Stand-up comic Nik Rabinowitz is uNIK at last, comedy you
can believe in -yes you can! Are you living on Credit Crunch cereal? Is
your carbon footrprint a size 13? Might your party leave you with an
election hangover? There is hope, because Nik Rabinowitz is back with a
new comedy show that will leave you shouting 'Yes we can!', even if we
can't! If everything is feeling like a cheap Chinese knock-off, uNIK is a
show that will remind you that we are all unique. Except the 6.5 billion
of us who are exactly the same.
Nik was awarded the SA Comedy Award of the Year (2008) and
is hailed as one of the best comedians in the Autonomous Chinese People's
Republic of South Africa, Nik was raised on the mean, green streets of
Plumstead West, a world of ride-by shootings, piano lessons and constant
unrelenting love and financial support from family members.

He never quite recovered from seeing 12 clay pigeons
brutally gunned down before his very own eyes on the Constantia Green Belt
in 1987, and today he continues to campaign for the rights of sitting
ducks, Patricia de Lille and other small defenceless animals. But he's
not alone. Joining Nik are four unique alter-egos, including Gugs glamour
girl Portia van Zyl-Smith-Mvelaphanda, and the Sultana of Sea Point, Beryl
Rosenberg (as in female Sultan, not as in small shrivelled old raisin).
A must-see for lovers of comedy, comedy lovers, lovers and
single people as well, as well as couples, and people who are together but
not actually going out, plus newlyweds who think they might like comedy
but aren’t sure, as well as people who might be dating but don’t want to
put any pressure on each other by formalising things, oh, and also people
who hate comedy but who feel like a change, because they can, even if they
think they can’t, uNIK is unlike any other show you’ve ever seen.
