Alan Committie – COMEDY GOLD – Jo’Burg Season 2025

Alan Committie – COMEDY GOLD

Pieter Toerien Theatre, Montecasino 

19 Feb – 16 Mar

In Comedy Gold, Committie will once again award comedy medals to all the quibbles, foibles, outrageous inconsistencies and multiple inefficiencies that make up modern living in 2024.

From elections and appalling selections, though Airbnbs and neighbourhood Whatsapp groups but never ignoring Olympic shenanigans and dieticians, this show will be filled with all the customary wordplay, physical hi-jinx and surreal detours into fresh perspectives that you associate with this jester.

Also: a flipchart. Always.

Although not a trained athlete in the traditional sense, Committie is a highly respected and well regarded member of the Lower Bergvliet Amateur Association 7th team badminton squad (reserves).

And doesn’t eat carbs on a Tuesday.

Did I mention there will be flipchart?

The show is coached by Chris Weare who may or may not be on a course of steroids but never for the reason you guessed.
