Bafunny Bafunny 2: Bafunnier

Last year South Africa played host to the Fifa Soccer World Cup and Hunta Live put on a show for the world in the form of Bafunny Bafunny. This year, with the Rugby World Cup happening soon Bafunny Bafunny is going on a new rugby themed tour of South Africa and comedy fans everywhere are in for a treat.




The line up has changed a bit this year with two new players, Eugene Khoza and Stuart Taylor, replacing Mark Lottering and Kagiso Ladiga. With new acts, comes new material. But will the rest of the cast, Trevor Noah, Barry Hilton, John Vlismas, Loyiso Gola, Nik Rabinowitz, Mark Banks, come out and give us the same jokes as last year, or will we be treated to fresh material? I am assuming the latter since last year's show was mostly about people coming to South Africa and the state of SA soccer. So this one being rugby themed, means that the material should be rugby orientated. If this is true, this could be a great show to go watch.


However, if you missed out on the show last year, because you bought 13 soccer tickets, then it doesn't really matter. You have to go see this show!

Champions!

SA’S COMEDY TEAM IS BACK TO DEFEND THEIR TITLE!

“Bafunny Bafunny” – South Africa’s star-studded team of comedians was formed in 2010 as an answer during World Cup fever to the question: “What if Comedy was a sport? Who will represent South Africa at the World Cup of Funny?” The resulting team’s tour, both locally and internationally, made not only comedy history, but created comedy heroes with their sold-out performances in front of over 60,000 fans locally.

Now, after months of preparation, the 2010 World Cup of Funny Trophy holders are back and they are ready to do it all over again in the lead-up to the Rugby World Cup, this time, with their aptly named tour “The Odd Shaped Ball” that will tour Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town this October.

Starring Trevor Noah, Barry Hilton, John Vlismas, Loyiso Gola, Nik Rabinowitz, Mark Banks and newcomers Eugene Khoza and Stuart Taylor – this is one game you have to be at!
