A FEW COMMENTS FROM SATISFIED CLIENTS
I've used Guy many many times for both his Hypnotism Shows and Stand-Up Comedy
and to be fair, I reckon he is great. I have had him perform for the mighty Vodafone Warriors several times and they think he is great too.

Dear Guy,
Just a note to sincerely thank you for the most wonderful evening of entertainment. Your Comedy Show had everybody in fits of laughter...and as for the Hypnotism show, as one of of the participants I can say I found the experience exhilarating and the audience found it just so funny. Our delegates and staff are still talking about your show and you helped immensely in lightening the mood of a very heavy conference. If you ever need a reference I would unhesitatingly be pleased to provide one for you. All the best for the future and once again, many many thanks. You were brilliant.

THE BIG NIGHT OUT
In late October, close to 200 customers and suppliers joined us for a night of good food and wine and a lot of entertainment. Wow - what an evening....
I can give you a first hand account of the amazing powers of Hypnotist Guy Cater.
After demonstrating to us the power of the mind, by getting 4 audience members to lift Mike (from 3M) out of his chair using only their fingertips - I was enthusiastic to see how it felt to be hypnotised. Guy assured the audience that the show would be fun and user friendly so I made the rash decision to give it a go...how many other chances could I get to embarrass myself in front of colleagues and customers in one hit??!!
Soon the empty chairs gradually filled with volunteers. We were made to concentrate on our clenched fists to be brought down to a state of deep relaxation...and it was all go from there. From being the best musical instrument players in the world, to seeing crowd members naked- it was all happening!
We saw funny movies, sad movies and even dirty movies! Dean from Wipertec did a stunning Elvis impersonation and Jane, one of our key customers, gave Britney Spears a run for her money - but the show was stolen by Christchurch Branch manager Craig Harman - who convinced the crowd "he felt like a woman" Shania Twain Style with panache!
Then it was into the crowd to do the Village People's YMCA and conduct an orchestra- very rousing stuff! Amongst this mix was a James Bond - stalking the audience in search of would be terrorists!!
The finale of the night was having Tony Yaxley on stage - being told in no uncertain terms how dis-pleased the hynotised participants were, having found an unpleasant dog leftover on their chairs, seemingly planted there by him...the grovelling after that was priceless!
It was a fabulous experience - I felt elated afterwards - really fresh and re-vitalised...if ever you have the chance to go under - I recommend it ! Hats off to those Suppliers who sponsored a table - it was a great night!
