Trending Comics is a spin-off of the Johannesburg International Comedy Festival (JICF). The third edition of JICF will be held in March 2018. Trending Comics is aimed at giving the broader South African audience a taste and feel of the festival.
The tour starts at the Cape Town Comedy Club on 20-21 October 2017, followed by the 031 Comedy Club in Durban on 28-29 October 2017, and will conclude at The Goliath Comedy Club in Johannesburg on 3-4 November 2017.
Festival director Takunda Bimha says, “We are incredibly excited to be presenting a tour that consists of the comedians who are not only ‘trending’ right now but also represent the bright future of South African comedy. There has also been an emergence of world-class comedy clubs all over the country and we are excited to be taking comedy directly to the people at the very epicentre of where comedy is originated, crafted and perfected.”
