Get ready to fly with captain Lottering
JOBURG - Fresh from a run at the Soho Theatre in London earlier this year, Marc Lottering brings his new hilarious one-man show to Joburg.
Titled This is Captain Lottering Speaking, the show is on stage at Pieter Toerien’s Montecasino Theatre from 15 October to 9 November.
Aside from Lottering’s side-splitting stand-up comedy, the show will also feature the hugely popular characters that have made this comedian a household name in South Africa.
Aunty Merle finds herself at the airport departures hall armed with a freshly baked tart for her friend Rose Kannemeyer, who is off to visit family in Port Elizabeth. Pop idol wannabe Galatia Geduldt is on a plane, and finally off to Joburg to record her first demo after meeting a producer in a take-away in the Bo-Kaap. Pastor Brandon is taking a short break from the church, and leaving for the United States of America after a tabloid newspaper published a story about him and his ‘laying on of hands” approach as witnessed in a parked car at Sunrise Circle in Muizenberg. Smiley the taxi gaatjie and cashier Colleen also make an appearance.
