(Andre the Hilarious
Hypnotist)
Durban favourite Andre The Hilarious Hypnotist returns to UKZN’s
Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre for two weeks this August.
Durban's theatre calendar would not be complete without its yearly visit
of the Andre The Hilarious Hypnotist show.
Born in Durban, Andre's parents later moved up to Gauteng but he has always
considered himself a Durbanite at heart and the support he has received in
Durban over the years has been astronomical.
Andre's ever-popular show is a mixed bag of hypnosis, funny routines, a
unique brand of comedy and a very dry sense of humour. Combine all these
ingredients and audiences can expect a show guaranteed to have them in stitches
of laughter from beginning to end.
Andre believes that the success of the show is based on the fact that no
two shows are ever the same. What makes the show even better is that the
volunteers are friends and family which adds that touch of realism to the
evening’s event. The show relies firstly on the people who volunteer and then
even more on the reaction of these volunteers to his suggestions. And even
there, Andre has no shortage in suggestions, adding Superman, a crowing cow,
and a pas de deux to this year's mix
of the weird and wonderful. But Andre's show does not stop there. In his search
for the funniest volunteer in Durban, Andre will by public vote invite the
funniest volunteer from every show to his final performance in Durban, where the
winner will win a cash price and feature in Andre's new online Internet
Television show.
What started as an idea has now become a weekly programme as thousands
of people visit Andre's site to see just what the most creative person of the
season will be doing next. If you consider yourself a performer, exhibitionist
or would like to have a belly-aching laugh at your friends’ expense. then this
is the show for you. Andre's show is family friendly and although Andre never
knows what the volunteers might say or do, he promises to keep it clean enough
for your mother-in-law to participate in the evening’s performance.
