South Africans are known across the globe for their cultural diversity and unique sense of humour.
Who doesn’t enjoy ‘n Bietjie Afrikaans, a little English and sommer ‘n klomp laughs?
That’s what comedy fans can expect on July 27 at Blackrock Casino, when three of SA’s funniest bi-lingual comedians come together for a night of hilarities.

Alfred Adriaan is a hilariously funny and relatable comedian, with his shows deeply rooted in everyday life. With his comedy based on reality, he is able to connect with people from different age groups and backgrounds.

Rob van Vuuren is a comedy legend in South Africa, best known for his role as Twakkie in the SABC2 comedy series The Most Amazing Show, which aired from 2006 to 2007.
Appearing in numerous stage productions and having written, produced and starred in both one-man and two-man shows, Rob needs no introduction to the entertainment industry.
He has even received various award nominations, one of these being the Fleur Du Cap Nomination for Best Supporting Actor in Beauty Queen of Leenan.
