Past Shows

Alan Committie is back at Theatre on the Bay in his brand-new, hilariously happy stand-up comedy show Happily Ever Laughter!! In this side-splitting new comedy revue, award-winning comic madman, Alan Committie returns to his one-man roots and explores everything from Royal Weddings to Nursery Rhymes; from the Twilight movie series to Disney princesses and all that's in-between, including a "do-it-yourself 1980’s music video" demonstration; classic arguments; and a rather extensive look at The Harry Potter Movie Franchise. But this is a one-man show with a difference! It co-stars Jo Galloway (Boeing- Boeing, Dick and I and Perfect Wedding) who joins Committie in exploring the fairy tale existence of life in 2011! The show will include sketches, characters and loads of silly observations as only Committie can provide. And Johan van der Walt, security guard extra-ordinaire, makes an appearance to talk about National Anthems. If you book now, you will get your ticket for half of what you might have paid if you ad bought two tickets! (It’s a pleasure!).

“What he lacks in Rugby skills, he makes up for in comedy!” Pieter De Villiers “I’ve hated him in every show I have seen, especially the ones he wasn’t in.” Debbie Messherscmidt - Deep River Chronicle “Although not as funny as Julius Malema, he certainly makes more sense!” Richard Looring, MD.
