(The popular entertainer returns to Durban
and Pietermaritzburg in August)
Is it a
Kangaroo, a Dinosaur or could it be Superman? No, it's Andre the Hilarious
Hypnotist and a group of volunteers from his audience acting in strange, weird
and wonderful ways.
Following
his sold-out season in 2012, Andre returns to Durban’s Elizabeth Sneddon
Theatre and the Hexagon in Pietermaritzburg as he brings more of his dry wit,
strange humour and a heap of new routines. He has selected some of the best
material he could find in order to ensure that his audience is provided with
two hours of side-splitting fun, laughter and stress-reducing entertainment.
With no
two shows ever being the same, not even Andre knows what to expect. If you have
not seen Andre's show before, where have you been? He became a household name
in the 1990's when his show became an instant hit across the country. Since
then he has performed in every theatre, city hall, town hall, school hall - and
places he prefers not to mention - filling venues to capacity.
Andre's
popularity soon led to his own television special, followed by a television
series and now his first book (only available at shows). His show has taken him
up Africa, across Australia and into countries few would venture - Zimbabwe
comes to mind. (Technically, hypnotising someone in Zimbabwe is a crime).
With
that, Andre returns to his place of birth – Durban - but he has more than just
a show up his sleeve. He is also going viral. With a vote from members of the
audience and the kind permission of his volunteers, Andre will take his show to
the streets and neighbourhoods of Durban creating candid camera mayhem
broadcast live to millions of viewers across the world.
Catch Andre the Hilarious Hypnotist at the
Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre from August 6 to 25. Performances from Tuesdays to
Saturdays at 19h30 (Sundays at 15h00). Andre then moves to the Hexagon Theatre
in Pietermaritzburg for a short season from August 27 to 31.

(R65.00 on presentation of student/pensioner card or for those under the age of
12) for both shows booked at Computicket on 0861 915 8000 or online at www.computicket.com
Andre would like to remind theatre-goers
that he will not drag, pull or in any way coerce audience members to take part
in the show.
