Why My Work Stands Out from Others Who Do What I Do

3/24/2012

 
The reason my work stands out from others who do what I do  stems from my core belief that true entertainment should be all about the audience and NOT about me. In other
words, the audience should be the star NOT the entertainer. My shows are therefore based on a carefully laid out plan that includes:

·         Audience Participation
·         Stage Presence
·         Character Development
·         A Comprehensive Understanding of Humor
·         The Psychology of  What Makes People Laugh
·         Mental Preparation
·         Confidence
·         Experience
·         Showmanship

When properly applied, these skills and principles along with my "secret ingredient" ultimately generate a powder keg that is primed and ready for explosive laughter, spontaneous fun and sheer amazement.


 Contained within this powder keg is a highly INTERACTIVE environment which transforms my audience  from  into active participants who  contribute to the overall entertainment value of the show .This unique environment demands that I never perform DOWN to my audience requiring them to watch  some sort of ego-maniac artist take the stage and make the show all about him. There is something inherently wrong on so many levels when any artist performs only what they want with the attitude of "Hey, look at me!" "Look at what I can do but you can't!"

Over the years I have discovered that interaction creates unique and hilarious improvisational opportunities that are truly entertaining and extremely memorable. Often times, I have seen  children (whom the parents say are shy) jump at every opportunity to join me on stage to perform either a magic trick or a  gag. The shyness quickly melts away  leading to incredible  ad-lib moments that are not only an entertainer's dream come true but are also wonderfully entertaining!

 Someone recently asked me, " What is the most valuable lesson you have learned as an entertainer?" I simply replied by saying, " Without the audience, an entertainer is nothing."

What a Fun Day This Was

3/19/2012

 
Over the weekend I worked a couple of parties both of which were a lot of fun but the last party of the day brought about some extraordinary impromptu opportunities as I performed my Comedy Magic Show. All thanks to a seven year-old girl who possessed the timing of a professional entertainer! The two of us were constantly playing off of one another which tended to "bring the house down" with laughter.
 It is this type of audience interaction that makes my shows so unique as I work tirelessly to create the perfect environment that fosters this level of participation. My philosophy is that you, the audience are the star of the show. As your entertainer,  I am  tasked with the responsibility ( that I take seriously) of utilizing my knowledge and  skill to bring out those characteristics that make you so special.
