ROB VAN VUUREN LIVE is the latest award-winning stand-up comedy show written and performed by Rob van Vuuren who was, this year, once again identified by the Mail and Guardian as one of the 200 young South Africans you should take out to lunch. So yes he will accept free lunches.

2011 also saw Rob awarded the Breakthrough Act Award at the inaugural Comics Choice Award and following the runaway success of the premiere of ROB VAN VUUREN LIVE at the National Arts Festival the show walked away with the coveted Standard Bank Ovation Award for Comedy. Unfortunately there was no free lunch!

ROB VAN VUUREN LIVE is an irreverent, honest and above all sidesplittingly funny perspective on many of Rob's favourite subjects which range from dogs, flies and Jehovah's Witnesses to becoming a dad, adoption and giant mutant toenails.

This is a rare opportunity for Cape Town audiences to watch the guy who shot to fame as the short half of the cult comedy due Corne and Twakkie of the Most Amazing Show (the co-host of Crazy Games and SA's Got Talent and the ou who Shucksed Shuster) do what he does best ... make you laugh!
We regret there will be no free lunches!

NDUMISO LINDI
THREE SHOWS ONLY - SUNDAY 28th to TUESDAY 30th AUGUST 2011 @ 20h30
Tickets R85 per person, Students R65, groups of 10 or more R75

Known for his trademark hat, funky urban stylish look and brilliant impersonations of the Madiba Jive, Ndumiso Lindi is regarded as one of South Africa's top black comedians. An entertainer with flair, Ndumiso delves into honest observations of everyday life in South Africa; the diversity of South African cultures; as well as the uniqueness of black people. Painting the nation from a young black man's point of view, this talented man is well on his way to the top!

After moving to Cape Town from Zwelitsha, a small township next to KingWilliam's Town in the Eastern Cape where he was born and raised, Ndumiso had never imagined that a national diploma in design at the Cape Technikon would be the start of a whole new creative world. Inspired by his family and the likes of Eddie Murphy and Bill Cosby, his first big break came in 2004 during the Vodacom Comedy Campus Tour, where Ndumiso took his act to the stage for 3 minutes! It was these 3 minutes that got Ndumiso into the Comedy AllStars Collective, performing at a host of city venues, including the celebrated Independent Armchair Theatre in Cape Town. It was at this point that many could see the rising of this young talented comedian.

In 2004 Ndumiso won Best Newcomer in the Red Bull Comedy AllStars Comedy Challenge. Ndumiso then started touring South Africa and has performed at the Barnyard Theatres in Durban, Pretoria and Johannesburg. He has shared the stage with local award winning comedy gurus such as Kurt Schoonraad, Mel Miller, Riaad Moosa, Stuart Taylor, Dave Levinsohn, Cokey Falkow, Marc Lottering and David Kau.

At the Blacks Only Comedy shows in Johannesburg, he received countless ovations and praise from the media. He went on to share the stage with the best in the business at the Heavyweights Comedy Jam, headlining in both the Vodacom Comedy Campus tour and Vodacom Funny Festival. He has also made his mark in corporate events and has wowed the rock audience when he headlined the comedy section at the rock festival - Rocking the Daisies.

Most recently Ndumiso has performed at the 46664 It's No Joke Comedy show and rocking NIgeria twice. He has performed at all big comedy festivals in South Africa in the past two years and will shortly headline with the Nando's Comedy Festival.

Ndumiso believes in putting his heart and mind into everything he loves doing the most. Clear the way because Ndumiso Lindi is about to take centre stage!
