The Market Theatre is set to present a comedy and music extravaganza between 13 November and 9 December to celebrate this year’s festive season. Organisers have stated that in what is set to be four weeks of comedy and live music, the arts venue will start the period with a series of live performances. “These will consist of music, the universal language that speaks to everyone; and comedy, the tonic that allows us to see the lighter side life. What will make the event so special is the unique up-close-and-personal experience that Gautengers will enjoy with their favourite artists in the intimacy of the Main Theatre.” The event will include a line-up of leading South African musicians and performers. They will include Lira, Thandiswa Mazwai, Zahara, Zakes Bantwini, Oliver Mtukudzi, Ringo Madlingozi, Trompies and many more. Top South African comedians at the event will include Mark Banks, Allan Committee, Eugene Khoza and Trevor Gumbi. “They will have the audiences rolling in their aisles with their take on the state of the nation on Tuesdays and Wednesdays,” the organisers say.
