2013
for Zim Comic enthusiasts was quite exciting. Courtesy of Simuka, Zim Comedy
saw the rise of a number of new comedians; among which includes a group of
female comics. Comedy workshops, ImprovComedy and #AlmostALLDivas were among
the year’s special projects, as well as a comedy festival that closed off 2013.
2014 is going to be even more out of this world as Simuka now goes beyond the
country’s borders to do a Comedy Club tour in South Africa.
But
rewinding to this Thursday night on the 16th of January, Simuka
Comedy presents the first official comedy night of 2014 at the Book Café. The
comedians are to begin the year with a recap of 2013, a speculation of 2014
possibilities, elections, sex tapes, prophets; apparently no subject is taboo.
The
line up is made up of Doc Vikela, Simba The Comic King and a new professional
comedian – Gift the Cracker, plus a host of new talent on the open mic. This is
quite the show we are going to have. I would say it’s a battle of sorts. Two
big names, who also happen to best friends going toe on toe against each other.
Who is going to show the other who the king of the roost is? Is it going to be
the Comic King? Or is it going to be the Doc.
Or
maybe it will be neither. Perhaps Gift the Cracker will show them what the underdogs
are made of and crack up the whole showJ. Asked
about what we can expect from him, Gift says, “Even pets will laugh at what’s
in store for their masters”. “Simuka tiende kuShow” he says.
The
show starts at 8pm sharp and admission is $5.
PS
If you know what’s good for you, don’t miss this show!!!
