A show called Hyprov is coming to the Effingham Performance Center on February 8th. The show combines improv comedy with hypnosis. 

Colin Mochrie, formerly of the improvisation television show Whose Line Is It Anyway? is starring in the show. He explained in more detail what to expect.  

The purpose of the hypnosis differs from that of a regular hypnotist show. Mochrie explains that by hypnotizing the members of the audience, it allows them to freely improvise without nagging self-conscious thoughts. 

For tickets to the February 8th show, you can call Effingham Performance Center at 540-2788. Mochrie appeared as a guest on the Genuine Country 94.3 WMKR morning show.
