Come laugh out loud
COMEDIAN AND FRIENDS WILL TICKLE YOUR FUNNY BONE Heavyweights such as Gola and Goliath will share the stage.
Research has proven that friends help us live longer and healthier lives; they help to counter stress and improve our general happiness and mood. Which is why you cannot miss Riaad Moosa & Friends at Emperors Palace on Saturday.
Joining Moosa for a top-notch night of entertainment are his friends – and some of South Africa’s biggest comedy heavyweights – Jason Goliath, Joey Rasdien, Kagiso Mokgadi, Loyiso Gola, Marc Lottering, Schalk Bezuidenhout, Shimmy Isaacs and Simmi Areff, with a special guest appearance by Morgan Beatbox.
With this royal flush of comedy giants, it is guaranteed to be funny.
As an award-winning comedian, actor, writer and presenter, Moosa is one of SA’s most popular funnymen – and he happens to be a medical doctor too.
Goliath is larger than life. His infectious energy and laugh has made him one of SA’s most sought-after comedians.
Rasdien is instantly recognisable. His endearing stage persona is intellectually absurd, physically hysterical and thoughtprovoking.
Affectionaly known as KG, Kagiso Mokgadi takes the audience on a unique journey with a glimpse behind the scenes into his life as a son of a sangoma and a nurse.
With a stack of awards, accolades and achievements under his belt, Gola is a comedic force not to be taken lightly. He is best known as the host, co-producer and writer of the Emmy-nominated satirical Late Night News with Loyiso news show Gola.
Hailing from Cape Town, Lottering is one of South Africa’s top comedians. He has been in the industry for more than 16 years.
Bezuidenhout is not your run-of-the-mill comedian. His refreshing approach to comedy explores his conservative upbringing and his liberal outlook on life.
The only female in the line-up, the award-winning Isaacs looks at her journey as a confused coloured woman who comes into contact with all sorts of cultural dilemmas.
Areff was rated one of the top up-andcoming comedians in the country. He started his career while completing his journalism degree. Areff’s witty tongue-in-cheek comedy has made a strong contender in the industry.
Get your prescription of laughter with Riaad Moosa & Friends on Saturday at Centre Court, Emperors Palace. The show is rated PG16. Tickets are available from R185 per person and can be booked through Computicket or at the Emperors Palace Box Office.
