Comedy Hypnosis & Mind Reading Shows for Any Event
Dan Luckett is a former stand-up comedian who pursued the art of hypnotism and never looked back. He combines sharp humor with genuine stage presence to create a hypnosis show that’s as funny as it is jaw-dropping. Nobody leaves the room the same way they came in.
Chris Yantek is a master of magic at every level — inventor of tricks, cruise ship headliner, Ted Talk performer, and deep into magic theory in a way that creates setups you’ll never see coming. He’s charming, quick, and clever, but his magic and mind reading are the kind that make other magicians quietly jealous. You’ll walk away muttering “that’s not possible.”
Both performers are available individually for corporate events, holiday parties, college events, after proms, and more. Tell us about your event and we’ll recommend the right fit.
What’s to Expect With Each Show
Comedy Hypnotism Show
Dan Luckett keeps audiences in stitches while demonstrating the genuine power of hypnosis. Audience volunteers participate in hilarious demonstrations — nothing risqué, nothing harmful, nobody made to do anything they don’t want to do. Everyone leaves feeling better than they arrived. Average show runs just over an hour. A stage with 14 chairs is preferred — we can provide if needed.
Comedy Mind Reading & Magic
Chris Yantek reads minds, performs close-up magic, and keeps the whole room guessing. Audience members participate on stage. The average show runs just under an hour and can be adjusted to fit your timeline. A stage is preferred — we can provide if needed.
Comedy Illusion Show
Need to fill a big stage? Got a loud venue where magic needs to be visual rather than audible? Our illusion show delivers large-scale spectacle that works in any environment. Show length varies — a flat stage is required.

Built for Every Size Audience
Small (20–100 people)
Intimate settings are where mind reading and close-up magic shine brightest. The closer the audience, the more impossible it feels. Comedy hypnosis works especially well when everyone can see every volunteer’s face.
Mid-Size (100–300 people)
The sweet spot for both shows. Enough people to generate real energy and laughter, close enough that every audience member feels part of the experience.
Large (300–1,000+ people)
Comedy hypnosis and illusion scale beautifully to large venues. With the right staging and sound — which we provide — these shows work as full theater-style productions for conferences, festivals, and large corporate events.
What Our Show Clients Say
“
Brandie, Casper, and the Monkey Man were so amazing to work with. Brandie was my contact through the whole planning process and was so attentive and responsive to all of our needs. Our first time event was a huge success, and we look forward to working with them again in the future!

I highly recommend the Cincinnati Circus Company. When I called to book, a real person answered the phone, quickly looked us up, made great recommendations for new fun activities for our mostly young crowd, and sent out our contract on the same day.
