Carl Joshua Ncube brings Comedy Kings to HIFA

The HIFA COMEDY FESTIVAL is back with an exciting lineup according to trailblazing comedian Carl Joshua Ncube.

This is is the fourth time the comedian has produced stand up comedy shows at HIFA and explains that this year’s lineup is about positioning Zimbabwe stand up comedy on a global stage.

The lineup includes comedians with television credits on some of the top media platforms in the world.

Countries represented are Malaysia, South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe. According to Ncube the comedians coming to Zimbabwe have two roles firstly to make people laugh but also give insight into what it is like to be on platforms like NETFLIX, performing in sold-out Arenas and navigating the broadcasting space in South Africa.

“The comics are amazing but we also need to position ourselves as a country on international media platforms to grow the comics and also the demand for comedy specials across the continent,” said Ncube.

The 6-day HIFA comedy program produced and directed by Carl Joshua Ncube will feature Kavin Jay from Malaysia, Salvado from Uganda and Nqoba Ngcobo from South Africa.

FEEL GOOD AFRICA

The launch of the stand-up comedy program begins with Carl Joshua Ncube introducing some of his friends in an ensemble show with Kavin Jay from Malaysia, Nqoba Ngcobo from South Africa. This comedy show will introduce audiences to some of the talent coming out to perform at HIFA.

SALVADO

All the way from Uganda comes Salvado Idringi a juggernaut of African comedy comes to Zimbabwe for the very first time to tell you the rib cracking story of a village called OMBOKOLO.

We did? Well, it is SPECIAL!!!!

NQOBA NGCOBO

CARL JOSHUA NCUBE

This is the year he turns 39 and Carl Joshua Ncube is super frustrated that he is not old enough to run for PRESIDENT and will be delivering the MANIFESTO that never was in this rib cracking and direct take on the last days of Robert Mugabe and the advent of the bullet trains and many other exciting political promises the 115 political candidates are giving the electorate because after all, WE COUNT!!!!
