Abstract

The invention provides for a method of hypnotizing and entertaining members ( 20, 22 ) of an audience including the step of performing a dramatic presentation with actors ( 24, 26 ) to present a dramatic presentation. A trance is induced by a first actor ( 24 ) in the presentation on a second actor ( 26 ). A storyline is presented in the presentation. The storyline has characters, a setting, and a plot with the plot including a conflict, a climax, and a resolution.
