Here are answers to some frequently asked questions...

How much does it cost?
All of Tim Hall's performances and presentations are customized for the event. No two events are exactly the same and there are several fee variables (See Below). Generally, for local events, fees are by the half hour, hour, half-day or for a full-day. For non-local events: There will be a performance fee + standard travel fees (Transportation, lodging, etc.)

Variables in fees include:

If you would like pricing for your event, Please provide, via telephone or email, the following information: 1) Type of entertainment or program that you are interested in. 2) What type of event are you having? 3) The date and time of your event. 4) The size of your audience. 5) The location of your event. 6) The length of program desired.

What size audiences can you entertain?
For strolling, roving and walk around magical and mind reading entertainment, Tim can entertain small groups of people to thousands of people. Because Tim is mingling with the crowd and only performing to small groups of people for short periods of times there is no limit to how many people can be in the audience. Stand up stage shows – If the audience is seated at tables, then up to about 300 people. If the audience is seated in a theatre or theatre setting, Tim can entertain audiences, upwards to 1200 people.

If the entertainer performs strolling roving walk around entertainment will he get to every person?
For strolling events, Tim is hired for a specific time period. He will entertain as many people as possible in the time frame that he is hired for. If you have a large audience, Tim may not get to perform for everyone. If you have a really large audience, Tim can provide additional magicians and entertainers. What kind of room set up do we need for the stage performances? If the audience size is 100 or more people, Tim should have a riser or a stage. If no riser or stage is available, it is not the ideal situation, but Tim can work from the floor. The stage should be up against a wall. Guests should be seated in front of the stage, not to the sides or behind the stage area. Also watch out for those huge annoying pillars right in the middle of some rooms. Please take into consideration your guests so they don't get stuck behind one of these support pillars and miss out on seeing the performance.

Do we need to provide audio for the stage show?
It depends, for most events Tim will provide the PA system and microphones. These events are usually small to large local events. If the audience size is going to be really large, or the venue is super noisy or Tim has to travel, via airplane or train, to the performance, he may require the client to provide the PA system.

Can Tim Hall perform while people are eating?
Other than background music, we do not recommend any entertainment or speaking programs while people are eating. It is common knowledge, that when people are eating, there are many distractions in the room; the guests are focused on their food and the conversations around them.

Before or after the meal is the best time for Tim’s performances.
Tim has performed at thousands of events and he has found that people enjoy his programs, or any entertainment/speaking programs for that matter, much more when they are not eating and they can fully concentrate on the entertainment program or the speaker.

Will Tim’s performance embarrass or offend anyone?
Tim is proud to say that absolutely NO ONE will be embarrassed in any way. We have all heard many horror stories of how other entertainers have completely offended guests in the audience with off color jokes and remarks. Tim’s entertainment programs are clean, non-controversial and never rely on entertaining people by making fun or laughing at individual people. Tim likes to make his performances a fun ride for everyone and a respite from the daily stresses of everyday life. Tim’s performance motto, “We will all laugh and have fun together as a group”.

Can our company executive or a key person be a part of the performance?
Of course! Nothing delights audiences more then seeing one of "their own" on stage. Tim, will work with you to include an illusion that your key person can participate in that is appropriate for the occasion.
