Comedy hypnosis that turns your guests into the entertainment
Most party entertainment happens in the corner while people carry on chatting. This is the opposite. Lara brings a live comedy hypnosis show to your venue, and the people on stage are your own guests.
For around 90 minutes, the whole room watches the same thing, laughs at the same moments and ends up on its feet for the Hypno Rave finale.

- Hen & Stag Parties
- Christmas Parties
- Private Celebrations
WHY IT WORKS SO WELL AT PARTIES
At most parties, groups stay in their own little circles. A DJ fills the silence and a quiz keeps people busy, but neither gives the room a shared moment.
Comedy hypnosis does, because everyone knows the people on stage. Watching a stranger dance like nobody’s watching is mildly funny. Watching your brother-in-law do it, completely convinced he’s headlining a 90s rave, is something people will bring up for years.
It also works across ages and friendship groups. Your uni friends, your colleagues and your aunt will all be laughing at the same thing.
WHAT HAPPENS AT A COMEDY HYPNO RAVE?
Lara talks to you about your group, your venue and the tone you want. If there's someone who'd love to be picked, or someone who absolutely shouldn't be, this is when you say so.
Lara explains what hypnosis is and what it isn't, then invites volunteers to take part in a few simple exercises. Nobody is picked against their will. The guests who respond best are invited to stay on stage.
Volunteers are taken through a series of comedy routines while everyone else watches. Expect forgotten names, unexpected love affairs, comedy police and a lot of very confident dancing.
Music, lights and props come out as the show builds into the Hypno Rave. By this point the audience usually joins in.
Volunteers are brought back to normal, feeling relaxed and usually wondering what they just did. Your guests will fill them in.
REAL PARTIES. REAL REACTIONS.
“The show itself was such a highlight… 90 minutes of brilliant hypno-entertainment that had everyone laughing, buzzing and genuinely fascinated.”
“What a night!!!! She absolutely smashed it and had everyone in hysterics. She really is fantastic at what she does.”
PERFECT FOR…
A 30th, 40th or 50th where you want the night remembered for more than the bar tab.
Something the whole group can do together, with the bride on stage or safely in the audience. Your call.
Lara has performed for all-male groups and knows how to keep the energy up. The stag rarely escapes.
A shared experience that gets colleagues from different teams talking, without anyone being forced into a team-building exercise.
Anniversaries, engagements, leaving dos and family get-togethers. The show is adapted to your group, so it can be kept family friendly or made a bit cheekier.
WHY BOOK LARA
Lara performs the Comedy Hypno Rave at fringe festivals, comedy clubs, pubs and restaurants, so your party gets a proper show, tested in front of live audiences.
Taking part is always a choice. Anyone who'd rather watch just watches.
The comedy comes from what people's imaginations do under hypnosis. Volunteers come off stage buzzing, not embarrassed.
