Ruby Wax: finding the funny side

From Saturday Morning, 9:08 am on 8 March 2025

Following a sell-out West End run and UK tour, Ruby Wax's critically acclaimed show I'm Not As Well As I Thought I Was is coming to New Zealand in April. Based on her bestselling book, Ruby shares her deeply personal journey trying everything she can to help manage her mental health and subsequent breakdown.  

With decades spent in comedy and television, Ruby uses her trademark wit and vulnerability to dismantle stereotypes around mental health and happiness in her show.

Ruby holds an Oxford University Masters in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy and was awarded an OBE for her services to mental health.
