Simuka Comedy to debut 'Almost All Divas Comedy Night'

It was about (DAMN!) time the Comedy scene provided a platform for some Killer Comediennes! As you might already know we are within the
‘16 Days of Activism Against Gender Based Violence’.

To commemorate that Simuka Comedy is throwing an
‘Almost All Divas Comedy Night’ to showcase some femme Comedy Talent!
Awesome Right?!
Finally we get to hear what not just women but what ‘Funny’ women have to say!
It should be a blast and it sucks that I won’t be able to make it (Radio duties & what not)!
Performing tomorrow night are Comediennes in training Kessia Masona who will also sing a little something, Wadzanai Chiuriri better known as Black Pearl - an acclaimed poet and *Rubs Hands together* a SACRIFICIAL male comedian.
I really like the ‘sacrificial’ part; do you think there will be any chanting involved??
(Not that I’m into that type of stuff *clears throat*)
There will be an Open Mic Platform for the ladies interested in the funny business and also guys in drag! (I just lied about that part!)
It is clear the gentlemen from Simuka Comedy have finally accepted the inarguable fact that GIRLS DO RUN THE WORLD!
I meant DIVAS run the world!!
And that’s not all as of the 3rd of December (Tomorrow) Simuka Comedy will be hosting comedy nights at the Book CafĂ© every Tuesday. The first Tuesdays there will be another dose of ALMOST All Divas Comedy Night then Open Mic Comedy will be on the second Tuesday of the month and ImprovComedy on the third Tuesday.

Funny Threesome At 7ArtsTheatre!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
All roads lead to 7Arts Theatre tonight for a Comedy threesome... (ehem) , I meant ‘A Triple Comedy Line Up’  featuring Carl Joshua Ncube flanked by South African Laughter giants Chris Forrest and Mark Banks! Doors open at 1830hrs for this ‘one-nighter’ with ample time for your ‘African time’ antics cause the show begins at 1930hrs. Tickets were limited and are now nearly sold out, so you might want to make a rush for yours and eh...your plus one also..Maybe?!
  Here’s a quick background on these kickass comedians:
Mark Banks
Mark has over 20 years in the art of making people LOL with that much time under his belt! (Not necessarily literal) he proudly labels himself “as old as theatre”. His latest offering is a one-man show, titled “Banksrupt”, Mark Banks is one of the most recognized and respected comedians of his time.
In over, Mark boasts at least one new one-man show each year, of which he writes and performs all the material himself in that case we’re honoured to have a looksie!
 
Chris Forrest
More recently known for his one man show “The Flip Side”, appearance on South Africa’s “The Heavyweight Comedy Jam” Chris Forrest has been in the funny business for over 10 years. Chris is said to speak slowly but to think fast, he is . forWe love a guy who’s quick on the draw... especially if he acts a fool whiles he’s at it! 
Carl Joshua Ncube
Saving the best last, Carl is currently the BIGGEST Zimbabwean Stand Up Comedian (in more ways than one the guy is creepy tall...well I’m short so...) Carl is currently on a quest to take his version of Zimbabwe to the world through obscenely good looking food (I say this because I’ve only seen photos) / cooking skills, marathon running or through the simple trade of getting people to wet themselves...with laughter. #TSKC
