About Kent as a mentalist

★★★★★

Kent performed at the wedding of our friends and was a fantastic addition to the evening. He moved between the tables and had every single group completely spellbound. We can only recommend him — he has a real gift for making guests feel part of it.

Natalie WinkelsVerified Client
★★★★★

We booked Kent for a client evening and he managed to inspire an entire room of people who had, frankly, seen everything. If you are looking for genuinely intelligent entertainment for a corporate event, book him.

Ramona BarschVerified Client
★★★★★

Absolutely outstanding. Kent read our minds with a terrific performance and I still have no idea how he did any of it. With his sense of humour he completely charmed the room. Perfect — thank you very much.

Frequently asked questions

For which types of events can you book Kent?

Corporate parties and conferences, award galas and fundraisers, trade show booths, theatre and casino dates, weddings and private celebrations. Anywhere a room of people needs one shared, impossible story to take home.

How much space and technology does Kent need for his show?

For the stage show: roughly 12ft by 10ft, a wireless microphone into the house system, and general stage light. For strolling and close-up work, nothing at all — Kent works entirely surrounded, with no table or setup required.

What types of shows and formats do you offer?

Three core formats: a 60 to 90 minute theatre show, a 30 to 45 minute after-dinner set, and one to three hours of strolling close-up entertainment during a reception. Formats combine easily across a single evening.

Is hypnosis dangerous? Is every person hypnotisable?

No. Nothing in the show is dangerous, embarrassing or non-consensual — volunteers stay in complete control the entire time. Kent's work is psychological suggestion and misdirection rather than clinical hypnosis, and participation is always by invitation.

How long does a typical show last?

Most bookings land between 45 and 90 minutes. Kent will recommend a running time once he knows your room, your run of show and what the evening needs to achieve.
