April 12, 2022A Great Night!
Our entire experience with Tom was great from beginning to end. He communicated prior to the event, answering all questions quickly. He delivered a great show for our high school students. They've been talking about it non-stop since. Highly recommended!!

December 9, 2024Great to work with!
Tom and his wife/assistant Lisa were great to work with, very professional and personable. Though we had a rather tough crowd, he was able to make believers out of the majority of the group and we all had a fun and fabulous time! I highly recommend hiring Tom Roth and Lisa for your next event!

December 15, 2022Holiday Party
We hired Tom for our Bank Holiday Party, and we are so happy we did. We laughed all night and are still talking about how much fun the party was. Tom and his wife Lisa are genuinely a great couple and so easy to work with. They even stayed after the show and visited, answered questions, and helped a few individuals go back into hypnosis. If you want to plan a party that people will be talking about for years, hire Tom Roth Hypnosis!!

What to expect
I'll provide a hilarious comedy stage hypnosis show specifically designed for your audience. The show is typically an hour to two hours long. I'll begin with some basic education about hypnosis which is designed to put people at ease with the concept of volunteering for the show. I like to use a "pop-quiz" format to develop audience participation. It is critical there is a high level of trust established between the hypnotist and the audience prior to asking for volunteers. After some basic education, we'll do some "suggestibility exercises" designed to engage the entire audience. Once the audience is engaged and comfortable, I'll ask for volunteers from the audience who would like to be part of the show.
Perhaps the most intriguing part of the show is the hypnotic induction. People will literally move closer to watch their friends or co-workers transition from a fully conscious state to hypnotic trance. Once we've got our group of volunteers hypnotized, we will proceed through a series of comedy routines. The volunteers are really the stars of the show. Without them, there is no show. We'll use music to enhance the experience for both the volunteers and the audience.
After we've had fun working through our routines, I'll leave the volunteers with a positive post-hypnotic suggestion- something that they want to improve on individually. After that, I'll send the volunteers back to the audience with a post-hypnotic suggestion that they will carry out after they are out of hypnosis and back in the audience.
I make an open promise to my volunteers that I will never humiliate anyone. Our collective goal is simply to have a great time. Humiliating or embarrassing someone isn't any part of what I want to do.
Each show is unique. They're unique because I design each show for the specific audience and they're unique because each group of volunteers is very different. Those differences make each show a true adventure. No two shows are or ever will be the same!
There is something very special about watching your friends or co-workers become the stars of the show. If you are looking for entertainment that folks will remember for years, consider a comedy stage hypnosis show!
About
My name is Tom Roth and I was born and raised in Bellevue, Iowa. I became fascinated with stage hypnosis when I was about 20 years old! A comedy stage hypnosis show is hilarious and intriguing.
I am a former school teacher, banker, and city administrator. I retired in 2017 and currently teach driver's education and substitute teach. I love being around people and I love making them laugh- which is why I enjoy doing comedy stage shows as much as the people who watch them!
Additional booking notes
There are a minimum number of things that are needed for a comedy stage hypnosis show. Basically, the host needs to provide a facility (indoor or outdoor), electricity, and an adequate number of chairs ( 20-30). I'll provide a sound system and any materials needed for the show. It's really that simple.

Influences and inspiration
I've trained with Dr. Jim Wand and I've certainly modeled my show after Jim's. I've admired his work for years and have enjoyed his shows tremendously.
