The hilarious and award-winning stand-up comedian recently debuted the show at the Golden Arrow Studio Theatre to a sold out run.
“The Golden Arrow Studio run exceeded all my expectations. It was so lekker that the Baxter has invited me back to do another run of the show in October at the Main theatre, which is any comedian on my level’s dream. Get tickets for
Second Language soon, you don’t want to be that person who has to watch the show on DVD because you didn’t get tickets. Did I mention that we’re shooting a DVD?” says Bezuidenhout.
This talented youngster brings his wild ‘fro’ to the stage as he explores his conservative upbringing in Kempton Park (Johannesburg) with his current liberal outlook on life.
Bezuidenhout is one of South Africa’s best young comedians and has genuinely made an impact in the comedy world. In the few short years that he has been on the comedy scene, he has won two
Comics Choice Awards and has opened for Trevor Noah.
Apart from his
Comics Choice Awards, he is the 2012 winner of the Cape Town Graça Comedy Showdown; has performed at Blacks Only multiple times; the full run of
Jive Cape Town Funny Festival in 2014; took part in Trevor Noah’s NationWILD Tour in 2014 and 2015; and opened for Noah in 2015. He also received the
KKNK Kanna Award for
Best Up and Coming Artist in 2015 and recorded his own Comedy Central Special in the same year.
Tickets for
Second Language, on at the Baxter Theatre from Thursday, 20 to Saturday, 22 October, cost R100 and can be purchased through
