Mama’s boy makes mama proud

- Wellington Makwakwa

In a comedy set dedicated to his mother, comedian Mangaliso Mhlongo left Zululander­s in stitches during his one-man show Mama’s Boy at the University of Zululand in KwaDlangez­wa on Saturday.

From talking about relationsh­ips, and crazy entertainm­ent stories to jokes about the church, the rip-roaring session left the audience begging for more.

The show also featured comedians Gqonqa and Simphiwe Shembe, as well as some music items.

Over the past three years Mangaliso has climbed the entertainm­ent ladder and opened for well known acts such as Savanna man Barry Hilton, Sifiso Nene and Siyanda Maphumulo.
