SKEWS ME (Press Release)
DYLAN AT HIS BEST
Dylan Skews is one of South Africa’s fastest rising comedians. Winner of the Nandos Comedy Showdown in 2009 and the winner of Phat Joe’s comedy show in 2010 where he won the title “Cape Town’s next comedian”. SKEWS ME is his debut one man show starting on 14th February at On Broadway. The show will run everyday besides Sunday’s until the 26th February. As a trained actor, he laces an effortless charm through performance rich sketches and showcases his signature laid back, yet edgy, performance style and interesting brand of delivery allowing the audience into the hilarious thoughts inside his head.
Watch funny videos from the show. Slipping in and out of elaborate impersonations, twisting and turning through a broad anthology of jokes that range from observational material to his unique life experiences. His style is a newfangled hybrid that bounces between the love- able one liner hedonist Mitch Hedberg and the outlandish Richard Pryor. A noticeable component of his craft is that there is no overt axe to grind outside of pursuing good comedy. Skews has managed to avoid the tired anti consumerist cum counter cultural noise most aspiring acts allow their punchlines to get eclipsed by without sacrificing his indie texture. A captivating blend of edgy city boy antics and pure accessible fun. This new kid on the block has wasted no time establishing himself on South Africa’s underground comedy circuit and is set to explode on the SA comedy scene. This hot new act is truly hilarious and will have the audience in stitches! The show runs for 70 minutes without an interval. Tuesdays and Wednesdays, as well as Monday 14th February 2011 tickets are ’2 for 1′. TO PURCHASE TICKETS CALL 021 424 1194/5 OR AT ANY BRANCH OF COMPUTICKET: Dylan’s Comedy show Dylan’s web page
