Ruby Wax — Absolutely Famous

Ruby Wax presents Absolutely Famous, a stand-up comedy show staged at Queen's Theatre in Hornchurch. It is a live evening of comedy with a single performer in front of the audience.

Absolutely Famous is a stand-up and comedy show led by Ruby Wax, who is both the performer and the name on the billing. Stand-up is a solo, spoken form: the evening is built around one comedian talking directly to the audience, with humour carried by the performer's delivery rather than by a plot or a cast of characters.

Queen's Theatre hosts concerts and shows in Hornchurch, and this production adds a comedy evening to that programme. The show is aimed at audiences who enjoy live stand-up in a theatre setting and want a comedy night built around one performer.

Ruby Wax is a comedian and writer, and Absolutely Famous is the title under which this comedy show is presented on this visit to Hornchurch. The show's format is stand-up, so it follows the rhythm of a comedy set from start to finish rather than a scripted play.
