Following the wild success of the inaugural first year, the mother of
all comedy festivals, the Mother City Comedy Festival returns by
popular demand to the Baxter Studio Theatre from 11 to 29 February.
With more than 45 comedians performing in 40 shows over three weeks,
it’s even bigger and better than ever! Produced by SIV NGESI , in
collaboration with Taylor Made Productions, the Mother City Comedy
Festival celebrates stand-up comedy in all its forms, presenting a
full spectrum of different comedic styles. With two shows daily, and
three on weekends, the Festival will once again get audiences up close
and personal with their favourite comedians while introducing them to
some of the country’s most exciting upcoming talents. Comedy-lovers
are spoilt for choice during this fabulous festival of funniness.
“This year’s line-up features a diverse mix of performers from
stalwarts of the comedy industry such as Nik Rabinowitz, Joey Rasdien
and The Goliaths to rising stars such as Chantal Jax and Kate
Pinchuck,” says co-producer Stuart Taylor. “We’ve also extended
the styles of comedy to include Afrikaans and Vernac shows, musical
comedy with the Brothers Streep, live sketch comedy with online star
