Basketmouth is set to become the first Nigerian to host comedy gig and TV show, “Comedy Central Presents…Live At Parker’s”. Basketmouth has been contracted by Africa’s only 24 hour comedy channel to headline his own edition of the show in Johannesburg, South Africa, on 24 April alongside other South African comedians. Basketmouth will bring his own inimitable brand of comedy to the live gig at legendary comedy venueParker’s Comedy & Jive, followed by a special telecast of Comedy Central Presents Basketmouth Live at Parker’s, airing on DStv.
The comedian is “really buzzed to be reppin’ Naija at Comedy Central Presents…Live at Parker’s in April! So watch out: the Nigerian invasion has begun!”
Commented Evert Van Der Veer, Head of Comedy Central, Africa, “It’s been our long-held ambition to include Nigerian comedians and comedy in our programming lineup - and what better way to start than with Basketmouth - the king of Nigerian comedy himself!”
Launched just over 12 months ago, Comedy Central has lured South Africa’s top comics into hosting its regular monthly stand-up gig. Among the many funnymen and women to grace the stage at Parker’s Comedy & Jive have been Chris Forrest, Kurt Schoonraad, Tumi Morake, Al Prodgers, Joey Rasdien, Barry Hilton, Loyiso Gola, Tats Nkonzo and Stuart Taylor.
