Andre The Hilarious Hypnotist makes his yearly return in 2026 with “Planned Pandemonium” After 35 years on stage, Andre is back on tour in 2026 with a bold new show: “Planned Pandemonium.” This year marks a clear shift in direction while staying true to the core idea that built his reputation. Andre sees himself as both a comedian and a hypnotist. With years of drama training behind him, his performance is built on timing, structure, and real connection with the audience. The goal is simple: a genuinely funny night out where people can sit back, relax, and actually enjoy themselves. The idea behind the show hasn’t changed: the audience becomes the show. Volunteers step into the spotlight and become the stars of the night. What’s different this year is the structure. The show features a wide range of new routines, mixed with the strongest material from past performances. For those who’ve followed Andre over the years, this isn’t a reinvention. It’s a refinement. A consolidation. It combines what worked, what evolved, and what still delivers. The result is a fast-paced, unpredictable experience based on moments tested in front of real audiences. No two performances are identical. Each show depends entirely on who’s in the room. Their personalities shape what happens on stage. The show is designed with a family audience in mind. However, only people aged 16 and older can volunteer to come on stage. Participation is always voluntary. No one is pushed, pressured, or singled out against their will. Andre is strict about this. Everyone who steps on stage does so because they genuinely want to. While many people come hoping to determine whether hypnosis is “real,” Andre doesn’t try to persuade anyone of anything. Instead, he asks the audience to relax, suspend disbelief for a while, and simply enjoy the experience. After the show, the question remains theirs to answer: were the volunteers truly hypnotised, or was something else at play? Skepticism is normal—and welcome. Andre addresses it openly. He also makes one thing very clear: in 35 years, he has never paid anyone to take part in a show. That’s not changing now. “Planned Pandemonium” is the one show where the audience doesn’t just watch the action; many become part of it, even if only for one evening. Andre wishes to emphasise that, although his show is not specifically aimed at one language, he recognises that we live in a very diverse country. Therefore, the show is structured so that both languages — Afrikaans and English — are included throughout the entire performance. DOORS OPEN AT 4PM, SHOW STARTS AT 5PM NB!
