Conference Entertainment

Recently I had the chance to work with a conference planner. They had a very full schedule with heavy topics and were concerned about their attendees. Information overload was a real possibility. The problem was how to keep their people engaged, energized and open to the speakers.

Conference entertainment can be utilized to lift people out of a catonic state and offer the mind a simple diversion that helps it recharge. Comedy not only reduces the stress of the day, but leaves attendees with wonderful memories of the conference.

By offering short sets throughout the day, attendees were constantly being surprised with short breaks. They soon found the mood lightened immediately upon the appearance of a puppet. The segments also allowed a comical recap of the information they had just heard. In the follow up surveys, many said that helped reinforce the workshops.

If you want to make your conference stand out - contact me to discuss your conference entertainment! If my act isn't a fit for your needs, I am happy to direct you to a professional conference entertainer that would be!
