The Citizen (Gauteng)

Comedy duo going up a notch

-

Tumi Morake and Ndumiso Lindi, pictured, are taking their rib-cracking, hilarious new stand-up show, Married… But Not To Each Other around Southern Africa.

Following successful shows in Pretoria, Cape Town, Johannesbu­rg, Mafikeng and Botswana, new dates have been added in Port Elizabeth, Krugersdor­p, Durban, Secunda and Nelspruit.

While travelling together on a comedy adventure, Lindi and Morake were asked by a customs official: “Are you married?” and Lindi quickly replied: “Yes, but not to each other.”

And thus, began the comical journey for this wife and husband of other people.

The show is a hilarious take on the rules and regulation­s of marriage and the pothole-laced roads the sexes have to navigate. It’s not just about marriage. It’s about the world that these marriages have to survive in.

Lindi, otherwise known as Roosta, effortless­ly blends new-age style with oldschool traditions. His deep voice, soul-warming smile, booming laughter, original content and seamless delivery makes for a comedy act that is outstandin­g and soulfully South African.

With a comedy career spanning over 11 years outstandin­g credential­s, Morake continues to be a formidable force in the comedy industry. Her edgy and unpredicta­ble brand of humour has wowed audiences around the globe. – Citizen reporter
