Pharanoid
Funny Party
Comedy / Graham Hotel
Directed by the visionary theatre-maker Andi Colombo, Pharanoid is a culmination of Ntobeko’s six years of stand-up comedy, and a hilarious and tightly-orchestrated reflection on being South African, from a silly yet thoughtful comedian. Frankly, his work, as Cue Online put it, is “sure to make you fall in love with dark humour”.

About the Artists

Ntobeko Ximba finds it thrilling to write about himself in the third person. Within 6 months of starting stand-up at the iconic Armchair Theatre in 2018, Ntobeko was performing at the Cape Town Comedy Club (RIP) and the Jive Cape Town Funny festival. He even graced the famous Los Angeles Laugh Factory stage that same year. Since then he has starred in the Savanna Newcomers showcase on DSTV and toured SA with The Proudly Problematic Tour including National Arts Festival for the past two years. He’s been called “such a funny dude” by close friends.
