Stress Clinic, an entertainment project is set to kick off on November 29 at the Uganda Manufacturers Association base in Lugogo, some 4km from Kampala City Centre, the organizers said on Monday.
According to Paul Ampurire, the official spokesperson for Stress Clinic, Winnie Nwagi and Maddox Sematimba among others, will be entertaining the audience.
Paul Ampurire, the official spokesperson for Stress Clinic told journalists in Kampala that the new show will happen once every month, every Wednesday.
“Our aim is to showcase upcoming and new artists,” he said. Part of the other activities for the show are comedy and related entertainment activities.
Ampurire has for the last seven years been the spokesperson for Comedy Store, another entertainment/comedy show created and directed by Alex Muhangi. Ampurire said, Stress Clinic is not related to Comedy Store.
“When you work in a place for five years, you are supposed to leave. I did seven years at Comedy Store and I think it is time for me to leave,” he said when asked to clarify whether Stress Clinic was replacing Comedy Store.
He added that Stress Clinic project was his own creation during COVID-19 when he held some episodes at a hangout in Kamwokya to partly help Ugandans battle COVID-19-related stress.
This time around, Ampurire said, Stress Clinic will do more than what people see on the stage including touching livelihoods in different communities.
The Wednesday show goes for Shs20,000 for ordinary tickets, VIPs will pay Shs50, 000 and a table of four will part with Shs400,000, he said.
The project partners include; ReelSounds, Vigaras, Peno and ATS events.
