Deliciously funny, Hot Masala Comedy is back at Carnival City
Mardi Gras Theatre to host comedy at its best.
Hot Masala Comedy is back at Carnival City after a sell-out show in 2018.
This all new, deliciously funny show features stand-up comics and viral video stars Masood Boomgaard and Bash with Tash, who have collectively earned millions of views on social media platforms and performed at packed-out venues across the country.
Also in the mix is comedian Logie Naidoo and rising star Doc Comedy.
Together the quartet will take the audience on a hilarious cultural adventure, tapping into their experiences growing up in Indian communities in different parts of Durban and telling anecdotes about over-bearing parents, drunk uncles and downright crazy grandparents.
The show will also be peppered with great gags on everyday things like relationships, the economy, politics and social media.
There’s bound to be something for everyone.
Bash with Tash (real name Natashia Portrag) shot to fame in December 2016 when she spontaneously uploaded a comic commentary by herself on Facebook which soared to hundreds of thousands of views.
Subsequent videos only heightened her popularity and now she has legions of fans locally and abroad.
Bash with Tash is best known for her incredible ability to improvise on stage and her interaction with the crowd.
Her spontaneity ensures that no two shows are the same.
