It’s all Mumbo Jumbo

Multi award-winning comedian Sean Hughes is back in Buxton with his new show Mumbo Jumbo on Saturday 24 October at 7.30pm.

The comic said about his show ‘throughout my life I have been battling to stay on the right side of sanity. This is because in middle age I’ve realised that the two sides of my 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.

The funny man has received critical acclaim for his new work, Chortle, the specialist review website for comedians gave him four stars and said ‘for quick laughs look elsewhere, but for something that leaves more of an impression. Hughes is your man’.

Mumbo Jumbo takes place on Saturday 24 October at 7.30pm. Tickets are priced at £15 and discounts are available.
