COMEDIAN and presenter Ruby Wax will be visiting Chelmsford Civic Theatre next month with her show Sane New World.

Based on her bestselling book Sane New World: Taming the Mind, which was published to worldwide acclaim in 2013, Ruby’s show explores the brain and mind, with a dash of her signature humour on Tuesday, September 8 at 7.45pm.

She said: “We are not equipped for this century, it’s too hard, too fast, and too full of fear; we just don’t have the bandwidth.

“Our brains can’t take so much information in a world where we’re bombarded by bad news and force-fed information.

“I can just about take in the weather then I’m exhausted. You open a newspaper, everyone’s dead.

“We’re only supposed to know what our neighbour is up to; if the woman next door to you is having sex with the man next door to her we need to know; but four doors down and it’s none of our business.”
