We interrupt your regularly scheduled broadcast for this special bulletin.
As performers, we place ourselves in a very unique position. We set ourselves up in a situation where people will generally pay attention to us and what we have to say. Now think about what we fill their heads with. We can actually take the time to say something poignant, but we usually just make lame jokes about being naked and wearing watches. (Don't ask)
Think about this... why not use that time to sneak in a few lines about something YOU believe in. There are many performers who "Sneak" their messages into their shows. Non-magi and mages alike. The message can be positive or maybe just thought provoking. Perhaps it's subconscious and hits them after the show is over.
The point is you have the opportunity to stand up for what you believe and a great medium to do so. Don't let the chance pass you by to voice your opinion. You have a captive audience after all. Of course if your ideas are too "Left field" for the populace at large, you can run into resistance. If your message is about kitty porn, I'd maybe re-think your approach. No one wants to hear about that... and those who do, prolly won't be watching magic shows. Thaz what the internet is for.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled broadcast.. already in progress.
Bizzaro.
