Mel die Storieverteller is an Afrikaans comedian from South Africa. With more than 340,000 social media followers and a string of local sold out shows, she heard the cries from across the waters and will be making her International debut in New Zealand.
In this hilarious Afrikaans stand up comedy show Mel shares stories from her ‘deurmekaarsak’ (confused bag). A bag that carries tales of experiences and life events that have left her terribly confused. No better time to unpack than in her mid-thirties in front of strangers.
The first time Mel experienced confusion was when she was only 3 years old in Mrs. Dragon’s umbrella class – where she had a strange encounter with her best friend, Lucinda. After this, Mel made peace with the fact that school will be filled with many more absurdities, and it was. She shares her humorous point of view on the insane obsession with fishing, straight couples, the South African anthem, smart phones, and fancy cars.
Mel die Storieverteller has a unique way of compacting and exaggerating the most ridiculously funny stories. She hits you with the truth, but it’s a soft blow disguised in interesting tales and unexpected punchlines. Expect some crowd interaction and very energetic delivery.
