Pharanoid Stand-up Comedy Show To Highlight The South African Experience

Cape Town comedian Ntobeko Ximba will make his debut one-man show, aptly named Pharanoid , at the Masambe Theatre at the Baxter Theatre Centre, from 27 February to 1 March, reports Cape town Etc .

Ximba won a Standard Bank Ovation Award at the National Arts Festival 2024 as part of the creative team behind 32 Lavender Close and in 2023 and 2024, he also performed as part of the trio stand-up show Proudly Problematic .

In addition, Ximba has performed at the Cape Town Comedy Club RIP, Cape Town Funny Festival and the famous Laugh Factory in Los Angeles, California.

Directed by visionary theatre-maker Andi Colombo, Pharanoid is the culmination of Ntobekos six years of stand-up comedy and a hilarious and tightly-orchestrated reflection on being South African from a silly yet thoughtful comedian.

Frankly, his work, as Cue Online put it, is sure to make you fall in love with dark humour.
