Durban comedy picks: February 24 2012

Life & Times is a succinct ­sobriquet of the new show by one of South Africa’s finest merchants of mirth.

With his sharp wit, unmistakable charm and thought-provoking comedy style, Loyiso Gola has been enthralling, mystifying and entertaining audiences for a decade. His talent has recently been recognised by e.tv, which gave him a platform to create the groundbreaking weekly show that is taking South Africa by storm. To celebrate his 10th anniversary on stage, Gola heads to Durban for two shows, where he aims to bring down the house and launch his DVD, also titled Life & Times.
