Comedian and mental health advocate Ruby Wax is in town this week with a one-woman show called "Sane New World." It’s based on her book, of the same title, and uses humor to explore the way our mind can sabotage our sanity. Ruby has struggled with depression and holds a degree in cognitive therapy from Oxford University. WGBH News Arts Editor Jared Bowen sat down with her this week and asked how she got started down this path. Ruby Wax’s one-woman show runs through Sunday at the OBERON theater in Cambridge.
