<\/a><\/p>\nOn 13 April, Ruby Wax \u2013 comedian, writer, mental health campaigner \u2013 will bring her one-woman show RUBY WAX: SANE NEW WORLD-THE TOUR to Theatre at The Mill. Ruby has based this new show on her No. 1 bestselling book Sane New World: Taming the Mind<\/em>, which has enjoyed worldwide success since publication in 2013.<\/p>\n RUBY WAX: SANE NEW WORLD-THE TOUR will help us understand why we sabotage our own sanity and provides a manual on how to survive the 21st century, using Ruby\u2019s knowledge from her recent Masters Degree in mindfulness-based cognitive therapy at Oxford University spiked with comedy.<\/p>\n Why we need a \u2018manual\u2019\u2026<\/p>\n Ruby comments: \u201cWe are not equipped for this century, it\u2019s too hard, too fast, and too full of fear; we just don\u2019t have the bandwidth. Our brains can\u2019t take so much information in a world where we\u2019re bombarded by bad news and force-fed information. I can just about take in the weather then I\u2019m exhausted. You open a newspaper, everyone\u2019s dead. We\u2019re 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\u2019s none of our business.\u201d<\/p>\n Using her signature humour, Ruby gives a tour of the brain and how to tame it: \u201cWe know so much about how the world works – but so little about our how our own minds work.\u00a0 It\u2019s like having a Ferrari on top of your head but no one gave you the keys.\u201d<\/p>\n www.rubywax.net\/sane-new-world-tour<\/a><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n About Ruby Wax<\/strong><\/p>\n Arriving in Britain from the United States in 1977, Ruby Wax began her acting career with the Royal Shakespeare Company.\u00a0 She went on to write and perform in her own hugely popular television programmes for the BBC and Channel 4 and was Script Editor on all series\u2019 of Absolutely Fabulous<\/em>.\u00a0 Ruby has since obtained a Masters Degree in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy from Oxford University and has spoken at TED Global.\u00a0 She has become a respected campaigner for mental illness in the UK.<\/p>\n RUBY WAX: SANE NEW WORLD tours to Theatre at The Mill on Sunday 13 April.
