Techni-Coloured
Today we opened the show with stand-up comedian Stuart Taylor, he is better known as the presenter of Going Nowhere Slowly. He spoke to us about his latest production Techni-Coloured.
‘Techni-Coloured is a blend of stand-up comedy, sketch comedy and Taylor’s signature magic. Stuart acts as our tour guide through his personal identity crisis and paranoia whilst destroying with ease the myths of preconceived stereotypes. Techni-Coloured sees Stuart tackle everything form a technical manual on the ups and downs of marriage to facing his fears on his well documented travels, all with his deliciously un-PC yet laid back style’
The show started on 12 December 2007, and has received good reviews. The show runs at the Artscape Theatre until 6 January 2008.
Tickets are R70 per person Wednesdays to Saturdays @ 20h15 and Sundays 18h00, and R50 per person Tuesdays @ 19h00 and Saturdays @ 14h30.
