Hypnosis is as close as you can get to real-life magic and you can witness it firsthand at the Adelaide Fringe. Isaac Lomman is an Adelaide local and Fringe staple who presents mind control in an entertaining, side-splitting yet family-friendly way, and HYPNOTIC has returned to Gluttony this year for another sensational Adelaide Fringe season—marking Isaac's impressive 11th season to date! The beauty of HYPNOTIC is that no two shows are the same, because it is so reliant on audience participation. Volunteers and audience alike are led on a journey through their own imaginations, and just as we are all unique, so are the outcomes of Isaac's shows. It's a must-see Fringe favorite, promising unforgettable moments as volunteers are hypnotized before your eyes, embarking on a hilariously unpredictable adventure into the depths of their minds. In my particular show we had interactions between men of approximately 20 years old, and women of approximately 60 years old - the results reaped uproarious laughter from all. Suitable for all ages, from 9 to 90 and spanning all walks of life, Isaac's show offers family-friendly fun for everyone to enjoy. Whether you choose to participate as a volunteer or simply watch from the crowd, the choice is always yours. In fact, why not purchase 2 tickets and experience the show from both sides of the stage? Support local talent by catching Isaac Lomman's "HYPNOTIC," proudly presented by an Adelaide local who runs his practice in Payneham. With tickets priced affordably compared to others, it's not just a fantastic entertainment choice—it's a chance to support and celebrate the talent thriving right here in our city.
