Sean Hughes - Mumbo Jumbo
The multi award winning comedian is back with a new show.
Throughout his life he has been battling to stay on the right side of sanity. This is because in middle age he has realised that the two sides of his brain are in constant conflict. There is common sense against mumbo jumbo and mumbo jumbo seems to have the upper hand.
The show consists of stories including being serenaded at the break of dawn by Robert Smith, trekking mountain gorillas in Rwanda and coming to the conclusion that he will never have a proper conversation with his dear mum. There will be a few poems and a 3-minute musical about ageing too.
'Hughes swiftly and seamlessly alternates between pathos and gags' ★★★★ The List
'For quick laughs look elsewhere, but for something that leaves more of an impression. Hughes is your man' ★★★★ Chortle
'At his funniest and most profound' ★★★★★ The Sunday Herald
