HYPROV with Colin Mochrie and Asad Mecci

What happens when you mix the undisputed king of improv, Colin Mochrie (yes, the legend from Whose Line Is It Anyway?), with a master hypnotist? You get HYPROV, the weirdest and funniest live comedy show currently touring the planet, and it’s coming to Brisbane Powerhouse.

This one-of-a-kind hypnosis show pulls 20 volunteers straight from the audience, hypnotises them on the spot, and throws them into improv scenes alongside Colin himself. It’s unpredictable, slightly unhinged, and absolutely brilliant. Think less scripted theatre, more beautiful, chaotic madness every single night is different.

For families with teens in Brisbane, this is your golden ticket to being cool for a night. The humour is sharp and entirely unscripted, driven by the subconscious antics of your fellow Brisbanites. It’s fascinating, slightly terrifying, and guaranteed to have everyone laughing until their ribs ache.

Brisbane Powerhouse is the perfect venue for it too get there early, grab a burger by the river, and watch the sunset before heading inside for the show. Great school holiday activity in Brisbane if you’re looking for something genuinely different from the usual.

Fair warning though: if you put your hand up to volunteer, you might find yourself convinced you’re a baby, a world-class pianist, or something far weirder with zero memory of any of it afterwards. Consider yourselves warned, mates.

HYPROV is one of those rare live entertainment Brisbane experiences you’ll be talking about for weeks. Don’t sleep on this one.

Recommended for ages 18+. Children under two are not permitted. All other ages must hold a valid ticket.
