Open Wardrobes

After a couple days break for volunteered for the Fringe at Mixed Blood, I was back on stage with an 8:30 PM performance last night (which was nearly full!!). But first I caught the 5:30 PM showing of The Comedy Hypnosis Show put on my Katie Knutson, another of those folks I met during all of the previews. 5:30 on a Wednesday is a tough time for any show and it showed in the turnout, but Katie still had a good crowd of 20 or so of us.

This show exemplifies what I love about the Fringe: you can find anything there, even comedy hypnosis! Because we were a little smaller of a group, Katie invited us all onto stage to participate. I don't easily give up control, so while I felt very relaxed I'm not sure I ever truly entered hypnosis, but there were many people more open to it than I and I enjoyed watching their responses. Katie clearly knows her stuff when it comes to hypnosis, and made the experience both fun and safe for everyone. Watching the response of those in the hypnotic state was hilarious! Just one show left at this point (10 PM on Saturday), but this is definitely a show worth catching. 4 out of 5 stars
