EMPERORS Palace presents Proudly Coloured Comedy for the whole family.
Proudly Coloured Comedy – “BrainOu BrainOu” returns to Emperors Palace on Saturday, October 29, with another stellar line-up of ”proudly coloured” comedians.
Apt timing too, with the hashtag #coloureds recently trending on Twitter, as South Africans tried to claim their piece of Wayde van Niekerk’s historic 400m Olympic victory.
The well-known comedy series adds colour to the stage at the Theatre of Marcellus, with the legendary Kurt Schoonraad, Joey Rasdien, Roni Modimola, Neil Green, Farhan Esat, Mel Jones and Andrew Hughes. A community largely plagued by stereotypes, these guys are not afraid to tell it like it is.
For one night only, these comedians will share insights from a uniquely coloured perspective, taking diverse audiences on a hilarious journey of what it actually means to be a coloured in South Africa.
The show is an opportunity to re-write coloured history and entertainment in South Africa, showcasing a proudly coloured nation through a series of carefully crafted comedic narratives.
“No swearing comedy”, the show promises loads of family friendly fun and endless bouts of laughter.
Taking the lead as host for the night is Kurt Schoonraad, one of South Africa’s most recognised stand-up comedians. Hailing from Mitchell’s Plain, which was highly influential in developing his sense of humour, Schoonraad is well-versed in all things “coloured”.
No stranger to the comedic industry, colourful personality – and headliner for the night – Joey Rasdien has earned the title of “The Thinking Man’s Comedian” – his comedy is thought-provoking and intellectual. A delight to watch, Rasdien never disappoints.
Catch them at 20:00 on October 29.
