Comedy hypnotist Adrian Knight plays the Garage Theatre on Friday, 25 September 2026, at 8pm. Knight has been performing his hypnotist stage show for more than 25 years, and the format is built entirely around audience participation, so the show is different every night depending on who is willing to get up on stage.
The show is billed as fast-paced and interactive, with Knight pulling volunteers up from the audience and putting them through a run of comic scenarios once they are under hypnosis. It is the kind of act that works best with a willing crowd, so audience members who fancy taking part should sit somewhere Knight can see them rather than at the back. The format leans on storytelling and quick audience reactions rather than scripted stand-up material, which is what distinguishes a hypnotist show from a straight comedy night, and it tends to run a full evening once the volunteer segments get going. No age restriction was listed for this date, but hypnotist shows of this kind are generally aimed at an adult audience given the nature of the on-stage scenarios. Tickets run from EUR 18, with a higher tier available for better seating in the theatre.
The Garage Theatre is part of the Monaghan Education Campus on the Armagh Road, on the edge of Monaghan town, with its own on-site car park. It is a short drive from the town centre.
Monaghan town’s Diamond and Market Square have a good choice of bars and restaurants for a pre-show meal or a drink afterwards. There is more to see in Monaghan and across Co. Monaghan.
