Over £9,000 was raised for Marie Curie Cancer Care last Friday night at the Iveagh Movie Studios where the largest theatre was full to capacity.

Michael McCoy, Master Hypnotist, soon relaxed the ‘volunteers’ and they fully hypnotised in a few minutes. Michael had the stars of the show following his every instruction, inhibitions were lost as they all stretched out on a beach and applied their suntan oil and swotted away the flies before heading away on their motorbikes!

As the show continued hidden talents came out as participants raced horses, became a Russian ballerinas and a champion boxer.

Some of the highlights of the show came when several of the participants showed their affection for unsuspecting members of the

audience before waking up to accuse them of making ‘unwelcome advances’!

The audience seemed to really enjoy the show and showed their appreciation with further donations at the end of the night.

The organisers would like to thank all those who volunteered for their participation and the sponsorship they received, Dominic Quinn and the management of the Iveagh Movie Studios for all their help and support behind the scenes the show would not have been possible without all their efforts.
