TENIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEE!

anyhow, engaging the audience is all bout presence. strut about like you own the place (cos for that 6-8 minutes you do).. Engage individual audience members. And presence! presence! presence!

banter, as we have just demonstrated is also relatively effective. i say relativelt, cos if you have a banter partner like tenille <glares> youve got shit all chance of success.
