Trapped in the elections fever? Celebrating 30 years of…EISH! DemoCrazy: A Roast of South Africa Fired Up by Comedy Central and Nando’s

As the excitement of elections fills the air, Comedy Central and Nando's are thrilled to announce a one-of-a-kind celebration of South Africa's 30 years of democracy. Get ready to laugh, reminisce, and witness the burns as these two brands, known for funny, prepare to fire up 'DemoCrazy: A Roast of South Africa'.

Picture this; a gathering of South Africa's finest comedians and special guests, all coming together to deliver a legendary grilling of our beautiful democracy. Manning the tongs, you will find Kagiso Lediga whose creative direction promises an evening of uproarious laughter and heartfelt reflection.

In the upcoming 'DemoCrazy: A Roast of South Africa', Comedy Central and Nando's are channeling our nation's penchant for perseverance and resilience into a format that celebrates our journey with humour and heart (and just a sprinkle of Mzansi cynicism). 

Set against the backdrop of a nation marked by both Springbok triumphs and Bafana tribulations, this comedy variety show is not just entertainment; it's a testament to our ability to laugh in the face of adversity and find strength in our shared experiences.

Adding to the excitement, Nontobeko Sibiya from Nando's expresses their enthusiasm for the event, stating, "We're a brand that is passionate about South Africans, and cares about the same things they care about. We are thrilled to be a part of something that celebrates our collective wins and also chuckles at some of the bloopers. DemoCrazy: A Roast of South Africa promises to be a hilarious celebration of our nation's quirks and complexities. "

'DemoCrazy: A Roast of South Africa' will be recorded live on Wednesday, May 22nd at 19:00 at The Lyric Theatre, Gold Reef City Casino and be aired on Comedy Central DStv 122 at a later date. Limited tickets, starting from R150, are available through webtickets.co.za.
