Sane New World: the show, the film
|
I toured my Sane New World show all across the world, and it was recorded live in London in 2016. That recording is now available for you - you can watch my show wherever and whenever you like.
Our minds can send us mad as our internal critics play on a permanent loop tape. My journey through depression has taken me from The Priory through to an MA from Oxford University in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy. This show helps us all understand why we sabotage our sanity, how our brains work and how we can rewire our thinking to find calm in a frenetic world. Helping you become the master, not the slave, of your mind, this show is your route to saner living. Recorded live at the Arts Theatre in 2016 |
“Scalpel sharp comedy [that] explores the impact of the modern age on our sanity” Woman Magazine
“Ruby Wax’s Sane New World […]is aimed at showing us how to rewire our thinking to find calm in a frenetic world and how to become the master, not the slave, of our own minds” Western Gazette
“Presented in her own inimitable style, Sane New World sets out to give a tour of the brain and how to tame it, using Wax's knowledge from the Master's Degree she gained from Oxford University in 2013 in mindfulness-based cognitive therapy” RAF Magazine
“Who knew? The Anglo-American comedian doesn't just deliver excellent jokes about hippies while being surrounded by hippies, she also trains you in mindfulness. After Wax gave us a rendition of her one woman show, Sane New World, in Speaker's Forum in the Green Fields, she invited us all to focus the mind and think about our breathing. Very calming she was too” The Telegraph
“Wax appeared as the friendly face of neuroscience – her zany stage persona belying the gifted and insightful academic beneath. The show, interspersed with fun graphics and videos, was both profoundly interesting and hopeful; at times the theatre was silent as the crowd hung on each of her shrewd observations” Wirral Globe
“In Sane New World, Wax, who gained her masters at Oxford University in mindfulness based cognitive therapy, places this knowledge next to real life scenarios, making the complicated neurological actions of the brain understandable and better still relatable”
