. The goal is to give the room a shared experience that breaks the ice and gets people talking.


Do you perform at trade shows?

Yes. Trade show booth entertainment is available by custom quote.

At trade shows, the goal is not just to entertain. The goal is to stop traffic, gather a crowd, create visible reactions, and give your sales team an easier way to start conversations.

Trade show options can include booth traffic entertainment, lead conversation openers, branded demonstrations, and VIP/client entertainment.


How much does it cost?

Wedding experiences begin at $3,000.

Corporate and adult event performances begin at $1,500.

Trade show activations are custom quoted based on the event, booth goals, schedule, location, show length, and level of customization.

Final pricing depends on date, location, guest count, travel, performance format, and production needs. Larger audiences may be priced with a guest-count adjustment so the experience is properly scaled to the room.


Why does pricing depend on guest count?

A larger audience is not just “more people watching.”

Larger events may require a different show structure, pacing, staging, sound, audience management, and preparation. Pricing scales so the experience fits the room properly instead of trying to force a small-event format into a large-event setting.


Do you charge by the hour?

Sometimes, but not always.

For certain events, hourly pricing makes sense. For others, especially weddings, corporate events, and trade shows, it is better to price the experience by format, guest count, travel, and overall event needs.

You are not just buying minutes. You are booking the moment people remember.


Do you require a deposit?

Yes. A date is not considered booked until the agreement is completed and the required retainer has been paid.

This protects your date and makes sure no one else can book that time.


How far do you travel?

I perform throughout Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Tennessee, and surrounding areas.

Common service areas include Lexington, Louisville, Cincinnati, Columbus, Dayton, Indianapolis, Nashville, and nearby regions.

I am also intentionally building more wedding, corporate, and trade show dates in the Columbus, Ohio area.


Are travel fees included?

Travel may be included or added depending on the event location, date, schedule, and performance format.

For nearby events, travel may be simple. For longer-distance events, overnight travel, early arrivals, late finishes, or multi-day commitments, travel will be factored into the quote.


How long is the show?

It depends on the format.

Common options include:

  • Walkaround mind reading during cocktail hour or mingling time

  • A 45–60 minute feature show

  • A shorter reception or after-dinner feature

  • A show plus strolling package

  • Half-day, full-day, or multi-day trade show activations

The best length depends on the event, audience, venue, and schedule.


What is walkaround mind reading?

Walkaround mind reading is interactive entertainment performed up close for small groups.

Instead of putting everyone in seats for a full show, I move through the room creating impossible moments with guests while they mingle. It works especially well for cocktail hours, receptions, networking events, and private parties.

It gives people something to talk about without stopping the flow of the event.


What is a reception feature?

A reception feature is a short performance for the whole room.

At a wedding, it might happen after dinner, before dancing, after speeches, or as a surprise entertainment moment. At a corporate event, it might happen after dinner, before awards, or during the main program.

It gives everyone a shared “you had to be there” moment.


Is hypnosis safe?

Yes. Stage hypnosis and suggestion-based entertainment are designed to be safe, fun, and voluntary.

No one is forced to do anything. Participants remain aware, involved, and able to stop at any time. The goal is laughter, surprise, and entertainment, not embarrassment.

For many events, the hypnosis elements are blended with mind reading and suggestion rather than presented as a full traditional hypnosis show.


Will guests be embarrassed?

No. The show is built to make people look good.

I do not want guests to feel trapped, picked on, or humiliated. The best reactions happen when people feel comfortable enough to play along and surprised enough to remember it.

The tone is playful, not cruel.


Is the show clean?

Yes. The main wedding, corporate, and trade show material is clean and appropriate for adult-led events.

For private adult events or After-Dark Experiences, the tone can become stranger, moodier, or more mysterious if that is what the host wants. But for weddings and corporate events, the show is designed to be safe for mixed adult audiences and professional settings.


What are After-Dark Experiences?

After-Dark Experiences are private, adult-focused performances for gatherings that want something more mysterious.

They may include mind reading, hypnosis, readings, suggestion, strange stories, and eerie little miracles. This is where the darker, weirder, more psychic-style material belongs.

After-Dark Experiences are best for private parties, themed events, intimate gatherings, and grown-up audiences who want the lights a little lower.


Do you need a stage?

Not always.

Walkaround mind reading usually does not require a stage. A feature show may need a clear performance area, good sightlines, and sound depending on the size of the audience.

For larger events, sound and staging become more important. We will discuss that before the event so the setup fits the room.


Do you provide your own sound system?

For smaller events, sound needs may be simple.

For larger weddings, corporate events, or trade shows, the venue, DJ, AV team, or event production team may need to provide suitable sound. The exact needs depend on audience size, room layout, and performance format.

If sound is needed, I will let you know clearly before the event.


Can you work with my wedding planner, event planner, DJ, venue, or AV team?

Yes. That is usually the best way to do it.

I am happy to coordinate timing, setup, sound, room flow, and performance placement with your planner, venue, DJ, or production team so the entertainment fits the event instead of interrupting it.


Can the show be customized?

Yes, depending on the event.

For weddings, customization may include the couple, wedding story, special guests, or a surprise moment.

For corporate events, customization may include company themes, leadership involvement, product ideas, client appreciation, or event messaging.

For trade shows, customization may include brand language, product connections, lead handoff, or booth goals.


How early should I book?

As early as you can, especially for weddings, holiday parties, and peak event dates.

Premium Saturdays, December corporate dates, trade show dates, and busy travel weekends can book well in advance. If your date matters, it is better to check availability early.


What information do you need for a quote?

The most helpful details are:

  • Event date

  • Event city and venue

  • Event type

  • Guest count

  • Desired entertainment format

  • Approximate schedule

  • Indoor or outdoor setting

  • Whether you have a planner, venue contact, DJ, or AV team

  • What you want guests to experience

If you are not sure what format you need, that is fine. Tell me about the event and I can recommend the best fit.


What makes this different from hiring a DJ, photo booth, or traditional magician?

Those can all be great, but they do different jobs.

A DJ supports the party.
A photo booth captures moments.
A traditional magician often presents tricks.

My work creates the moment people react to together.

It is interactive, personal, strange, funny, and built around the audience. The goal is not just to fill time. The goal is to give guests something they remember.


How do I check availability?

Use the Check Availability page and tell me a little about your event.

If the date is open, I will recommend the best format based on your event type, location, guest count, schedule, and goals.
