ANDRE THE HILARIOUS HYPNOTIST

-

There’s no better way to chase away the January “back to work” blues than by enjoying one of South Africa’s funniest entertaine­rs, Andre The Hilarious Hypnotist, who returns for a limited season to Montecasin­o’s Studio Theatre from Friday, January 19 to Sunday, February 25.

Andre celebrates a record-breaking 25 years on stage as South Africa’s very own convener of the strange, the weird and the wonderful.

Andre discovered his hypnotic calling after watching a performanc­e of the late Max Collie.

Having studied drama and teaching, and with a background in psychology, Andre immediatel­y became hooked at the promise of being able to entertain people with his hypnotic skills.

And he has been doing that for the past 25 years.

No two shows are the same as the strength of his performanc­es lies in the fact that every night’s volunteers are different, leading to a diverse action-packed show.

Not even Andre knows what to expect when he steps up on stage.

Andre does, however, promise not to disappoint and the audience can expect two hours of side-splitting hilarious hypnotic entertainm­ent from the time Andre takes to the stage.

At the end of the day, the strength of the show lies in the volunteers of the evening who are brave enough to come up on stage.

Their participat­ion makes Andre’s show such a feel-good, funny, evening’s entertainm­ent.

It’s truly the only show in the country that can claim that it makes stars of your friends and family.

Andre The Hilarious Hypnotist runs from January 19 to February 25 at The Studio Theatre at Montecasin­o.
