Marc Lottering’s latest solo stand-up show, I Don’t Work on Sundays, features new material expressing his views on topics that tickle his fancy, ranging from Beyoncé’s baby to his fascination with reality TV in South Africa.
Lottering will, of course, also explain exactly why he refuses to work on Sundays. The Cape Town comedian, one of South Africa’s top entertainers, has now been in the funny business for 13 years. He has entertained homesick South Africans abroad to rave reviews in London, Sydney, Perth, Toronto, Melbourne, Auckland and Dubai.

■ At some point in our lives, one in four of us will be affected by mental illness. Ruby Wax had it all — career, dream house, husband, kids, so when was the moment she realised she was the one in four? Apparently, somewhere between painting her kitchen beige (again) and realising she did not own a life manual or comprehend the contents of a children’s party bag. The American comedy doyenne will entertain audiences in Ruby Wax — Lost It, her witty one-woman mental health show, as always telling it like it is.
