Hypnotist Gary Conrad’s appearances this weekend at The Comedy Catch, 1400 Market St., coincide with the MainX24 festival on Saturday, Dec. 2, so he’s adding an additional family-friendly matinee to the festival’s fun.

Thursday and Sunday, Nov. 30 and Dec. 3, Conrad performs at 7:30 p.m., when tickets are $12. Friday’s shows are 7:30 and 10 p.m., and tickets are $17.

Saturday, Conrad will present the family-friendly show at 4 p.m. with a special ticket rate of $5 for all ages. Two more MainX24 shows are set for 7:30 and 10 p.m., when tickets are $17. The 10 p.m. is an adults-only show with humor for mature audiences.

Conrad selects volunteers from his audience to put to sleep. Don’t think you are susceptible to hypnosis? Try it.

Each show is a different, exciting experience for the audience as well as his volunteers.
