CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

"I would like to thank you for a fantastic show.  It is something I had never seen live in person and was truly amazing.  I didn't believe the power of Hypnosis, but now I must believe!  The small country community does not get the opportunity for First class entertainment like your show.  For Kevin to bring it to the bush, we all thank you very much.  With hardly a dry eye in the house, it will be talked about for a very long time and will not be forgotten in a hurry.  Thanks for the laughs."

"This is the second time I have engaged this show, and once again........fabulous!"

- Patti O'Donnell, College Burser, Clonard College, Geelong

-Suzanne Radford, Executive Assistant, Nufarm Limited

"A huge thank you Kevin & Jenny for livening up the afternoon at our National Conference.  We wanted something "different" to provide our team with some entertainment...........and the show was certainly entertaining to say the least!  We never knew we had such a talented bunch of performers and the audience was rolling in the aisles with laughter as they watched them on stage.  An extra special thank you to Jenny for all her assistance getting this up and running at such short notice.  our spontaneous and last minute decision to utilise a hypnotist was only made possible by all of Jenny's help and diligence and from the moment that we spoke on the phone, I knew we had made the right decision. Thanks Kevin & Jenny for a fantastic show."

-Laura Di Mauro, Executive Assistant to General Manager, realestate.com.au

"Kevin and Jenny put on a great show for our P&O Conference at Aitken Hill.  We thought initially that we would have to bribe people to volunteer, but we had so many keen people to have a go, which was great. Kevin was absolutely brilliant at getting the volunteers to do incredible things and as a spectator it was the funniest thing to watch........you know you see these shows on TV and think ......mmmmm not sure if this is real!  But having this done live, and on the spot, made it all the more enjoyable.  I have never laughed so much and would highly recommend the show to any company looking for something different to have at their next corporate function"

-Rita Galea, People & Organisation Co-Ordinator, Mars Snackfood

"Kevin and Jenny put on a great show for us! It was enjoyed by all and we will definitely have them back in years to come. It was a very funny function and I would highly recommend Kevin's Stage Hypnosis Show to other sporting clubs."

-Drew Arentz, Tooleybuc Manangatang Football Club

 - Tania Marinucci, Sales Support Executive, Optus

"I can't thank you enough, our conference was all about getting key messages to a large audience, but doing it differently to try and obtain an even greater result. One of the messages was about the importance of having fun, because if you enjoy coming to work, the results speak for themselves. I believe you hit the mark for us and I will recommend you to our other state departments, so once again thanks, it was fantastic, our staff are still talking about it."

-John Briggs, Regional Manager, Hagemeyer Australia

"Thank you so much for coming to our 'mountain'  - we had a ball! I can't remember the last time I laughed out loud so much and I haven't seen my husband laugh like that for a long time either - it really was a tonic for all who attended your performance! Quite a few people who attended/participated all said the same - one of the best nights out they've had for a long time, and they didn't even have to go off the mountain! The night was a great success both entertainment wise and financially for the club, so it really was a win/win situation for all involved. Kevin really is a talented man. Whether it's the power of persuasion, open mindedness or sheer stupidity, everyone on the stage felt great after the performance - even the ones who tried to convince us that they 'weren't under' - yeah right! We really did have one of the best nights - my face was still sore the next morning. Thank you so much Kevin and Jenny for a mesmerising evening!"

-Laura Caine, Treasurer, Kinglake Football Club Inc.

"Thanks for the great performance for our function which we held in Lorne. It really made the night! Our guests enjoyed themselves and got involved, as did the audience. We felt that both Kevin and Jenny were very professional to deal with, and that contributed to the evening running so smoothly."

-Chana Walles, Business Manager, Oz Kosher Getaways.

"Kevin put on a very professional, high energy, dynamic and outrageously fabulous show. Some comments from the team - "Had a ball", "Great fun", "Engaging", "Very entertaining", "My stomach muscles still hurt the next day from laughter". It was a fantastic evening of entertainment that kept people talking for days!"

-Rosey Conway, Sales Training Manager & Conference Co-ordinator, InsuranceLine

"Kevin Grisé inspired the staff at AOT to be motivated and to open their minds to greater possibilities. The feedback from the entire staff was fantastic. We are all deeply grateful to have experienced your performance and especially on behalf of those who contributed on the night. Those who participated and played a role felt very relaxed afterwards to the point where they felt that they actually had a nap. They all certainly felt a tremendous amount of satisfaction. The success stories presented to me by the staff who contributed are first and foremost a testament to the human mind-power and a true revelation. We are also grateful for the entertaining aspect of the performance. It was truly the funniest show we have seen in a long time. Those in a trance were aware of what was happening around them but did not have any control. Any scepticism I had has now disappeared and I might just volunteer next time! You have proven to be a very professional, hypnotic and motivational speaker and we would not hesitate in making strong recommendations for your performance in the future. We would like to express our abundant gratitude for a very entertaining and intriguing evening."

-Dina Papas, AOT Group Pty Ltd

"From Elvis to Madonna our colleagues transformed before our eyes under the skilful direction of Kevin Grisé. Booking entertainment for 200 colleagues is always a risky business, but any hypnosis sceptics became believers as an hour of hilarious entertainment, starring some very familiar faces, unfolded before time. Working with Jenny Kanter was an absolute pleasure, friendly, efficient and accommodating of all our requests - if only organising all entertainment could be this easy! So if you are looking for a professional, tasteful but hilarious, highly interactive entertainment option - you'd be hard pressed to do better than Kevin Grisé. Thanks again for the great entertainment, it was a pleasure both on the night, and organising the event."

-Matthew O'Donnell, Customer Service Manager, AGL

"After the huge success of last year's show and the distance involved in getting Kevin and Jenny here to our Mine site in the West Kimberley region of Western Australia, we decided that this time with a lot more people and to cater for all swings, 5 days would be much more Fun and we were not disappointed. Kevin's Stage Shows are Hilarious and are even more entertaining when you know the "volunteers" in their normal state. It's all good, clean fun and a very good "Laugh 'til it hurts" show. During the day Kevin held sessions for us which were well received on Self Hypnosis techniques for exercise, motivation, diet and to stop-smoking etc. We look forward to getting Kevin and Jenny back next year and would recommend any other Mine thinking about having a Show with a difference to do it, as you will be impressed."

-Bruce Lyon, Vice-President, Ellendale Social Klub Inc (ESKI), Kimberley Diamond Company

"Thank you for taking the time to visit with us and to put on a wonderful show! Kevin's show was a real highlight for the members of the Carbine Club of Papua New Guinea and their guests at the lunchtime function. The members of the Carbine Club of Papua New Guinea are a discerning group and expect the Club to present a certain quality and standard of entertainment at their functions. Kevin's show not only lived up to the high standards, but exceeded all expectations. The show is still being talked about now, some weeks later! Kevin can come back to any of our functions anytime he likes!"

-Henry Kila, President, Carbine Club of Papua New Guinea

"When I first told people that Kevin Grisé would be presenting a Hypnotist show at our Gala Ball, I received mixed reactions. The majority were excited. A few were quite sceptical. The reaction of the crowd on the night was breathtaking. I looked around to see everyone so involved and anticipating the next move. Kevin was mind blowing and the experience irreplaceable. I recommend Kevin's show as a 5 star MUST SEE !!!"

-Connie Pignataro, Mental Illness Gala Ball

"I just had to send you a note of thanks for the wonderful entertainment you provided at the Caravan Parks Industry Conference in Victoria. I must say I had long been a sceptic of 'that' style of entertainment. To my surprise and enjoyment I found your presentation (prefaced with your rational explanation) to be both hilariously entertaining and inspirational. I couldn't wait to try a couple of your tricks on my kids when I flew back to Perth the next day. Thank you for allowing me to be 'part of the show' in Shepparton. It turned out to be a night I will never forget."

-Bryan Paul, pieNETWORKS Ltd

"On behalf of the co-founders, staff and employees of Liberty League International, I wish to thank you for the splendid job you did with your presentation at our Liberty Conference in Hawaii. Your presentation was very entertaining and "corporate friendly". This presentation fit perfectly into our "Beyond Freedom" philosophy, making it a unique experience for all involved. We have received only positive comments on your Show and Seminar. Once again, thank you for coming all the way to Hawaii to help make our Liberty Conference so successful."

-Tony Thomas, Chief Operating Officer, Liberty League International, Arizona, USA

"Just a short note to tell you how much I enjoyed working with you Kevin and Jenny, in Hawaii at the Liberty League Conference. Both of you were a pleasure to work with. You had a great attitude and caring heart. I look forward to working with you again some time in the future."

-Joe Martin, Joe Martin Event Management, Florida USA

"Kevin's show at the restaurant was great. I think it impressed alot of sceptics and also uncovered some hidden talents in a few individuals. I can highly recommend the performance for its entertainment value and it definitely made you think about the power of suggestion!! It had all 80 of us spellbound. We hope to be able to use Kevin's talents again in the future."

-Nicola Richards, Marketing Manager, Sanofi-Aventis

"Thank you Jenny and Kevin for your involvement in the 10th annual Laing + Simmons Convention. The show was the perfect start to our weekend. It was funny (at times hysterical), it broke the ice amongst those who didn't know each other and most importantly was appropriate for a corporate crowd and didn't embarrass any of the participants. The self-hypnosis presentation the next day was also perfect. I don't think there is any way we would have all stayed awake through the afternoon without having our guided self-hypnosis. Some of my staff are practising on themselves every day with great success. Thanks again, you were both extremely professional and a pleasure to work with. I would be more than happy for any potential clients to call me to confirm this testimonial."

-Leanne Pilkington, General Manager, Laing + Simmons Corporation

"Kevin was AMAZING! His show was thoroughly entertaining and educational and we all laughed until we cried. Everyone was talking about him for weeks after and we definitely want him back!"

-Pam Nicholls, Rosebud Football Club

"A big thank you Kevin and Jenny, for your performance at Moriah College Sydney. David Shaw, the director of the College, was extremely happy not only with your performance which was fabulous, but also with the fact you were so accommodating on such a busy day. Thanks so much and I look forward to future bookings."

-Luca Ricciardiello, Entertainment & Event Coordinator, Music Theatre Australia

"Thank you for suggesting Kevin Grisé to perform for our Purim Extravaganza on campus. Kevin Grisé and his assistant Jenny Kanter were fabulous. The audience loved them and it was a delight to host them. Thank you for all you did to put together a fun filled day. I look forward to putting next year's programme together with you."

-David Shaw, Director Informal Jewish Education, Moriah College

"Kevin delivered a fantastic show during our Orientation Week. He is a great entertainer who had people both amazed and laughing at the same time. The students loved the show and were still talking about it days after. Kevin Grisé and Jenny Kanter were both easy to work with and extremely well prepared. Thanks again to both of you for a fantastic evening."

-Andrea Kornhoff, Clubs Development & Events Manager, Bendigo Student Association Inc., LaTrobe University, Bendigo Campus

"Kevin's show was fantastic! We have had such great feedback from staff who attended the function. It has been the topic of conversation for nearly a week now. The Hypnotist show was extremely entertaining for those up on stage and also for those sitting in the audience. We highly recommend Kevin Grisé for any function you may have, either personal or corporate. He was professional and made all those participating feel extremely comfortable. Thanks again for the experience and for all you did for us. It was an amazing show."

-Stephanie Pappas, Ajilon Australia

"Western Australian export Rose Porteous, last week was put into a trance by hypnotist Kevin Grisé on Channel Seven's Comic Relief. At the program's after-party, Rose was effusive and extending dinner invitations to just about everyone at the event!"

-The Melbourne Age Newspaper

"Thank you for a great show. Kevin is a true professional. The inclusion of your show largely contributed to the success of our National Roadshow. The feedback from both the audience and participants clearly indicated Kevin did a wonderful job at introducing them to the world of hypnotism (as well as getting alot of laughs along the way!). It was really great working with Kevin and Jenny. We had a blast doing the shows. Both Kevin and Jenny are so easy to get along with... believe me, we had previous 'Celeb' guests and that was a MUCH different experience. So thanks for being so down to earth!! It will be extremely hard for us to source an act that supersedes Kevin's for our 2006 event!!"

-Cindy Steele, Account Executive - Telstra Consumer & Marketing, Telstra/Australia Post Roadshow

"What can I say? The community of Simpson in Victoria has not stopped raving about your performance since you were here and that was over 3 weeks ago!!! It was really great that you could come to such a small town and make such a huge impression. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the night turned out to be a huge success. It is an extremely hard job to find entertainers who will travel to small communities (and even harder to find good ones) but Kevin Grisé and Jenny Kanter were amazing. Not just the performance side but also the organisation side. You made my job so easy, a couple of phone calls and the night was organised. I couldn't have asked for easier or nicer people to deal with. Thank you both so much for a great night!!!"

-Michele Fratantaro, Simpson Kindergarten, Simpson Victoria

"My sincere thanks to Kevin and Jenny for a terrific show. Everyone is still talking about the night and it has really contributed towards a standout conference. Everything was fantastic and while extremely informative and funny, still handled in good taste, ensuring the audience were all comfortable with the show and what would be asked of them. I also really appreciated how flexible you both were. Your consideration in fitting in with our timetable was appreciated. I hope to work with you both again in the future."

-Colin Freeman, Product Marketing Manager, DORMA Glass, Australia & New Zealand

"When you work on a small minesite, in a remote region of the West Kimberley in Western Australia, entertainment for employees can sometimes be a little hit and miss. Kevin was definitely a huge hit and the show was an outstanding success! Since the show, employees have not stopped asking when will Kevin be coming back again. There was an element of "fear of the unknown" in some of the volunteers, but they soon learnt that Kevin would treat them all with nothing but respect and dignity, while also providing the crowd with fantastic entertainment. All at the show had great fun, including the volunteers, and weeks later, people are still reliving and enjoying the night. Thanks Kevin and Jenny for taking the time to travel great distances and visit our small minesite, providing us with hilarious entertainment. Also a huge thank you for taking the time after the show, to talk to those who were curious about what they had just seen. We all had a fantastic night and I can't wait for the next show!".

-Danni Turley, Secretary, Ellendale Social Klub inc., Kimberley Diamond Company, Western Australia

"When you work out in the middle of nowhere for long stretches it's important to get your mind off work sometimes. So mining companies often go out of their way to keep the troops entertained. Up at Kimberley Diamond Company's Ellendale mine, the Ellendale Social Klub Incorporated (or ESKI as it's known) really put their minds together to come up with the latest idea. They flew in hypnotist Kevin Grisé who performed one of those crazy shows where he gets people thinking they are the likes of Kylie Minogue, Elvis or Eminem. Perhaps the Chairman of the mine could put the hypnotist's talents to good use. He'd certainly be handy in board meetings or testy negotiations! But shareholders can rest easy none of this fun is eating into profits. The social club pays for all this!"

-West Australian Newspaper - Business section

"Fortunately Kevin uses his exceptional professional talents for good and not evil! Incredible to watch - hard to believe it is really happening to people you know - totally slapstick. The great show you provided made a huge difference to the enjoyment levels of staff, especially after having a sad history of disappointment with lack of, or poor entertainment. Kevin is value added plus! Thanks also to Jenny for the seamless and smooth organisation prior to the evening - very easy to work with."

"After your show, I have been asking people their thoughts, and all positive comments. The show was full of entertainment, and not knowing what to expect, it just made me sit there in awe the whole show through, along with laughter on top of that. We also want to thank you very much for bringing a bit of the city to the country. Normally we have to miss out on these sort of entertainment gigs, being that no-one wants to travel, but that was wonderful that you went to the effort of coming to our very welcoming country town."

-Amanda Oakley, SpudFest, Pinnaroo, South Australia

"Kevin Grisé, The Hypnotist extraordinaire, spectacularly held the audience captive for over an hour with his consummate professionalism and wonderful theatre entertainment. Kevin was an outstanding success at our Dinner. The obvious safety of the volunteers involvement & the wholesomeness of their 'side splitting' responses kept the audience captive & in a state of total entertainment. His ability and showmanship in his skilful management of the volunteers both on and off the stage, provided a sequence of events that was totally explosive! Kevin's consummate professionalism had people wide eyed for the total presentation, that was when they weren't wiping their eyes from wonderful and continuous bouts of pure unrepressed and uninhibited enjoyment. We could not have chosen better for the event. We also had two Government Ministers in the audience who were evidently in accord with the audience, their enjoyment was immediate and sustained throughout the event. We were also incredibly impressed with his generosity of time. Kevin was not allowed to leave, the audience groaned when he indicated he was drawing to a close and I know he extended the time for them. Everything he did was the mark of excellence. Kevin's corporate delivery at his workshop was exceptionally well attended. His corporate delivery has extended value in relation to stress management and relaxation techniques."

-Carole Gregson, National Employment Services Association, Adelaide Conference

"Kevin has an innate ability to draw in and capture his audience, ultimately resulting in a truly professional and unique performance. All the guests at my 21st Birthday party were excited but skeptical about the idea of a hypnotist, but immediately those preconceptions were cast aside, as everyone wanted to play a part of the show. I was initially concerned that not enough people would be willing to be hypnotised, as it was a small group of 40 people, but Kevin was inundated with volunteers and the audience was involved, feeling like they were part of the show also. Kevin managed to integrate older guests with younger guests, to provide some hilarious moments! Kevin and Jenny provided a seamless service, which inspired confidence with regards to the performance. Kevin is the ideal entertainer for a party with a twist that will be talked about long after."

-Rebecca Robertson, 21st Birthday Party Host

"We had Kevin perform for our Baseball Club and had a fantastic night! He catered for people who were very skeptical of hypnotism and those willing to give it a shot, with no pressure if you did not want to try it. The whole night was run in a very professional way, with our Club not having to worry about a thing, but just to relax and enjoy the show. I would recommend Kevin to anyone looking for a different night for their work or club."

-Mathew Kent, Montmorency Baseball Club

"It is with a great deal of pleasure that on behalf of WIZO Victoria, I thank you for the outstanding entertainment at our inaugural Fathers Day function in September. We could not have chosen a better entertainment for this occasion. The ease with which the function was organised was a pleasure and the professionalism and entertainment factor of Kevin's craft left the audience enthralled. We have had amazing feedback from all those who attended. We look forward to experiencing Kevin's magic once again soon."

-Paulette Cherny, President - WIZO Women's International Zionist Organisation

"Just wanted to thank Kevin and the team for the performance at our End of Financial Year Party last month. Having never seen a performance remotely similar, it was quite intriguing. The professionalism and respect held for the 'volunteers' was admirable. Watching the innocence of actions was thoroughly enjoyable to share a laugh with each other. It's a shame the time passed so quickly."

-Elaine Beck, Business Delivery Manager, Workplace Resources, Sun Microsystems

"His session was only a short one, but it was so successful that we regret not booking him for one of our night functions. Our group of "very jaded" licensees thought he was brilliant, entertaining and educational. I would thoroughly recommend Kevin for any conference and I have no hesitation in booking him again for another of our conferences or group meetings."

-Nita Walker, Hertz Australia Pty Limited

"With a franchise group such as Cartridge World, you had the added pressure of people not wanting to get up on stage in front of their peers and perhaps say or do something that could affect the working relationship. You managed to not only get around this issue, but also give us a show that was still being talked about the next day. I was one of the sceptics, but after seeing with my own eyes, the reaction of people both on stage and from within the audience, I could only recommend your show highly. You gave a polished and vibrant performance, that kept everyone totally captivated."

-David Campbell, Master Franchisee, Cartridge World

"Absolutely wonderful!!! Thank you for making the evening such a huge success. All staff, partners and volunteers have raved about the show and all skeptics have a newfound respect for hypnotism. Kevin handled all volunteers (who actually ran up on stage) with total professionalism and delivered a high class show. We highly recommend Kevin for all Corporate Functions - the show was brilliant."

- Angela Brown, LaTrobe Home Loans.

"Thank you for making our midyear function such a huge success. Kevin's professionalism & showmanship was amazing & everybody is raving over the whole performance. We will definitely be recommending you to our friends & customers who are looking for something unique at their function. I am looking forward to someday in the future working with you again as both you and Jenny Kanter were such a pleasure to deal with, nothing was too much trouble."

-Kaylene Wilson, Mainfreight International

"Thank you for the job you did at the Honda Technician of the Year Awards". That the night was a resounding success, and by that I mean your part in it, was the result of careful planning, an acute awareness of the sensibilities of the people who were hosting the event and an entertaining delivery that involved the whole audience. I was surprised at the enthusiasm of those who were the subjects on stage, but not surprised, after your earlier assurances, at the respect and care shown to them while they were onstage and afterwards. If I was asked to sum up the performance, I'd say professional, respectful and hugely entertaining. Thanks for a great show."

-Geoff Haines, Geoffrey Haines & Associates

"For and on behalf of Honda Australia, I would like to express my sincere thanks to a great team in Kevin and Jenny. Our annual Technicians Competition is held in high esteem within our dealerships and to have such a wonderful and entertaining show, certainly completed our special night. The audience and volunteers were totally spellbound with Kevin's special skills. As a professional show, this was delivered to meet and bypass the audiences expectations. I would implore other Corporate companies to engage Kevin as their entertainment, only if you want to have your staff laugh their heads off and have a great time!"

-James Kerr, Technical Training Manager, Customer Services, Honda Australia

"On behalf of the East Doncaster Cricket Club, I would like to thank Kevin for the hugely successful hypnotist night function we had.  Kevin's ability to hold the audience in total disbelief and his ability to modify his show to suit the cricketing audience was fantastic. This will be an extremely difficult function to match over the next few seasons, and we recommend Kevin's show to anyone looking for a terrific function or corporate event. Thanks to Kevin and Jenny for a fantastic night!"

-Stewart Purvis, East Doncaster Cricket Club

"On behalf of Bosch Power Tool Sales & Marketing team, we thank you for a brilliant show at our Gala Dinner. Not only was the theme appropriate to the audience, the atmosphere created by Kevin was outstanding, even some of the "actors" were congratulated on their efforts the next day by the team! All in all, both the "actors" and the audience had a great time, which was fantastic for fostering a team spirit in a positive, fun environment."

-Jacqui MacDonald, Brand Manager, Power Tools, Bosch Australia

"Kevin Grisé produced an outstanding show that provided our staff with engaging entertainment. I would highly recommend Kevin for Corporate Functions. The show was truly amazing."

- Trish McBurnie, DWS Advanced Business Solutions

"Thanks for a great night. I went home soooooo relaxed. All the guys and girls from work keep bringing the night up and talking about it. We all enjoyed ourselves. Thanks for the entertainment and experience"

-Michael Lazzari, participant in Stage Hypnosis Show

"Congratulations on such a great show!!! Before coming to your show, I was a skeptic on stage hypnotism. But after coming up on stage and being hypnotised, I now believe that it truly can be done. I would recommend the experience to anyone who's a skeptic or otherwise, as I haven't felt as relaxed as I did after the show for a very long time. Thanks for the fun and laughs."

-Luke Simmons, participant in Stage Hypnosis Show

"I just wanted to tell you that I was extremely skeptical to start with, but my attitude has changed since I took the plunge and went up on stage. I had such a good time and felt so fantastic after it, that I can't stop telling my friends how wonderful it is. Thank you for bringing it to Melbourne and I hope you enjoy continued success..... I for one, intend to come and see it again with more of my friends!"

-Joanne Rochelle, participant in Stage Hypnosis Show

"Thank you for performing your Stage Hypnosis Show at our Shipping Industry Charity Ball. We were very impressed by Kevin's professionalism and his act was one that made the night. The Hypnosis show was something new and so different from the normal comedy or dancing acts that people are used to and it really won the audience over. Kevin does not humiliate the partipants in any way by making them do stupid things, but rather takes the best out of them. I would recommend Kevin Grisé to any potential events organiser who is looking for something different and entertaining. You will be entertained!"

-Gilbert Ernest, Corporate Accounts Manager, ANZDL, a division of CP Ships (UK) Ltd
