About the act: Improv at Harrah’s features a dynamic format where twenty audience volunteers are hypnotized and guided through improvised scenes by a rotating host, often with Colin Mochrie joining for spikes of high-energy comedy. The lead hypnotist, Asad Mecci, brings hypnotic techniques to the stage, creating moments that blend suggestion, spontaneity, and humor. HYPROV earned a nomination for Best Unique Theatrical Experience at the 2023 Off Broadway Alliance Awards, underscoring its innovative appeal. In 2024 and beyond, HYPROV continued touring across the United States and Canada with a schedule that includes major cities and regional stops. For fans of clever, interactive performance, HYPROV offers a memorable night that’s different every show.
Discography highlights related to the act: Asad Mecci released An Exploration of Hypnotic Sound (with Rufus Wainwright) in 2024 on Rialto Records, featuring hypnotic vocal techniques and original music.
