Answer:  About 15 to 20 chairs placed in the performance area and two working electrical plugs within fifty feet of the stage is all that's needed to have a show.  Ian carries equipment capable of providing sound for crowds of up to 2,000 people.  If your school has a system and would like to use it,  Ian's system can be patched into it providing it is of suitable quality.  Good quality sound is essential to the performance.

Question: Is Hypnosis dangerous?

Answer: Hypnosis is not dangerous if practiced by a properly trained practitioner.  Ian’s background in hypnosis ensures that all volunteers are safe throughout the show. They leave the show feeling as if they have taken a refreshing nap and often spend considerable time telling fellow audience members about the great experience they had onstage.
