For ten years, The Three Waiters have been teaching audiences to expect world-class entertainment when they attend a corporate dinner, private party, or wedding. Now the award-winning creators of The Three Waiters take Surprise Entertainment to a completely new level with the unique and entertaining act, HypnoTWIST!

HypnoTWIST cleverly fuses elements of Hypnotism with Surprise Entertainment or "hoaxing", resulting in a fascinating interactive surprise. The European Hypnotist selects three volunteers from among your guests, excitement builds as the volunteers "perform" increasingly amazing feats under hypnosis which then continues to escalate to a finale of hilarious show-stopping hits! Only at the end do the actors reveal their identities and the audience realizes they have been taken in by the charade. HypnoTWIST is an exhilarating combination of surprise, humor, and a vast array of great tunes.

HypnoTWIST also has the benefit of The Three Waiters' extensive expertise in live surprise performance, based on thousands of shows performed in over 65 countries worldwide.

Tonight your special guest is world-renowned Hypnotist Ivan Lendl (not the tennis player), just back from an international concert tour of the Acropolis and the Kremlin Palace... Watch in anticipation as he chooses three volunteers from among your own guests! Watch in delight as he transforms them into rock singers, opera stars, dancers, comedians and more!

By the time your guests realize that not only is this Ivan Lendl “not the tennis player”, but also not a Hypnotist, and that the “guests” he has Hypnotized are not guests either, but professional actors, and that you’ve all been had by HypnoTWIST, they’ll be having too much fun to care…

The European Hypnotist - The Opera Star - The Rock Singer ... and the rest! HypnoTWIST is the latest incredible offering from the award winning creative team who brought you The Three Waiters.

HypnoTWIST is designed to fit seamlessly within the flow of your event; to enhance but never interrupt ...and to keep the focus where it belongs: on your message, your guests, and you.

What People Are Saying

"HypnoTWIST is a great show, and our guests loved it! It opened strong, maintained the same level of momentum until the end, and the actors were incredibly talented. So talented in fact, that there wasn’t a sound in the room during the show when the "hypnosis" began. This soon gave way to ovations and applause as the "volunteers" began to do more and more
amazing feats!"
-- Leslie Guerin, Vice President, Events Planning and Management, PNC - Global Investment Servicing

"I had the enormous pleasure of being totally sucked in, and duped by the three brilliant young talents. Anyone wanting something a little different for their evening’s entertainment couldn’t do better than to hire these hilarious villains. Do yourself a favour, and check em out!"
-- Barry H Crocker AM

"HypnoTWIST did a great job at entertaining our guests. The range of songs sang was fantastic; all well known and a great selection. You could see guests sitting there wondering “Is this for real!? Could that have been me!?” If you want something that’s a bit different, lots of fun and that will keep your guests entertained, look no further than HypOpera!”
-- Catherine Elliot - Bruce Lynton Charity Ball 2005

" You made our guests so happy! They loved your show. It was great to see the room in fits of laughter, standing and applauding – and calling for encore! I will recommend you anytime, although you’ll never be out of gig if generate as many bookings as you have from our guests – certainly a testament to what a great and professional show you have.
Thanks for making our 20th annual Melbourne Cup Lunch so memorable."
-- Sharon Quill - Event Development Manager - Variety, The Children's Charity

"HypOpera were a huge hit with our Jelly Baby Ball guests. An on-line survey following the ball rated Hypopera as one of the highlights of the night. Bold, cheeky, classy and completely surprising in its entirety, the performance kept everyone swinging between awe and incredulity, right up to the last note."
-- Leanne Pagett - Event Coordinator, Jelly Baby Ball 2005
