Robert Temple: the Hypnotist - RED RAW
LAUGH ’TIL YOU’RE RED IN THE FACE

“The Hypnotist: Red Raw” is a brand new show where volunteers from the audience unlock their imaginations and create a once-in-a-lifetime show of improvised comedy under the influence of hypnosis - live on stage.

Robert Temple is back on tour after a phenomenal 23-day run at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2019, with this all new show featuring brand new sketches that’ll have you howling for days.

Things will be imagined, people’s identities forgotten, changed and their reality completely altered. All in in the spirit of a ruddy good laugh.

It’s the perfect night out whether you watch from the audience or you choose to participate as a star of the show, this is a night out not to be missed.

*No actors are used, members of the audience are asked to volunteer if they would like to participate at the start of every performance.

Not suitable for under 15’s.
