Jo'burg comedy pick: September 30 2011

Stand-up comedian John Vlismas is back with a one-man show titled One Dark Night.

The comedy mogul—he owns a company called Whacked Entertainment Management, which, among other things, supplies “tailored stand-up comedy to corporate South Africa”—will dish out the usual uncompromising humour that has endeared him to South Africans.

On for only one night, Vlismas will say the stuff we do not say at dinner in polite company—the things that normally get people dragged to the Equality Court.

Lyric Theatre, Gold Reef City Casino, 14 Great Northern Parkway, Ormonde. October 1 at 8:30pm. Book at Computicket.
