South Africa (27 April 2024) – As Freedom Day dawns and the buzz of elections fills the atmosphere, South Africa braces itself for a jubilant celebration of 30 years of “democrazy.”

Comedy Central and Nando’s are teaming up for a unique extravaganza titled ‘DemoCrazy: A Roast of South Africa’, promising a blend of laughter, reflection, and perhaps a touch of the absurd.

Picture this: a gathering of the country’s comedic elite and special guests converging to deliver a rib-tickling critique of our beloved democracy. Leading the charge is none other than Kagiso Lediga, whose comedic genius is set to steer the ship towards an evening of uproarious entertainment and genuine introspection.

In ‘DemoCrazy: A Roast of South Africa’, Comedy Central and Nando’s are tapping into our nation’s knack for resilience and wit, crafting an event that celebrates our journey with a healthy dose of humour and heart. Against the backdrop of a nation defined by its highs and lows, this comedy showcase is more than just entertainment; it’s a testament to our ability to find joy in adversity and solidarity in shared experiences.

Dillon Khan, Vice President of Comedy Central, expresses his excitement about partnering with Nando’s, a brand that shares their commitment to embracing life’s comedic truths.

“Together, we’ll ignite the flames of laughter,” says Khan. “With Kagiso at the helm, we’re confident this show will capture the true essence of Mzansi.”

Speaking candidly, Kagiso Lediga of Diprente remarks, “I’m thrilled by this opportunity to poke fun at this extraordinary, complex, and utterly crazy country. South Africa is a comedic goldmine, and this show will be a celebration of that.”

Adding to the fervour, Nontobeko Sibiya from Nando’s shares her enthusiasm for the event, emphasizing the brand’s dedication to celebrating the quirks and triumphs of South Africa. “DemoCrazy: A Roast of South Africa promises to be a sidesplitting celebration of our nation’s idiosyncrasies.”

Mark your calendars for Wednesday, May 22nd, as ‘DemoCrazy: A Roast of South Africa’ unfolds live at The Lyric Theatre, Gold Reef City Casino. Limited tickets, starting from R150, are up for grabs through webtickets.co.za.

By daring to laugh at ourselves and embracing the chaos that defines us, ‘DemoCrazy’ aims to celebrate the indomitable spirit of South Africa. It’s a gentle reminder that even in our darkest hours, laughter has the power to unite us and illuminate the way forward.
