Connecting With Your Audience - Part One - Introduction

Connecting With Your Audience - Introduction

As performers it is very important to connect with performance.  If you don't connect,  you will probably be out of business in the near future.

Connecting with your audience in the way that is you.  Don't copy someone else...be you!  Even if you purchase a routine and use the routine given in the package be sure to make it your own. Tweak it to fit your personality and passion.

In the next few posts on The Thinking Magician I'm going to be chewing on using all five senses to connect with the audience. Please feel free to add your suggestions and comments.

Tomorrow's post will start with number one then go down the list. I've given some basic ideas that I will be looking at in each area to help get your thinking going.

  1. Sight-visual, sets, costumes, move around
  2. Touch-interactive, textural, as they walk into area, those that help you on stage
  3. Smell - scents, spark their imagination of things smelled in the past, facial expressions
  4. Sounds - loud, quiet, creepy, music, sound effects
  5. Taste - taste...our even give the persception of taste as you describe something

Please feel free to leave your comments. 


Have a great day,

    The performer should perform with respect to the audience likeness. The performers should have the capability to take the audience in their hands. The dressing style and your personality are always be noted by the audience. So connecting with your audience will increase the quality of your performance. You can connect your audience with your senses. The eye contact with all the audience is very important. This is a simple technique to capture all the audience attraction.
