SWARTZ CREEK – Hypnotist Michael Brody will entertain audiences at the Performing Arts Center at 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 7.
Brody will enlist the help of audience volunteers to undergo hypnosis, then give them post-hypnotic suggestions.
“He will have people convinced they are meeting their favorite movie stars, they have lost their belly buttons (or) they are beauty queens,” said Craig Martin, PAC executive director.
“Whatever he comes up with is sure to entertain. (But) don’t worry. Contrary to popular belief, you will not do anything under hypnosis that you normally wouldn’t do. Hypnosis just lowers your inhibitions a bit. It doesn’t hurt, and everyone says it is very relaxing.”
Brody has performed throughout the state. “(He) is very funny all on his own,” said Martin, “but when you get 16 hypnotized people on stage, the fun is only beginning.”
The show lasts about 90 minutes.
