Tap your event type to see exactly why it works, what Matt handles for you, and what your guests experience.
How the show works
No one is embarrassed. No one is forced. Volunteers are always in control, they're just having far more fun than they expected.
Volunteers take the stage
Matt invites willing guests up, explains exactly what hypnosis is (and isn't), and puts everyone at ease in minutes.
The comedy takes off
Volunteers dance, forget numbers, race in an imaginary Tour de France, and become the heroes of the night, while the audience howls.
Everyone leaves a star
Volunteers wake up refreshed and celebrated, with photos and stories they'll retell at work for months.

Speak: Matt as your keynote speaker
No show, no volunteers on stage, just a fascinating, funny, and genuinely useful talk about how the mind works. Built for conferences, professional development days, schools, and associations Canada-wide.
As a Certified Master Hypnotist, Matt explains focus, habit, and the subconscious in plain language your audience can actually use at work and at home. It's part science, part storytelling, and all engaging, the keynote people are still talking about at lunch.
Best for: conference openers and closers, PD days, leadership and team days, wellness weeks, student leadership, and association meetings where you want insight, not entertainment alone.
Popular speaking topics
Every talk is customized to your group and your event theme.
How attention really works, why distraction wins, and practical ways to get focus back.
Why we do what we do on autopilot, and how to change the habits that hold teams back.
What performers and hypnotists know about staying calm, clear, and confident when all eyes are on you.
Planning around mindset, resilience, change, or wellness? Matt builds the talk around your message.
Speak + Show: the best of both
One booking, two unforgettable parts. Matt opens with the keynote, then proves it live with The MacPhee Experience comedy hypnosis show. Education your audience remembers because they lived it, laughing the whole way through.
The keynote
A 45-minute talk on focus, mindset, and the subconscious, tailored to your organization and theme. Your group learns how the mind works, and why suggestion is so powerful.
The MacPhee Experience
The 60–90 minute family-friendly comedy hypnosis show. Volunteers become the stars and the ideas from the talk come to life on stage in the funniest way possible.

Matt MacPhee
Charlottetown-based Certified Master Hypnotist and experienced public speaker, Matt has built his reputation one room at a time: read the crowd, keep it clean, and make the volunteers the stars. His one-man show blends genuine fascination with non-stop laughter. Audiences leave questioning what they just saw, in the best possible way.
“A rollercoaster of laughter, fascination and disbelief, there is never a dull moment.”
Before you ask…
Is the show really family-friendly?
Yes, that's the brand. Every routine is clean, kind, and built so volunteers feel like heroes, never targets. It's trusted for corporate parties, schools, and community events alike.
Can someone be made to do something they don't want to do?
No. Volunteers are always in control and can open their eyes and step out at any time. Matt only works with willing volunteers, and that's exactly why the comedy lands so well.
What do you need from our venue?
Very little: a performance area, chairs for volunteers, and a power outlet. Matt brings professional sound and handles setup, you just bring the crowd.
How far do you travel?
Based in Charlottetown, PEI, and available Canada-wide, from coast to coast to coast. Matt travels nationwide for corporate events, conferences, schools, fairs, and private bookings. Ask for a travel-inclusive quote for your city.
How much does it cost?
Pricing depends on your event: audience size, venue, location, and date all play a part. Tell Matt what you are planning and he will put together a quote tailored to your event. Fast, friendly, no strings attached.
