Join Marc Lottering, Riaad Moosa and Nik Rabinowitz for the
much anticipated return of 3 Wiser Men, this summer season at the Baxter
Theatre in Cape Town. This completely new show is directed by David Kramer
and celebrates Capetonians' ability to laugh at and with one another.
Donveno Prins and his band joins the 3 Wiser Men and their
alter egos Auntie Merle, Beryl Rosenberg and Aysha to help us laugh our
way into 2010. Aweh! Mazeltov! Algamduri'lah!
Marc Lottering hails from Cape Town, and is considered by
many to be one of the hottest comics on offer from South Africa. The son
of a pastor, Marc's colourful upbringing is often reflected in his unique
brand of comedy that
has established him as a firm favourite with so many audiences. He has
performed to ex-pats in London, Australia, New Zealand and Toronto.
Lottering continues to keep fans entertained with his hugely successful
DVD's: From the Cape Flats With love, Big Stakes and Slap Chips and
Hallelujah!, all directed by David Kramer.

Nik Rabinowitz was raised on the mean, green streets of
Plumstead West, a world of ride-by shootings, piano lessons, and
unrelenting love and
financial support from family members. He grew up as a farm boy; climbing
trees, speaking Xhosa and commentating on his own rugby games, in
Afrikaans.
After graduating from UCT with a Business Science Degree and
a large afro, he took off with a band of traveling actors and a herd of
displaced Zimbabwean Donkeys before becoming a stand-up comedian. Awarded
South African Stand-up Comic of the Year for 2008/09, Nik currently
presents "The Week that Wasn't" for talk radio stations Cape Talk & 702,
has just completed a season of his fifth one man show, uNik, and cannot
wait to be reunited with his Muslim and Christian brethren for the
much-anticipated return of 3 Wiser Men.
Riaad Moosa, a qualified medical doctor (yes, really),
started his stage career as a comedy magician, and is now a regular
headliner on comedy circuits all over South Africa. He was part of the
very successful Laugh Out Loud comedy series on television as well as
performing at the Edinburgh
Fringe Festival with the Cape Comedy Collective. His show, Strictly Halaal
has played to sold out houses around the country. Riaad's newest show, For
the Baracka, has been performed at the Mandela Theatre in Johannesburg.
David Kramer has directed three of Marc Lottering's award
winning shows, as well as his own musicals, both locally and abroad.
